Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...
lol...
It occured to me the other day that Tru Calling was basically a cross between Quantum Leap (going back in time to prevent the deaths of individuals and having to figure out what went wrong) and Crossing Jordan (young woman whose mother's murder haunts her works in a morgue w/ an ensemble cast made out of colleagues and family; even the titles of both shows are puns on the heroine's unusual first name).
How about Crossing Leap or Quantum Jordan as a title?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Right. I understand the reality show thing. Fiction not so much.
Speaking of Quantum Leap, it's kind of sad. I loved that show when it was on, but when I saw the DVDs in Best Buy the other day the thought of rewatching all the episodes just didn't appeal to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They did a run on QL on the Sci Fi channel, and I really really liked it. Much more than my memories had led me to expect. But aside from cheesy 80 prime time soaps (and sometimes even then) much old TV lives up to my memory.

Door prizes for everyone! The Swan was the one I thought would have the greatest chance of directly prompting a suicide, but I've been somewhat surprised by how well the contestants I've seen interviewed have taken it. There seems to be a prevailing attitude of "get the free plastic surgery I've always wanted and who cares about the competition afterwards," which is at least healthier than people doing it for the fame and ego strokes of winning.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I saw Spiderman (nearly typed Spikerman) 2 last night. Reminded me a lot of S6 Buffy. I was thinking that, as bad as things got money-wise and career-wise, Buffy never fell back on Faith's slayer motto "Want, Take, Have." It would have been fairly easy, particularly after being turned down by the bank guy after saving his ass.

What is even happening?
I was thinking that, as bad as things got money-wise and career-wise, Buffy never fell back on Faith's slayer motto "Want, Take, Have."We're not counting Spike, then?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I do count Spike, but even that wasn't nearly as bad as it could have been (with the exception of "Gone").

I bought S1 last fall, but haven't watched past the pilot. i suspect i'd enjoy it, but watching feels like work.
