From Firefly, non-spoilery:
Madrigal (I think):
I have a sinking suspicion that the Jossling has been named William, 'cause Joss does seem the type to willingly name a child Will Whedon.
billytea:
Side note: in my section at work, 60% of all the employees (including me) are called Bill. It's like Joss is scripting my office. Each day I go to work in the knowledge that one of us could die at any time.
I think that was amyth.

They all've got lower-case names that start with "a". What do you
want
of me?

Don't you know that there is no such thing as a rhetorical question on this board?

So, wait, in Australia, someone from a Trollope novel hosts Wheel of Fortune?? Good LORD, people!
Wait, does that mean other fictional characters exist down there too? <considers buying ticket to go ambush a few favorites...>
Angus G -
Not only that meara, all our puzzles are titles of Victorian novels. We're very educated here...well, all except the contestant who once had to buy a vowel for "M_DDL_M_RCH".
In The Two Towers (whitefonted JIC, though not particularly spoilery):
Amber
The Ents were fabulous
Betsy
Treebeard! Darling! Love what you did with the bark.
Huh... Good thing you whited that out... That
would
have ruined things for me..
I lob them in, Connie knocks them out of the park, in natter:
DX -
The Core looks like it could be the Worst. Movie. Ever. It looks like it's basically Armageddon, but going down, rather than up, and Jon opined Friday night that's probably exactly how it was pitched to the execs who greenlighted it.
Theodosia -
Yeah, the lack of The Core trailer was sad, because it's impossible to really convey how truly awful it was, like Campbell's Condensed Armageddon Soup, all in a minute-and-a-half trailer form.
