Well, back in the serials and 50's, maybe. Has anyone thrown a gun (another silly move) in any of the incarnations since the George Reeves AoS?

They did a joke about that on JLU, though it was Wonder Woman instead of Supes. Guy empties a clip at her, which she blocks, then hauls back to throw his gun and she says "Like that's going to work."

Seems they did a joke on that on the Simpsons too. Treehouse of Horror episode 'Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl', guest starring Lucy Lawless (who's not Xena).

"Xena can't fly!"

"I'm not Xena."

Variety speculating on schedule changes:

WB

Biggest priority should be moving "Smallville" to 9 on Wednesday to get it away from "Lost" and to feed off of viewers looking for good drama after the ABC skein ends.

Returning drama "Summerland" would work nicely as "Smallville's" lead-in;

That's not going to help if they do end up moving Alias to that slot, as rumored. Though I'm betting more people will be watching Lost than Alias.

Summerland is returning? That was the one with Lori Loughlin, right? Huh.

And why the fuck does Variety keep using the word "skein"? It's a show, peoples. IT'S A SHOW. You don't have to be pretentious about it.

Variety is all about the pretentious Variety-speak.

Most of the ep bores me, but Shank's "Oh, god!" when RDA delivers the line about maybe having been captured to impregnate the ladies cracks me up.

And I say Shanks and RDA, just because it seems so visceral -- no idea if it was improv, but the idea charms.

which episode is that, ita?

Oops! The one where they're captured by the she-Jaffa. Birthright?

Ah. I haven't seen it yet. Tivo should have caught it last night. I'm slowly catching the S6 and S7 episodes I never saw.
