That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

[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.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I got banned from FOX's forums for saying Stand Off is canceled, so can't view the carnage that must be the Drive forums.

Somehow they haven't caught up to me yet. Though one poster did report me for being mean and negative. I was crushed.

It's ugly over there. Don't look.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Fanboy Confidential (best podcast name ever) has interviewed Tim. With your ears, go forth if you choose: [link]

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

This sucks. And as if to add insult to injury, I think this is a House I've already seen.

Bah!

What is even happening?

jengod, you're so deserving of your board name.

You're special. The rest of us are jaded, bitter, and tapped out (of outrage). Well, except for the guy who has apparently decided that "un-canceling" the show is a workable goal.

Well, I'm too tapped out (of everything) to ever campaign for anything, ever again. But as God is my witness, I'll never be too tapped out to piss and moan.

The funniest comment I've seen came from someone wanting to get all the Sanjaya voters from AI to go and sign one of the petitions.

Nicotine. On my monitor.

You know what's mean? The local affiliate still aired scheduling panels/frames/whatever from Comcast that listed Drive coming up at 8. Followed by the network's saying Nope SUCKERS.

Tim's interview is about 24 minutes in. It was conducted pre air.

Heh. I'm getting "Wait, hold up, where's the show?" messages at DtR, which I haven't had time to update until now.

Poor people who had to find out the hard way via the 1,000th airing of House this week.

Yep, my inbox is full of them too Monique.

The latest one;

Bless their hearts.

Tim's podcast thing is quite entertaining. I didn't realise one of The Inside characters came from something else Tim was developing.

Stop making fun of me, Denise.

I thought it was sort of cleverly funny at first. Until I realized that Kristen was serious...

And, from the stolen from elsewhere files:

Ratings are based on 5 minutes of staying on the same channel. so if you change the channel on a commercial and turn right back onto fox, each person that does that will give them 4 rating points per person. hence, if 1 million people watch the show and change the channel back and forth on commercials, thats 4 million ratings.

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

I hope people really do send spark plugs to Fox, as was suggested.
