That was the most WTF crossover ever.

You'll always have "Gilmore Girls" and "7th Heaven" reruns on UP. Also, oddly, "Reba" is a big hit in syndication.

"Your magic is stupid. Dumb ass supernatural beings. We don't want them!"

This must happen.

This.

No…..*shifts eyes*

Salem, voiced by Nick Bakay, or no show.

I'm mad at my brother. I told him to watch "Powerless" but he said he couldn't. I was working all night and couldn't watch. He just can't not watch something with Judd Hirsch. Fuck.

I read a lot of science fiction. Bending of problematic morals of what does it matter if it's not human is a theme people like Robert Heinlein and Issac Asimov played with a lot. I was referring to the line in the review about adolescent android romancing, which probably make a interesting yet uncomfortable short…

The last show to do that was "Gilmore Girls". I never got the special appearance by Edward Hermann credit. Not a "And Edward Herrman as Richard Gilmore" but a special appearance by. Though, in a odd sort of way, it kinda fit the classy feel of the show.

True. That was one of the reasons the show worked. It didn't feel like some PSA. It felt like real life.

"Boy Meets World" had a lot of very special episodes, but they also made sure to balance it out with fun ones. TV Tropes points out the episode "Bee True" from season 6, where Cory and Shawn hatch a crazy scheme to get Mr. Feeny to declare his feelings for the dean of the college. Another one I remember is a wacky…

"The Carmichael Show" is kinda a interesting response to the very special episode format. Instead of just yelling something's bad, they have a thoughtful discussion, looking at the issue from all sides. That show basically just created the very special episode format for adults. It's interesting.

The sitcom that turned the very special episode on it's head was mostly "Roseanne". In fact, they did that a lot. "A Stash Of The Past" is the best example of this. After yelling at David that he is not to have a bag of pot, and they have a kid in the house, Dan points out it's Roseanne's bag of pot and they proceed…

Finally, some good news.

So moderate hits get spin offs now?

Research. I like that in a comment.

I kinda don't hate the plot, but the fact it's not based on a YA novel is baffling.

14 year old me: That's awesome.
30 year old me: Jeez. That's just horrible.

He's about to die, but before he does, he's bitten by a vampire. Problem solved.
