Buffistas

Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Closed Film and TV threads

This thread is part of an experiment to determine Buffistas' interest in television discussion. It will close on June 1st, 2007, after which there will be a brief skirmish to sort out what we want to do next. This thread is for discussion of all comedy, regardless of airing station. [NAFDA]

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Of course, they told me before the scene aired, but still.

Yeah, that was not great timing.

Regarding HIMYM, I've heard unfortunate rumors that it might not get picked up for another season -- its numbers aren't terrible, but apparently one of the new higher-ups at CBS just doesn't like the show and wants it off the air. I guess we'll know tomorrow after CBS upfronts.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Art Crawl!!!

I've heard the HIMYM is on the bubble too. CBS upfronts are tomorrow. Perhaps we'll hear leaked information before then.

Heh -- somehow, I don't think a lack of suits is the problem. We should send blue French horns!

Ankh-Morpork Watchman, Dreamer, Scooby, Minister of Grace, Still Flyin' in a Zoo2 World

The leaked info I've heard so far have HIMYM returning to the 8pm timeslot. Really, it seems all the rumors about HIMYM being on the bubble originated with one columnist and just spread like crazy from there. Nobody else, as far as I can tell, has talked about the "bubble"ness independently.

We'll find out tomorrow for sure.

Speaking of blue French horns, one awesome continuity bit that was pointed out: in Showdown, the blue French horn is indeed gone from Robin's apartment.
