*In all fairness, this was something of a Fireflyesque murder-suicide.

Dragnet ('03 version)**

Why? Why? Oh, why do you fling poo at this monkey rub salt in my wounds by bringing this up?

Because now that I can no longer obsess over whether Joe is completely insane, my life has no meaning. YOUR PAIN IS NOTHING COMPARED TO MY PAIN etc. etc.

I used to loooove American Gothic. It made watching Office Space that much more amusing years later too.

I used to have a tape of Legend episodes. It was the closest to owning a pony I ever got.

I loved American Gothic. Somehow it tends to be overlooked when they mention Sam Raimi's list of accomplishments in Spiderman 2 articles. Boo hiss!

I spent way too much money getting Legend on vcd about a 6 months to a year ago. God, I love the show and will never forgive UPN for completely abandoning it.

Thanks for reminding me of Tenspeed and Brown Shoe and Briscoe County! I was just mentioning the former show the other night, while watching Jeff Goldblum in Independence Day. *sigh* Goldblum is mysteriously hot. Campbell is unmysteriously hilarious.

Well, damn--somebody else has to mourn Shadow Chasers, right? Who do we have to kill to get ALL the episodes released on DVD??

I may have seen only one episode of Q.E.D., and none of A Fine Romance, but I still consider Ahead of His Time and Ticket to Read to be zine masterpieces (along with the Firezone Happy Meal).
