[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.

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

This isn't explicitly related to anything here, but the word choice in the last sentence made me wonder:

Fox is retooling its strategy as it heads into the Thursday-night fray this fall.

Instead of sending its 9 p.m. staple, The O.C., into battle against CSI and Grey's Anatomy every week, the network announced Wednesday that it has ordered up a mere 16 episodes of the rich-kid drama for 2006-07.

If the network airs all 16 new episodes in a row, it will be out of O.C. by February, giving Fox the opportunity to take a midseason replacement for a test drive, Variety reported Wednesday.

FOX's "strategy" has me puzzled in general. They just picked up the actors' options on two pilots that they didn't order in May. But, I guess, now they're thinking that maybe they want to order them after all. Then again, maybe not. We'll have to check back with them in September.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Kristen ? Can this be the RS - SN thread? I did not watch last night. I find tonight painful.

I kinda thought it was already. (hee) Though, now that TWoP has gifted us with shiny new forums (recaps!), I ended up posting my thoughts there.

In only slightly related news, I am listening to the new JT song and OMIGOD why do I like it so much? I'm having LILY flashbacks.

I want to go out dancing right the fuck now.

Art Crawl!!!

msbelle! Can you believe that Matt chose that song?!!!

And seriously, he was the best singer of the three but could you be more wrong-headed?

And uh, I can't decide of the other two who was more underwhelming.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

sumi, I agree that Matt was completely wrong-headed.

Of the other two? My vote is Phil for being more boring. But Chris's Roxanne hurt me yesterday.

Art Crawl!!!

Well, could you believe that the band SuperWrongva praised Phil's singing tonight??!!! WTF are they listening to?

No, I find Chris far more boring. Although, he looks better with curlier hair. And I so wanted to root for Matt given that he's a Chicago boy. Also, Phil did make that joke about punching Lukas -- got to like that.

I wished they would have just cleaned house and made all three leave. Really.

I still don't understand the Duran Duran choice. I mean, you're dealing with musicians from Motley Crue, Metallica and Guns 'n Roses and you choose Duran Duran???

Art Crawl!!!

Yeah, he was an idiot.

Okay, for now I still think that Dilana is the right choice. You know. . . after hearing her perform one whole song.

Hee! Dilana's my fav so far. Storm reminds me Lindsey Lohan and annoys me. Lukas seems too much like a Cure wannabe.
