Bwah, your #3 made me realize that I forgot to put I WANT MOAR AMAZING JACK AND RENEE FANFIC FROM MY F-LIST on the list. Because I absolutely do want that!

I know you're not even a little bit alone in wanting Fringe to get the recognition it deserves. I'll hope that for you, too. And hell yes, for a decent sendoff. Why is the damn dismount always so hard?

Yeah. The theory I've built up since being royally kicked in the (figurative, obviously) nuts by TV is that it's not possible to keep everyone happy. My fav example is XF, which to my way of thinking, actually did a pretty decent job of tying things up (save the second movie, of which I shall not speak;).

But so many people were disappointed in a million different things, and I was just like, DUDE. No show can do absolutely everything. I have high standards, but some people are freakin' ridiculous.

SQUEE!!! Now I'm even more excited. But I can't remember when they're showing the pilot. It's this month, isn't it? And then they make us wait until March for more? Hmm. I will go find out.

I miss Allison Janney so much. Which is a little hilarious since I never even watched TWW.

eta: Okay! 25th. *bounces*

I heartily support #1. Well, all of your list, really. Even though I have yet to jump on the Brandi bandwagon ( ... )

In fairness, I must admit that Brandi had to grow on me like Larry Moss, only possibly more slowly. A was always like, "She's so GOOD" and I was like, "Eh." But then suddenly idk. I started listening more hardcore and then it was like BLAM is what it was like. Because now I love her more than any single performer besides Emmylou. Seeing how fantastic she is in concert only sealed the deal.

My kids listen to . . . very eclectic things because we listen to very eclectic things. They of course enjoy the current terrible pop (to which I mostly ugh, but I do enjoy some of it), pretty much anything 80s that isn't horribly emo, standard stuff like Aerosmith and Def Lepard (sp? Why do I not know that?). Mostly if it has a decent beat, they like it.

Which of course rules out all my faves (Sarah, Brandi, Emmylou, Lucinda, Patty, Alison), which they have conveniently labeled "donkey music." Heh. S wants to play the guitar too. I think his hands are too small.

Why do I not even know what The Ranger's Apprentice is? Yikes. But I'd watch it if ( ... )

We got a half-size guitar for J and he can manage it no problem. S should try it ( ... )

Huh! I'll have to check out this Ranger thing if we ever finish the Septimus Heap books, which is a huge if! We've been reading them forever and I adore them, but damn they are seriously long. And I think there are seven of them. We just started six!
