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!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I could have bought the three episodes of Drive I hadn't seen from Amazon for $6, but I splurged and bought the whole series for $9.

I know what I'm doing this weekend....

What is even happening?

I'll give Dollhouse a shot. Obviously, as I watch Supernatural weekly, I have a fairly high tolerance for skeevy gender issues.

And then there's that. They've been getting worse, not better, and yet I watch. And watch. And watch.

I really want some Whedon on my TV, so I don't know how many episodes I'll give Dollhouse. A lot, I think, because Eliza's so watchable (although now that I think about it, she wasn't particularly watchable for me in True Calling).

meeeeeeeeeeemories...

Sing it, sister tiggy!

But it's the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember
Flying butt monkeys

I'm with Cindy!
I only travel in the finest circles. Look at the hotness that is you!
(Also, HI!!! and [link]
Again I make grabby hands. Would their mom like to board them in Boston for a semester? It will broaden their horizons. It's ridiculous that they don't stop getting cuter.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Re: casting race issues... let's just say that I'm on guard. Original Cindy from DA could have been a really terrible and stereotypical character, but the actress made her awesome. Some people on lj expressed concerns after seeing the sides. I'd link you but I honestly can't remember who it was.

She has a recurring role on Reaper as Sock's on again/off again girlfriend.

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

So that Hollywood Reporter article we were discussing two days ago. I mentioned I thought this was odd:

Over at Fox, J.J. Abrams "Fringe" looks like a lock after an enthusiastic response from the network's brass during the weekend. Fox already has given its blessing for staffing to begin on the Warner Bros. TV-produced sci-fi drama.

From today's THR:

Drama "Fringe," which already is staffed, continues to be the surest bet at Fox, along with Joss Whedon's "Dollhouse."

Final analysis: THR. On crack since 1930.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

What medication do you give people with multiple personality disorder? That is what THR needs.

I even looked to see if maybe they were written by different people or something. But no, same byline.

Now that is just ridiculous.

And I will eat my hat if Dollhouse is announced as a mid-season show next week.

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

Man, they got that show staffed FAST.
