No you didn't.

At this point - I think that there may be a program or two in the scifi/fantasy genre that will take off and be big enough to get it's own thread.

Yep, that's my hope. Specifically, I hope that Pushing Daisies ends up being a great show and in need of its own thread since I fully intend to watch it and would love to chat about it with the rest of you.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

NPR's tv critic was raving about it, or at least the pilot, yesterday. Also, it was in Glamour's "Things You'll Love" page. I'm hearing good things.

Kristin, I think there was some talk of Pushing Daisies winding up in Minearverse. Would that work for you?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I think there was some talk of Pushing Daisies winding up in Minearverse.

See, I don't understand that at all. Thread not called Fullerverse. If Pushing Daisies goes there, why not Heroes?

...crap, I have a meeting.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I was going to say the same thing. It's not a Minear show.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

See, I don't understand that at all.

I get it in the sense that it looks a lot like Wonderfalls. As did Dead Like Me.

Maybe we should've had a Fullerverse thread. I like his stuff.

Art Crawl!!!

I thought it was the Lee Pace/Wonderfalls connection to Minear rather than just that it looks Wonderfallian.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

If Pushing Daisies goes there, why not Heroes?

Because Fuller only wrote for Heroes. He didn't create it and cast an actor from Wonderfalls as the lead. I'm not saying it's a perfect fit, but it seems a natural enough fit to me, with the Wonderfalls connection.

Yeah, having seen the pilot, it seems that most of what I liked about Wonderfalls had more to do with Fuller than Minear. I'd just as soon see it in Boxed Set.
