Clyde is the one who told Scully that she doesn't die. Then, a couple of seasons later, there's the one with the freaky photographer who can't die but who redirects the death that is coming for Scully after she gets shot. Yet another plot thread that Chris Carter shrugged off.

I want a Celebrity Deathmatch between Joss and CC.

Ah. Yes. Thank you. Both were good episodes. Though I remember CBFR now a lot clearer than MM.

How does Joss not win this one?

Takes place while he's asleep, or possibly in a coma?

Cher really regretted turning down Post-Modern Prometheus.

I thought Cher said they didn't ask...

What are those shows going to do without Joss' casting directors to poach from?

They'll start poaching the writers. I think Jeff Bell is going to Alias.

Yes, that. Don't worry about the casting though, they'll have 264 episodes of Buffy and Angel to cull for names, plus however many episodes of Firefly. And although it's not a Mutant Enemy series, there is the entire cast of Wonderfalls.

Tithonus.

I like Je Souhaite too.

It's amazing how many times the genie story is retold, even charmed did it.

I don't think there's an original story out there that charmed hasn't ruined forever retold.

If they ever crib the 'everybody dies' ending of tragedies like Hamlet I will watch it. I'm picturing a badly dressed corpse tableau right now, and it's pretty fucking great.

How does Joss not win this one?

Well, physically, Carter is a surfer and all.

Plus, even though I was extremely unhappy with the final season of the X-Files, I never started despising the characters and praying for their demise. So that's a point for CC, too.
