Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Apparently Jewel & I got hitched. I'd have known about this earlier had I been watching Stargate Atlantis. (her character name shares a last name with me). Ya think that line would work if I somehow ran into her? A fella can dream, I suppose, right?

That is adorable. You really MUST use that line when you meet her at a con. I can just see her posing for wedding photos.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I made fun of the fox but I want the tea.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Wow. That's. Wow.
I know this guy thinks he struck a blow for all that is good and right in the 'verse, but the truth is he probably came across as a craxy tunnel-visioned fanboy with issues and the Fox guy is thinking "We should never make another show like that again, these guys are wack-jobs."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I have to agree with MM. Fans should try to remember that revenge won't get them what they want next time. Of course reasonable discourse probably won't turn the tide against the bottom line, either, but a politely--and logically--registered opinion leaves a better impression than a Reaverishly-behaved fan does. A reminder that fans can--and have done--arrange boycotts of sponsors' products is a subtle nudge that fan opinion could affect that bottom line, and about the only fan action that could.
The largest impediment to effective fan action is forgetting that teevee isn't about entertainment. It's about selling product. A tv show is only there to hold the audience's interest in between attempts to sell them things. A network is going to go with a show that will appeal to the most spendy demographic, and little else is going to change that.
