@jinchoung: Is it really cheaper? To move an entire production, versus moving a few trucks of sand?...

@Rufus Honker IV: Perhaps some sort of weird but descriptive acronym?

@Azhrarn: No more reality tv.

@prufrocker: In my head, we're in a world where everyone changes their fashions at a moments notice, a la Wall-E, but without the fat people in jumpsuits, and instead with people in these kind of dresses and outfits, perhaps crossed with those in the fifth element..

@OmniHour: Then how do you explain the crud he ended up with?

@Mifune: They did have mytharc, but every episode *in general* could also be viewed as a standalone sci-fi police procedural, kinda.

@214w: Agreed. Much as I love Joss, I think any time you give an artist as much money as they want and say "do what you want" you're possibly asking for trouble.. Having someone to critique/edit you is necessary no matter how good you get..

@Nasdaf: Why? Probably an excuse to have a new triple breasted woman.

@elysdir: Seconded.

@The Wolf Kin: Yeah, that was my thought too...

@Hotscot: Lister: Sometimes, I think it's cruel giving machines a personality. My mate Petersen once bought a pair of shoes with Artificial Intelligence. 'Smart Shoes' they were called. It was a neat idea. No matter how blind drunk you were, they could always get you home. But he got rattled one night in Oslo and…

@artiofab: But has that situation ever happened? Have we ever gotten intelligence from torture that stopped that ticking time bomb?

@thethirdchimpanzee: Apparently the ground is not the cause of the blunt force trauma.

@Arken: There may be pipe organs involved. Possibly choristers.

@Obi-Haiv: Everyone is SOMEONE's kid.. The only reason you think the analogy is ridiculous is because we're biologically wired to care more about our offspring than other people's offspring.. But that biology doesn't make them any less human.. although condoning torture probably makes you less human...

@jayreif: Thank you.

@timin: I don't.. it just saddens me that there are so many people out there that use religion to justify their own misguided beliefs..

Any god that expects unending devotion to hate is no god at all.
