Buffistas

Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

[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, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'd have never thought I'd watch a story about a fucked up guy who's clawing his way to the top, sleeps in a box, is generally an ass, but I'm so madly in love with Profit, I'm beside myself.

Heh, see I don't think Profit could have been more tailer-made for me if they'd called it The Show Made Especially For Jess So She Will Learn The Pain Of Falling In Love With A Show That Fox Will Cancel After Only Four Eps Die Fox Die Die Die You Profit-Cancelling Bastards.

(Also, I lurve the premise of Drive. It's no accident that I'm missing this week's TAR to watch the premiere.)

Is that Danny Bonaduce in that second photo?

Monique, secret confession, I kinda love Danny Bonaduce.

No worries. I won't tell anyone.

Personally, I find him kind of manic, but I don't really mind him. It just seemed like a random thing to be seeing at 8 in the morning. I feel much better now that I know it really was him, and I wasn't projecting some sort of latent Bondaduce thoughts out into the world on a whim.

Cause that would be a sign of an id gone amuck. He is manic, but I liked him when he was a radio guy here a few years ago.

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

OMG! Drive is ALMOST HERE.

I'm a little excited.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Polter Cow is me. I don't think I've been this excited about a show... ever. I'm not sure why, but I am.

Because it's Tim, it's okay to invest in it if it grabs you, because he won't Abrams himself into a corner, leading to lame.

This is the key for me. The premise doesn't matter so much to me, as long as it's done well. Buffy sounded hugely lame to me, until I saw it. Wonderfalls sounded lame to me, but I gave it a shot because of Tim, and loved it. Firefly sounded kinda lame to me, until I saw it because of Joss, and fell head over heals.

On the other hand, Lost sounded good, and it pissed me off so much that I stopped watching after the first season.

I don't think I've been this excited about a show... ever. I'm not sure why, but I am.

I think this is the first show I've ever known about beforehand for a long time before its premiere. I mean, I read the pilot way back in...July or something. So it's been a while.

The cars! Complete with pictures. None of Danny Bonaduce, though.
