[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.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I didn't like the two women in the threesome that got left behind - well, I didn't like any of the three - but for some reason I was glad to see them still going in the preview.

I was very happy to see that the two black contestants we've had focus on so far weren't immediately eliminated from the race for good with their cluelessness being their final character note. That was bugging me until the previews showed them getting back in the game tomorrow.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Liked very much. My dad lives very near Jupiter in Jensen.

Speaking of location, Mr. Jane could swear, and would like conformation, that when they were supposed to be at the Cape that it was Pasadena, and that that building with the gold statue was the headquarters of the Worldwide Church of God (his former church).

It's been over for a little over an hour and I wish I was still watching. Thank goodness for another hour tomorrow.

One Hot Burrito!

Tim, well done, sir. Just watched and dug.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

OMG hated the song over the credits. Sorry, Tim, but it's just wrong for the pace and the energy level of the show.

I watched with a fannish pal, and as soon as we got the flashback she figured out that that was Corinna's backstory, which was awesome. Hence the stowaway and the lying and everything. I'm sure she's got more going on, but I like her motives.

That was, in fact, very very fun. Wheee! I love all the other music and so far the characters are interesting (although blondie who hooked up with Wendy is annoying), and I'm already worrying about who is going to die.

Anyway, fun! Can't wait for tomorrow night. (Although Fox's teasers are far too detailed...)

Well, I wasn't sure ahead of time, but I really liked it. Good work, Tim and Kristen! I even got a family friend hooked enough to switch from Dancing with the Stars tomorrow. Toaster for me!

Watching with family, there were some interruptions, so I have a couple of questions:

  • I saw that Tully stole Alan's car, but later he was driving in the truck again. How did this happen?
  • Did anyone catch what the waitress said to Wendy?

I'm on my aunt's dialup, so have to run, but looking forward to tomorrow's ep!

All is well that ends in pizza.

It died immediately out of the gas station.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That was really really fun, even when it was tense-making.

Wheee!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Which made Mr. Jane laugh so hard he scared the dogs into barking for the next 10 minutes.

I REALLY liked it.

I hope it stays. Not being on Friday, it might even have a shot. But that is one gloriously crack-addled show.

LOVED the "I think I shoulda shot you." line.

Thanks Daniel. That must have happened at one of those points when someone stood in front of the tv, talking. These moments were fortunately brief.
