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

OC spinoff? I know Josh Schwartz is doing a new show, and so is McG, but I hadn't heard that either of them were related.

Well, looking back at DeKnight's Angel eps, I have a little hope that it'll be a more dark Lex-centric show.

Now I have that hope, too. Let our little hope be realized!

Jane on the The OC's spinoff (which I know nothing else about except that it will exist).

I have not heard of a OC spinoff. Must google.

Futon critic has this from Fox's news release on the new fall shows:

ATHENS -- Josh Schwartz, the creator of THE O.C., brings us a new drama set in the New England community of Athens, where the rich outsiders and the local townies create a volatile environment where everything is possible in Athens, premiering on FOX.

And, either way, I would love Jane to be involved. I dunno if she has signed up for another year on GG or not. And I would def. rather see Goddard on a Schwartz show than on Alias. Hmmph. I love the Seth just as he is - but just imagine Ultimate Drew writing for the Seth and the Sandy. Why am I doing this to myself? Because also never gonna happen.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Jeff Bell is the one going to Alias, I believe.

I saw the last ten minutes of Smallville last night. Was very confused, but I liked the Mozart.

Jeff Bell is the one going to Alias, I believe.

According to a Fury post at the Beta both Bell and Goddard will write for Alias next season. Again, I say hmmph to the total wasting of Goddard's humor on Alias.

What music was it that Lex said his dad should have been playing? It would have been funny if that had been the score for the end of the episode (which I found incredibly long and overwrought).

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Nope. I'm wrong. Turns out it's not a spinoff, though I had read somewhere earlier this week or last that it was.

However, it will be on Mondays at 9:00 after 24. At least starting in January, according to Zap2it.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

How could she not be?

She gets hit by a flying piece of kryptonite and is.... duh, Duh, DUH! ...transformed.

I only saw the last 3 minutes of Smallville and was making up my story as I went along.

I kept thinking, PLEASE KILL CHLOE, and Lana if you can figure it out too.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I rather thought it must've been the same piece.

Googling seems to show that the goddard/bell/alias rumour is pretty widespread. I think that would be the second show I would want to see Goddard write for (other than his own, but that'll happen soon enough), so, not a tragedy.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Lex suggested Barber's Requiem. And I agree with you. (There was something off about the end, yeah, but I was biting my lip cause of the house-go-boom.)

I kept thinking, PLEASE KILL CHLOE, and Lana if you can figure it out too.

You don't like Chloe? I think you're mean and you suck.
