the people we should actually consult are the ones who are working late, toddler wrangling, or who have other activities conflicting.
I can't make it this week, because I won't be home until 7:30 or 8:00. That's just this week though.
You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both.

Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) 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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Well, Amy worked late last week, and Anne or tiggy or Ailleann had a conflict, and Plei was wrangling the bean. I've got no problem delaying till 8:00 board time if it will give peeps a chance to partcipate.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Did we do CSPW Dead Things and now are at No Exit?
I am bendy on the times we watch. So whatever we decide, I will likely be there.

I mean, sad now.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
i would never think to grope, throw myself or otherwise encroach on someone else's personal space like that.
I'd think to, but never translate it from thought to deed. Though I do take a certain perverse pride in being the reason David Boreanaz started referring to Christian Kane as "my bitch" in front of thousands of fans, so I'm not all about respecting the talent...
SO much more entertaining than if CK had just held up the sign for a photo as originally planned.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I know part of the problem with fans is that they think the actor is the same as the character and, having watched the character and been privy to their thoughts, actions, etc., feel they have a relationship. Still wrong in all possible ways. I remember during the height of Dynasty's popularity, John Forsythe was in a store and a woman came up and started hitting him with her purse for being mean to poor Crystal. sigh.
And I'm enjoying our lolCass

Because books.
I have to work Thursday night again, because apparently my boss hates me (not really), and every night I've closed I haven't gotten home until after ten. Closer to 10:30 last time. So ... I could watch at 8 p.m. board time, but I know that's rough for other East Coast folks who don't like to stay up as late.
It's just me, but I really, really liked Sundays because I never have to work past 7 p.m. EST. And I really miss the W&P fun.

This is actually a sign of a serious psychological problem, and I hope it's not the case for most of the scary fans, because that would mean that there are way more actively psychotic people who watch television than I'd like to think there are.
Yes, hello, was an impressionable adolescent when that guy killed Rebecca Schaefer.
(And anyway, one of the things JDM gets interviewed about is the people who run into him in the grocery store and burst into tears about the fact that Denny Duquette died. One presumes, since they saw the "dead body" on their TV screens being really really dead, they know Denny Duquette is not alive, and the person in the grocery store is actually someone else. And yet? Weepiness on aisle three.)

Weepiness, while dumb, is harmless. Tackling and unwanted fondling, NSM.
People who watch soap operas seem to be especially prone to the actor=character problem. Especially if they're socially isolated.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can see crying over a character death, since that's what Shonda was trying to get. I can see being prompted into that by bumping into the actor. I think it's oversharing, and I can't imagine it, but I did end up getting a bit emotional over Wesley's death when I spoke to Alexis Denisof.
No hands in new places, though.
