Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I've liked the show much better since she started. I was kind of iffy on it the first few episodes I watched.

Hil is me. At first, I was eh but now LOVE! The "does it say anything about orthotics?" line was just awesome!

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

I did an interview with Anisha Nagarajan of Outsourced. She had a lot of interesting things to say!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

"A Sitar is Born" is one of the episodes I missed while I was busy being offended. Sad now.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Anyone else watch Happy Endings on ABC? I was pleasantly surprised. (Perfect Couples and Romantically Challenged have trained me to cringe when I hear about a friends/couples sitcom this year.)

I didn't even give it a shot, although some of the previews looked amusing.

I caught the Paul Reiser show. The ads and the opening monologue played shamelessly on my nostagia for Mad About You and I fell victim. It was pretty funny. I will try to check it out again. It's got a good lead in with Community.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Did anyone think last night's Community had a pat moral message? I think Troy and Red Dragon being rewarded for their lying really erases any after-school specialness of the whole thing--it was mocking the vapidity of the acting process and of Pierce in general.
