I only look at EW for the pictures. It's like my reverse Playboy.
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

You deserve an autographed copy.
I'd say it was a fairly safe bet that you could get one were you so inclined, Allyson.
Actually, I've known that they were into Firefly, but hadn't realized that at least one of the Unshelved guys frequented here. Hmmm. I wonder who it is. And now I'm kinda regretting not talking to them more when they were here for conference.

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
just a little perturbed about Sami getting ready to marry her rapist on DAYS
That shit again? People handwaved it in the 80's when it was Luke and Laura. I am really disappointed in DAYS. I used to watch it religiously.

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 need to step awaaaay from the internets. Whenever I see a post about how the writers are greedy and shitty people, I get all, "THAT'S MY KRISTEN YOU DOUCHEBAG!" And then i have to choke a bitch.
Hmph.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was at a wedding last night where the best man was a screenwriter. He made a point of saying he was making his speech up as he went along.
So freaking LA.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Wow.
Ouch. That's some shitty timing. I don't even watch The Shield, and I want this strike to end quickly so he can work on the series finale, just on principle. That really blows.

The soap operas will hit harder. When they go next week or so, that'll piss some people off.
not so much, actually. Days, The Young and the Restless, The Bold and the Beautiful and As the World Turns have enough scripts to take them through at least january, while Guiding Light could be OK for another month beyond that. One Life to Live, General Hospital and All My Children are also are set through the beginning of the year.
people are actually blaming the writers? WTF??

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

There are some people who are of the opinion that writers are all Very Rich. There was a bit in the press the other day about the average writer earning $200k a year or some such.
