But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death

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

Huh, looks like Ausiello thinks The Chicago Code is a safe bet for renewal! Of course, looks like Ryan and Minear hedged their bets; I wonder whether they'll actually bring down Gibbons in the finale.

I enjoy The Chicago Code, but it doesn't seem like a show I would need to own and rewatch. It's good and solid and, I imagine, much more interesting than all the other cop shows on TV (that I don't watch), but I don't necessarily feel like it's amazing television.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

but I don't necessarily feel like it's amazing television.

Given that what we often consider amazing television gets canceled? This might not be a bad thing.

Ha ha ha. True enough.

(Here's to being good, but not TOO good?)

This. Very much this. As I said, I'd trade multiple seasons of TCC for another season of Terriers.

So we can still be a focus group. It's just if we find it meh, then it will be a hit. If we love it, then all involved can start crying.

Soap question:

Why is Patch on Young and the Restless kissing, um, I forget her name, but it's possibly Ashley Abbott? I thought Patch was back on Days.

Stephen Nichols (I had to go to wikipedia, it was bothering me) According to wikipedia, he's been off of Days since February of '09 and is now playing Tucker McCall on Y&R.
