I'll have to remember to watch AMC online tomorrow. I've never really watched it but I want to see this.
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

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 would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I just watched Tuesday's episode on Hulu. I have to wait another few hours to see today's episode.
But I did hear Kendall say that SMG could play her in the movie. The show has gone crazy. Playing a scene and then cut to the character talking to the audience.
And Babe standing there in the doorway! I'll admit I don't watch this show enough to know the character but I had read enough for this finale week to know how important it was.
And over on the soap that I do watch, DOOL--Ivan walked in today! I think it's just for today and tomorrow, but ...IVAN! Oh you sexy foreign beast.
This is really the week to be watching those two shows. It will be interesting to see if the reset for DOOL starting Monday is any better.

Allyson, I remember that Chris Hardwick (@nerdist) was a huge Terriers fan and had Donal Logue on the Nerdist podcast. I may have to tweet him about TerriersonDVD. Maybe many of us could.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Oh, that would be lovely! Gah. I miss this show. It so should be on my teevee, still. Bad break.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Not everything Landgraf touches becomes a hit. Two recent efforts — dramas "Terriers," about two offbeat private investigators, and "Lights Out," about a heavyweight fighter, were each canceled after just one season. "The conclusion I came to was both those shows were not conceptually original enough," Landgraf said.
I'm trying to parse this in a way that does not make my head explode.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In the land of umpteen CSIs, when has not conceptually original enough been a real issue?

I think the problem is that they were too original, myself...

Maybe he meant that they weren't high-concept enough. Like, you couldn't explain what the show was about in one sentence.

Yup. Original means the marketing staff has to work at it to get the concept across to the public.
