Whedonesque fails for not informing me that Adam Baldwin was on Bones last night. Of course, it's probably a good thing I didn't know to watch it. Given the number of people on my flist that love the show, I don't want to risk finding another show I might want to watch on a regular basis. :D


Umm... Happy 35th Birthday to Alan Tudyk!


Luke Skywalker, the early years? Dude, all Luke did in his early years was whine about not being allowed to go to the Academy, whine about not being able to visit the Tosche Station Radio Shack, shoot vermin from his hovercar, get bad haircuts, farm moisture, drink blue milk, and get his butt kicked by Sand People. Such does not good drama make, much less Star Wars drama. Luke doesn't even know what a lightsaber is until ANH! You can't make him "cool", because he has to grow up into the farmboy we meet in Episode 4. He's still got to be at Major Arcana Square One.

I can't agree more with the author's final comment: "It may well be that the world is hungry for more space opera. In which case, we can't help but think that resurrecting Firefly might be a better option."


One Got Fat, a highly disturbing and rather hilarious bike safety video from the 60s.
