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!

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

the actress playing the reporter in Nikita is so familiar, but i can't figure out where i know her. Torchwood, maybe? Kristen, can you tell me what her name is? imdb was no help.

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

Rekha Sharma. She was in Battlestar Galactica (Tory) and Supernatural (Kali).

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Just saw on Democracy Now - one of the signs at Occupy Wall Street yesterday: "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal."

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

I just watched the pilot of American Horror Story. Damn, that's some creepy shit. But weird and well done and a hell of a cast.

Is FX likely to put more episodes online? I don't get FX and it doesn't look like anything more than the pilot will be on Hulu.

Just had a conversation about this tonight with a friend. Apparently, they put the pilot online, but aren't going to put up the rest of them.
