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

Man. I'd feel so cheated if the last few years of Tim's work was influenced by a midnight Arby's run.

Works for me. "Give in to your grown-up tastes, talky meat!"

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

So Allyson, you want the thread to be called Tim the Puddin' Pop o' Love?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

About the voting -- what happens now? The ballot link gets posted in Press? I can't remember.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I know discussion is closed on this, I just want to clarify something - does "announcements" still mean the same thing as the Annual Upfront Presentations even though we're not specifically using that term anymore? Or does that encompass more?

Steph, when Jon B has the ballot ready he'll post a link in Press and Lightbulb. Probably later tonight, I'd guess.

Our wings are not tired.

Jon puts up the form, ita directs the mail. Let the voting begin (and end which will be nice). At least I think that is the way it happens.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

We're finally gonna vote? For real?

Woo hoo!

brenda - I'm not certain. I suggested the language, because Jim needed a definition of the upfronts. But, since what both are announcing is off-season changes (additions to and departures from) the cast of major, regular, title credit characters, does it matter?

I mean, if at the Upfronts, they said Seth Green was joining A:ts as a regular for the upcoming season, and a week later, they said Nick Brendon was joining A:ts as a regular for the upcoming season, would it matter? (That's a sincere question, not a scolding, btw.)

It seems to me, this boils down to whether or not we can approach a new season, acknowledging who makes up the man cast of a given series, right?
