I was tempted to do something about "The Perfect Couple," but since it didn't air, hating Paul won out.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

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
Aw. Paul = Tim. You like Tim, right?

Of course. But no matter how many times you say he's Paul, I think Tim knows what personal boundaries are.
The fact that I identified pretty strongly with Rebecca's lack of social skills may be a factor.

Well, he does have a moat. And there's the whole turret thing.
So he at least gets his own personal boundaries.

Trust my rage
I really liked Paul. I thought he was the most normal of the bunch. I wonder what that says about me.

My favorites were Rebecca and Web. I like the dark.

Hey. New board.
Rebecca owns me.
Signed,
Despite having *ahemmed* all of the unaired-in-the-US inside, I haven't watched it because I know it will fuck me up like whoa and want to be free enough to enjoy it. Next week, maybe. GOD I wish that show had survived.

I liked Rebecca and Web right from the start, but the full-blown Katie Finneran love kicked in during "Everything Nice" for me.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I liked and identified with Rebecca and loved to hate Web, but I loved Mel and Danny. Paul, necessary to counterweight the Rebecca/Web dynamic, otherwise, a little too Intensely Caring and Righteous for me.
