[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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

You've got to be kidding!

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I'm kind of with Dana on being all set with car races, but I figure like the fights in Buffy, that's the part where I can pay less attention.

Yeah, Car Race Schmar Race. ITA that it's where I don't have to pay attention, or where I get to go to the bathroom.

Amy Acker playing the helpless victim and hostage. I hope she picks up some agency and works against her captors rather than just screaming "Help, save me!" from the train tracks she's tied to in every episode.

Well, I wouldn't be surprised if Kathryn is really in on it and working with the sponsors.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

ARGH.

That's all I'm going to say.

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

I do have a minor casting quibble -- it'd be nice if some of the recognizable actors turned out to actually be just random strangers, and some of the unknown extras turned out to be working for the race. So far, it's been too easy to spot the plants because they're all pinging my "Oh, it's that guy!"-o-meter.

It's not that I'm the only one, it's that I'm the honest one.

Regarding the ratings: fuck.

So, what was on CBS last night?


Amy - Apr 16, 2007 6:11:38 am PDT #5481 of 10001
Because books.

The Amazing Race is on CBS from 8-9 EST.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The Amazing Race, for one.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

It's not like the other networks had a whole lot going on event wise either. That concerns me more than anything.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

The other networks were empty. Drama -- they had Desperate Housewives. That was it.

Don't want to be negative, but... Uhm. It's done worse than Firefly did on a Friday night.

Let's see how it does tonight (but it's against the dancing bloody monkey show).

The advanced downloaders must have been the higher tech Firefly fans. That's the only way I can account for the interest.
