Bravo bought TWOP and guess what that means?
Spike: Or maybe Captain Forehead was feeling a little less special. Didn't like me crashing his exclusive club, another vampire with a soul in the world. Angel: You're not in the world, Casper.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Bloody hell. I was reading through that article to find out if there was any mention of possible slanting due to network ownership, and discovered that Fametracker was started by someone I know.
Jaysus. The world is too small.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Drive was already set to be recapped by Strega before this...thing. Which confuses me, and I don't know whether it's good or bad or neutral.

I always get a little confused and weirded out when Big Corporations "buy" websites. I'm not really sure what it entails, per se, and whether it will mean Changes in the website itself.

Was it? I somehow hadn't realized that. What about Brothers and Sisters?
They're supposed to be getting more recappers or something as a result of this. If they're just having the same - I don't know what changes. (Other than the forum is irritating me with it's inability to remember me and also, not allowing me to see my subscribed topics.)

There's no relation to Bravo buying TWoP and Drive being recapped. That this is happening at about the same time is a coincidence. (As far as I know. Bravo & NBC are related, right? But Bravo & Fox are not.)
(I'm totally psyched that the Wire is being added to the roster! Although I pity the recapper assigned to it. that's some complicated plotting!)

I just hope that they stop using so many pages to recap a show.

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

What I never understood about that is that they say they sell advertising based on page views, but I swear 99% of their ads are for themselves. How exactly does that make them money?
