"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

snerks at David's late-to-the-party Crowepiphany

Is that standard knowledge? It was just trying to figure out why it was bugging me so much until I realized it.

It's a remora, dimwit.

And the "before their time" issue is still bothering me. If the guy is a firefighter, he chose a job that could result in him dying young. If they'd made it about the little girl who didn't choose to be related to a pyromaniac, it would have been more palatable. But Dushku probably has something in her contract now about no love scenes with females of any age.

And will there be no follow-up on Rebecca Morgan? This pregnancy probably isn't going to help her dancing career, and her waittressing job might make it very difficult to support a baby. And the father of the baby can't stand her. There's a happy ending.

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

Deb called him the love child of Nathan Fillion and Russell Crowe, and that's perfect. The press has been asking him about the Crowe thing for a while. What in god's name is he to say?

Madrigal -- I think "before their time" is shorthand for unnatural causes.

"Bud, I have special need of your talents."

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Since pre-show-debut, a-yup. The media licked him up like a smart little blond Crowelet.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, yes, thanks for reminding me, Hec. Anna is awesome. Love her hair, her little 80's retro outfits (okay, they're a little scary sometimes), and as the one who wants Seth but can't have him, don't we all identify? (we=people who want Seth, of course)

I'm just hoping for a "Some Kind of Wonderful" plot turn, that's all.

I don't get the Crowe/Mackenzie thing, I really don't. Crowe has the glower, but not much of the "I'm only glowering b/c I'm a puppy afraid of being hurt again" thing. Remind me, was Crowe a hurt puppy in LA Confidential?

Oh yeah, he was wounded unto his soul. He was a man in pain, hence the hitting.

In an irretreivably previously damaged way, yes.

I'm just hoping for a "Some Kind of Wonderful" plot turn, that's all.

See, I like Summer now, so like K*t!ganker, I'm not sure what I want.

I think Benjamin looks like Russell did with a lower fat %age, and they kinda hulk, although McK is wee. Not so much with the acting.

Unlike many, I think Ben does pretty well with the acting. Has some "wow, first TV" hiccoughs, but I'm totally adoring the character. His main problem is Adam Brody, who's just continually on fire. AB's the lynchpin of the show, what elevates it above what it probably was on paper.

Not to mention, preventing a suicidal moment is NOT the end of the work. It is the beginning, and often part of a cycle. Do you know how much info there is on talking down a suicidal person, and how little there is about how to help them long term?

BTresearchedT, still trying to figure it out.

WRT the firefighter, at the end Tru realized that (for Nick, anyway) it WAS about the little girl and not him. He didn't ask her to help him again, so either TPTmakecorpsestalkymeat or he realized it was "his" time to go.
