Weird coincidence -- one of the original Nancy Drew movies from it looks like the '40s is just starting on TCM.
No coincidence - TCM always does that with new movies coming out. I'm sure they knew a new Nancy Drew had opened.
Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I think she was pointing out that it coincided with our talking about Nancy Drew books, not with the movie coming out. Unless you're claiming TCM is planning all our conversations... are they listening right now?

Oh, so we could think of an old movie we'd like to see again and start discussing the book it was from here and then it would pop up on TCM. We would be doing their scheduling.

Because books.

Yes, this.
Although sumi's suggestion is awesome.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Slate writes the ending to HP.
Points upthread and to cable drama.
