There's a spoiler for the pilot plot towards the end of the interview, but they give a loud and long-ish warning. It was followed by The AV Club on overlooked dark comedies. Good listening for a weekday afternoon on the way back from taking my mother to a doctor!

My sister in law, Tracy Turpen, is a photographer specializing in weddings and fine art portraiture is doing a fund raiser for Haiti now through the end of February.
She's set up a gallery of her fine art photography, mostly landscapes of Hawaii, New Zealand, Australia and Costa Rica and 100% of the money will be donated.

Hi everyone.
I joined after meeting several of you thru the wedding reception weekend here in LA. I am working on following the discussions... I think the key is to log in more often.... Forgive me if it's a lot of lurking and not so much posting for a bit here :)
And yes, I have many bunnies. They are cute and fuzzy and get into lots of trouble....
