GA is kinda the gold standard for industry midgets, isn't she? Well, her and Tom Cruise.
You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Fargo would totally use 'foamy' as an adjective.

Stark's tasty, ruthless exterior truly hides a far bigger inner geek than we have yet guessed
Heh, this is what I want to answer to be. Hell, the man build his own artificial person and bonded with it.

Wouldn't Seth Green be in there as well? Also? Dustin Hoffman who's both shorter than Cruise and the original inspiriation for GET SHORTY.

It takes true brevity to get a tallification-box named after you.
I think Seth Green doesn't count, because he is just like, "Dude, I am short. So?" Whereas, with Scully, it was all about pretending that Mulder didn't have to crouch down to whisper in her ear.

I think Dustin Hoffman's allowed to be short onscreen too. Tom Cruise, on the other hand, is tall, like American heroes are.
You know.

Gotcha. I didn't realize the attempt at fooling was one of the defining elements.

...huh. Anyone else a little scared?
Oh boy, yeah. I think we have good ideas and criticisms, both individually and collectively. But I'm not terribly confident of how effective our suggestions would be when applied to the potential audience as a whole.
I mean, Wonderfalls was a really good show that appealed in many ways to a lot of the board posters. And it lasted four weeks, possibly because we may have made up about half its viewership.
Though I did find myself reading transcripts and thinking wistfully of all the Chiana/Jool that people didn't write.
I think people imagined the noises Jool would make and then flung their keyboards out the window in terror.
Tom Cruise, on the other hand, is tall, like American heroes are.
It's just all the hot air providing bouyancy.

Actually, it's the engrams, but don't tell him that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
GA is kinda the gold standard for industry midgets, isn't she?
I think it's that I haven't seen her off a Scully box much, so it was striking. Really the enormous actor head was the relevant part.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
There was a guy dressed up at DragonCon as the Burger King guy. I was disturbed and did not take a picture.
