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

It could just be publicity for SDCC.

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.

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!

Wait, Spaced is available on Hulu? I've been wanting to watch that....
