It could be "July X*, or 4 weeks, whichever is longer." That way, if we don't get a finale 'til June 28, because some trenchcoat mafia takes out their local Pylean demon Karaoke bar, the more virginal posters can still be around for the weeks of the finale post-mortem.

*Doesn't anyone else like July 4? <sniff>

Cindy, what would you do if we had a finale in February or March? It's rare, but I know that can happen if a show premieres early or has a short season.

I sent Jim an email at around 11AM board time. Haven't heard back yet.

Hmmm. Good point. I was just thinking if it ended in May, virginal people should get the end of May and the whole month of June in NAFDA. How about something like: "When the season finale airs in the month of May, summer rules* will go into effect on July ?. When the season finale does not air in May, summer rules will go into effect 4(?) weeks after the season finale airs."

Works for me. Anyone else?

I was thinking 4 weeks after the advertiser thingie or 4 weeks after the season finale, whichever comes later.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm partial to "Tim Minear: Pray to your big, filthy monkey god" myself, but I think it's a minority view so far.

I don't know if anyone has suggested "fluffy bunny" the script that Joss signed.
