You know, I know his wife.

Namedropper.

I think it's their passion. Hank and Britt care; about each other, about their (ex-)partners, about their families. Whatever they do, they are all in, even if they cloak it beneath a veneer of California cool.

I remember reading somewhere that improv comedy is all about saying "yes" to whatever your partner suggests. I think, somehow (first cup of coffee, yo) that it's a level of commitment to their lives. Whatever happens is important, not melodrama important, but important.

There was also this really natural flow to the plots, and we got pulled in right along with the characters. As they got sucked deeper into the morass of corruption of Ocean Beach, so did we.

Blah blah blah ramblecakes.

Those aren't questions, I know, but maybe there's a seed of something there that could inspire one.

Nice! I got a shout out on Twitter from Alan Sepinwall and Time's tv/pop culture critic James Poniewozik.

Hooray!

Woo hoo!

Shawn, Tim, and MRJ agreed to answer Q&As. So that will give another pump to the site, I think, so I'll be able to do another Twitter #terriersondvd sort of thing.

I hate not knowing what the bottom line is for FHE. If I knew, I'd at least be able to gage my expectations better.

HEY STREGA. THINK OF A BETTER QUESTION.

I should do homework; it's been a while since I last watched. You could ask if any characters surprised them -- went in a direction they didn't anticipate when they began, either because of something they saw in the actor, or something that came up while breaking an episode.

Is it worth contacting Shout Factory? If Fox won't produce DVDs themselves, could Shout get the rights? Shout certainly has experience doing cult-audience shows and still making a profit. And they're smaller so it seems like you might get a personal response if you contacted them.

It's worth contacting my mom. I don't wanna be embarrassed and FAIL ANOTHER CAMPAIGN.

That's a good question, BTW. Amy @ Popgurls helped me rephrase the other lame one into:

No matter what sort of horrible decisions Britt and Hank make, they're always our heroes, and we're always rooting for them to be okay. How did you be sure to maintain that?

Also, I didn't see you retweet me strega. I think you're embarrassed to be my friend or something. The hover text over the TWOP link on my page reads, "They made Aaron Sorkin cry, once."

Because I'm so proud of you.

I have a "pay it forward"-type idea - you said that dl-ing the pilot on iTunes was a good thing? I would be willing to offer to gift the pilot to, say, the first 3 people who post on my fb wall. The deal being if they like it, they do the same? Could be used with Twitter, too. I'll probably do it whether or not it becomes a thing. They would all count as separate downloads, right?
