Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
if you're suddenly exposed to the vacuum of space, you're better off letting the air out of your lungs
I knew that! Because I had to talk about it in a Farscape recap. And because of Jericho, I learned how to build a fallout shelter. And because of Angel, I learned.... hm. Well, some poetry, I guess.
Studio 60: This is the most absurd fucking premise for an hour of television I have ever seen IN MY LIFE. With one email I could get you 25 writers who could go in that room and put up a show. Can I promise you they could do it every week? No. But they would walk in with their A-Game and this week would be taken care of. And some of them WOULD be able to ring it every week. Hell, I could get you 50 writers a HUNDRED writers who would do something besides sit there and mope for a fucking week. Each and every one of them would take their shot. Each and every one of them knows how it feels to have a sketch die already.
But Trudy, they're NEW!
Bored with pi pie?
Here's a project you don't see every day.... a step by step of the construction of a pie with the topology of a sphere from 20 triangular modules attached with magnets, wow!
Does a catchphrase have to be repeated outside of the context of the show? Fat Albert's catchphrase is "Hey, hey, hey!" because it's his and recognisable as such. Being reused (and I have no idea if that is or not) is something different, no? Personally, I think "Space, the final frontier" as a scripted piece of the show does count, but how often is it used? Much of that list isn't that reused anywhere I see it, not without it being a reference to the show itself.
I did have a "Does Wayne Brady have to choke a bitch?" moment this evening, but the "Wayne Brady" in question had never seen the show, so it was a lonely moment.
I checked the IMDB quote page for the X-Files, and t's certainly something they've played with:
"One day, you'll ask me to speak of a truth - of the miracle of your birth. To explain what is unexplained. And if I falter or fail on this day, know there is an answer, my child, a sacred imperishable truth, but one you may never hope to find alone. Chance meeting your perfect other, your perfect opposite - your protector and endangerer. Chance embarking with this other on the greatest of journeys - a search for truths fugitive and imponderable. If one day this chance may befall you, my son, do not fail or falter to seize it. The truths are out there."
"I'm more certain than ever the truth is out there, Scully."
"I'm not going to give up. I can't give up. Not as long as the truth is out there."
"You're in the basement because they're afraid of you, of your relentlessness, and because they could drop you in the middle of the desert and tell you the truth is out there, and you'd ask them for a shovel."
Kashi:
If a friend had a scheduled C-section today, what's the standard length of stay?
My scheduled C was on a Wednesday morning and I went home on Sunday evening. I think 4-5 days is about normal if there are no complications.
Megan, I think you have a problem. I think we need to stage an intervention.
Problem? Problem? I have no problem.
Oooo....cute shoes!
In other news, I can't believe Pam and Kid Rock have split up. First Britney and K-Fed, now Pam and Kid Rock.
Is there any hope for the institution of marriage? Is this the impact of allowing same-sex marriage?? t /sarcasm
GHA. I killed the thread and the board. Come back!
