so very, very true. *giggle*
when i heard they were sending nuts, it took me a few minutes to figure out why. i bet some of the execs who never watched the show wondered the same thing...
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Do you mean nuts-nuts or some of the nuttier fans?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Which studio makes Jericho? Is it Warner Bros?
I thought that "closure" meant a tv movie or mini-series.
I was guessing they had something cheaper in mind (like a web comic) but I'm often cynical.
They're sending nuts.
That's hilarious in so many ways. They're also doing postcards with demographic info so it's not all crazy.
I thought the "nuts" bit on the show was just a dumb. They couldn't have pulled something useful out of grandpa's military history?

What is even happening?
Which studio makes Jericho? Is it Warner Bros?
I think it's a CBS Paramount production.

I think they used it because it's an actual story from WWII: 1944, December 29. Gen. Anthony C. McAuliffe recounting the German demand to surrender Bastogne, Belgium, which was held by the 101st Airborne Division against overwhelming odds, and his reply. "Nuts!" [link]

Yeah, I saw what they were trying to do, but since they had to give us that history lesson they telegraphed the ending. And I just don't think Skeet saying "Nuts!" had quite the dramatic impact they were looking for. I would've liked to have seen something strategically useful to their situation.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Yeah, that was just odd all around.

HOUSE: Could be interesting if they actually follow through on it. Any bets on whether they will?
