In the Jack storyline (because, as you remember, Jack is actually Billy, Steve's younger brother), Steve has just shown up and he doesn't have an eyepatch! My world has been turned upside-down.
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.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

What is even happening?
Speaking of soap operas...I have found a website that has all the clips of the classic Jack/Jennifer years on DOOL.
(DON'T JUDGE ME.)
I'm judging you stingy, right about now. Ahmm.
Mostly because I've decided that Jack is Patient Zero of my affection for anti-hero types with secret hidden angsty pasts.
I never analyzed it before, but whoa, reading that was a revelation, because yeah. And? For me it was only once Ashford took over the role.

Oh, of course.
But seriously, he's like the prototype Spike, in the "Yes I did bad things but maybe I feel bad about them and maybe deep down I can be a better person if someone just believes in me" sense.
I'm judging you stingy, right about now.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
And helped show ABC that the show was not exactly sustainable in an open-ended format.
Good! That episode was so incredibly, incredibly poor I did think 'surely this is a template to show how Lost doesn't work'.

A One that isn't cold, is scarcely A One at all.
I know we've talked New Media here before, even when it was just a concept. I always had a personal interest which I eventually carried on to a relationship with StrikeTV. I was wondering if any of you have checked out http://www.rprimelab.com/ which is the online ARG (alternate reality game) for Dollhouse. It's about Hazel Rose who is trying to find out more about her biological mother when she gets trapped in a container and is apparently being shipped somewhere via boat. Just so happens in the container she has internet access and the equipment to self imprint. Users are supposed to upload videos to interact with her.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
As Firefly fans are spread hither and yon on the thread, thought I'd post this here:
NASA wants your opinion in naming the International Space Station’s Node 3 – a connecting module and its cupola – before the two segments travel to space and are installed on the orbiting laboratory. The name should reflect the spirit of exploration and cooperation embodied by the space station, and follow in the tradition set by Node 1- Unity- and Node 2- Harmony.
The choices are:
Earthrise
Legacy
Venture
SERENITY

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That vote has been totally slashdotted...not that I didn't do my part.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Slashdotted, sure, but look at the alternatives. I mean, venture? Really? Ventures aren't even necessarily particularly good or successful, they're just...ventures.
