The Saints.

Who is this 'Scarlett Johansson?' Maybe they just want to see if people respond to this promising upstart.

On the one hand, I'm disappointed by three of the most interesting characters being killed off in season 1 (Wesley, BEN, Leland), and on the other, excited that canon doesn't carry a whole lot of weight. Not that I expect Foggy or Claire to bite it anytime ever. As a fan of Rosario Dawson, I hope she's renegotiated an…

Critters! 1 and 2.

Upvoted for 'ball-ticklingly great.'

Oh he's available.

Let's go outside and settle this like emotionally stunted men.

What are you calling me?

Damn. Seems the most appropriate verb form of 'twitter.'

I prefer 'twit.' One sends a twit, one twits, twitted, is twitting, will twit. I would keep your last two though.

I'm upvoting your avatar. I don't care about the guy's taste in music. I do, however, love Palace.

I think of all the current correspondents he'd make the best 'straight man.' Obviously he's going to have his own style, but using the correspondents for ridiculous/extreme foils to play against is such a solid formula, and I can see him slotting easily into the Stewart role of frustrated pragmatist. Having just…

Stewart, as fantastic as he became, was terribly uncomfortable for his first month or two. I remember watching, rooting for him, and queasily thinking he might not make it.

So jealous.

Nice! Haven't heard them (them, right? Please tell me that's not a one-name-person-act thing), will check it out. I caught Dean (with Britta) on the 'plays Galaxie 500' tour, and it was, as usual, an excellent show. Really like Dean & Britta and his solo stuff too, hope I get to see some of that live. Still waiting…

Saw them play a small club gig in Urbana just before Siamese Dream was released, and Billy seemed to get really angry starting a few songs into the set, apparently upset that James and Darcy were flubbing notes on the new material. Introducing the last song, he said, "This is the last Smashing Pumpkins show you'll…

I can think of two times that I was super-impressed with (and became an obsessive fan of) the opening acts, even though I went to see the headliners, and happily all played great sets- Luna opening for the Cocteau Twins (for their respective Bewitched and Four Calendar Cafe albums), and the Pixies opening for Love &…

Chaka Khan?

Yeah, in 'Please Kill Me,' she recounts Bruce writing 'Because the Night' specifically for her, and she liked it, but felt it needed different lyrics.

Nice preemptive strike. Sounds awful, right? And as Sam said, why are they basing this on something if they aren't going to base it on something?
