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!

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

what does it mean for the future of the show when the showrunner is replaced?

It means the show will die a fiery death.

Which is to say, I don't think it means anything in particular other than someone else has their hands on the reins, for good or for bad.

I know Polter-Cow (I think) had expressed concerns when it was announced the current showrunner was leaving.

That was me! I mentioned it a few weeks back in Premium.

I've been a bit timid to think of myself as a Dexter fan for fear of what that says about me.

For what it's worth, I was much bloodthirstier as an Angel fan than as a Dexter fan.

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

That was me! I mentioned it a few weeks back in Premium.

Aha. Well, we do look alike.

And it turns out I didn't even find the right showrunner before. It looks like he was "co-showrunner," though, according to HR. Not the creator. So that's good.

The creator, or really developer of the show, left after Season 1, I think.

Oh. Well then. I know nothing.

Ack, my apologies Kristen. I have no idea why I thought it was P-C, except maybe that he's posted about the show.

I have posted about it, and I think I've talked about it in here, which is what confused you.

It's okay. I have one of those faces. (hee)

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I did a (lame) write-up of the Buffy paley-fest thing. Since I never venture out of this and the Firefly threads, where should I post it (link it)?
