I'll shut up for a bit after this, but I thought someone here might want to read this. [link]
'A Hole in the World'
Premium Cable: The Cursing Costs Extra
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
erika,
I stopped reading dailykos after kos posted a really offensive article about Michelle Obama dissing some random politician in Arkansas. I thought it was really in poor taste and sounded like something out of Fox News.
I never knew about that. Well, would you like me to copy it here? I don't *have* to, but I could.
No! I can go over and read that for myself. :-) I'm not boycotting the site, just letting you know why I stopped my rss feeds and therefore wouldn't see your posts ordinarily.
I'm seriously not sweating that. On a big day, fifteen people read what I write on there. Which is still fourteen more than my poor beleaguered mother who is too much of a hippie to outright ask me to find a fandom interest that doesn't feature "motherfucker" so prominently. So, no, you're not keeping me off the Rec list.
My friend Nancy works on that show, so we are going to the premiere at the Cinerama dome. We don't have HBO, so we've never, um, actually seen the show (even though I know I'd like it and we are planning to buy it on DVD). I don't mind jumping ahead and it will be cool to see an episode on the big screen!
Eeeee! I am excited beyond belief about True Blood! I'm even to the point where I might get HBO and have people over to watch it!
You totally should!!!
Wonderful essay, erika. Will be starting the next round pronto.
