Before I read Page 2 of this thread....
You guys liiiiiked the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie???!?!?
Mediocre at best, it prevented me from watching the first season of Buffy until I taped it for a friend toward the end of the season. And even then I didn't want to like it. It was okay - but.. bleh! I can't believe I hang out with you guys! ;)
Buffy did go on to become one of my all-time favorite shows.
I'm pretty much on the LSPE bandwagon, and it makes sense since we have a similar sense of television and movie tastes.
I don't know if anyone else has been watching it, but I've become a pretty big fan of Chuck on NBC. I pretty much can't miss an episode any more. Deadwood was one of my faves, as well as a number of other shows I'm feeling too lazy to list out.
Regarding the OP, I tend to be anti-union, though as Alex said, it's how things are run down here. I'd like to see them get a few drops off the new media teet. I don't know if anyone else here has gone online to watch episodes that have been missed, but it's good stuff and it's got advertising that can't be zipped and zapped through. They making major moolah off it. Same goes for all the shows available for purchase online, etc - there's gotta be something they can do for the writers. Sure, it's easy to say you "don't know what will happen with the future" with these new formats, but it seems as though if it fails, they have nothing to lose by throwing it into the contract, and if it's wildly successful everyone will be pretty happy. Heck, they'd have been better off keeping them happy and keeping the pundits out of it, because they would probably end up better off in the end (the producers, distributors) and they'd save a lot of face on it.
OK, back to reading the rest of the thread.... And you guys liked the original Buffy movie? I gotta sit on that one for a while..
