It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

The Minearverse 4: Support Group for Clumsy People  

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

There's no way I can write about why I loved Buffy so without being smarmy.

I just really loved my girl.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

There's no way I can write about why I loved Buffy so without being smarmy.

I just really loved my girl.

Those two sentences would probably be sufficient.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

So a West Wing, about TV? Kind like SportsNight?

Those two sentences would probably be sufficient.

Except I think she's supposed to be writing more than that.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Only not sports. Sketch comedy.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Kat, I live in hope.

I told him, no, I'd recently come to accept that TV was a hobby of mine, the way some people follow sports.

This is the best way I've heard it put, ever. And I'm utterly charmed by the sentence.

Hey. New board.

Kat, I read what is supposedly an early version of the pilot, and I could see multiple avenues for boy-loves-boy longing. And at least one for girl-loves-girl.

Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford are the Danny/Casey I believe. But this time they are comedy writers. Here's the Wiki:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_60_on_the_Sunset_Strip

(OMG, MP looks terrifying in that picture.)

I don't suppose we could just get Sports Night back. No? Peter Krause's free! Six Feet Under is done! I'm sure Felicity Huffman isn't that attached to Desperate Housewives!
