Leitch Age has nothing to do with it. Bissinger, and to a great extent Costas, don't undertand blogs and the Internet. It's a new medium and they can't even sort out the differences between posts and comments. Jeez.

The second issue written by Tom Peyer came out this week. Nice, and Freddie William's art pops off the page. Fun stuff!

I don't remember this show fondly at all, Charlie, but will take a look at that final ep on YouTube and see if it's improved with age.

(But I suspect it would not only require a suspension of disbelief but of aesthetics, as well.)

Didn't Eccleston say one reason he was leaving was because he thought the show was "too gay" or something to that effect?

Who know; maybe Barrowman just doesn't like homophobes...

This is horsehit for all the reasons pointed out above. Just wanted to concur.

But as a longtime XM guy, I'm looking forward to listening to Stern again so I can get updates on lesbians and enemas, plus hear him curse. That's great radio!

And no Will Ferrell either, especially after his latest turdfest tanked.

Nah, I'm thinkin' something sparse and naturalistic - arty without being farty - though I can't think of a director offhand. I could do the script, though.

Any takers out there? Someone want to option the rights? Have your people call mine.

Ciao, babe.

Soylent Green has it all, no doubt.

Needs a director (and a script) that plays it pretty deadpan rather than over the top, so Tim Burton, please stay home.

Hate the contacts thing. Much prefer the older one. The new one is counter-intuitive and since I use one of my gmail accounts for a weekly e-mail thing, it's a deal breaker for me.

I'd like to have images in sigs and hot links. Not mandatory but nice.

My days of just dowloading something based on a short write-up are long gone. I'd like a bit more info and their website is devoid of any specifics.
