Perhaps it's a little on the nose as I'm currently spending the weekend waiting to get called in for a work avalanche, but I just finished watching the first season of The Loop and absolutely love it. It's very weird how much Brett Harrison's character on Reaper has in common with his character in this though, right down to the name Sam.
Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yep. The Loop was pretty funny. The second season was different since they ditched the home characters and shifted all the focus to the workplace, but it was still funny.

Woohoo! (Unless it's just that the 4 OAV movies are getting cut up into episodes for reshowing.)

I wish I could say the surprised me, but sadly it doesn't.
Douchnozzles indeed.

Maybe they can work out some kind of deal where the voice actors get paid more for syndication? Once again, network execs underestimate just how much voice actors add to a cartoon -- at least as much as the writing.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Don't know if this is the thread (it's geektastic references make me want to put this in Boxed Set), but I am watching Spaced on Hulu, and I didn't notice this the first go round, but the editing and transitions are really really cool.
That is all.
I lied, Jay Harrington (Better Off Ted) is guesting on Burn Notice tonight. I think he's playing a bad guy. Should be fun!
