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

How much do I love the possibility of getting to hear a television character call something "craptastic"?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I had a meeting at NBC last week and the executive's assistants told me "Drive" was their favorite pilot script (they rank the competish).

Ack! Variety-speak!

We had a television character call something "sucktastic" on VM a couple weeks ago.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Russell T. Davies had a character use the term chavtastic in Doctor Who s2 ep1 "New Earth".

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

Just ordered it, David

A sound investment. It's like a very cold cynical and tonic served with a twist of lime.

Even after watching Arrested Development and Adult Swim shows and various other boundary pushing efforts, I still watched Action and kept thinking, "They aren't really going to go there are they? They did!"

Um.

Or, not "fun", because of the gasping and the oh-my-goodness and the ouches in my head. So some other word, that's less merry than fun, but still keeps the meaning?

Exhilarating? As that's what came to mind while reading your "ramblings".

I can't believe no one has picked this line up and snuggled it and fed it pudding and soup and called it George.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I can't believe no one has picked this line up and snuggled it and fed it pudding and soup and called it George.

It struck entirely too close to home.
