I tease because I love.

Dear Heroes fandom,

Yeah, April 23rd. No kidding. Welcome to hiatus!

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Supernatural fandom,

Why are you listening to Kristin from E!? Is she telling the truth for once? Because if she is someone owes me five bucks. Tell me, are her lips moving? If her lips are moving that's usually a sign she's full of shit. Also, the consciousness and the standing upright.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear writer's block,

*whacks with a mallet*

Sincerely,

Me

Because I just want to talk SPN with someone...

What the hell Kristin said this time? She's the queen of foiler and of the spoiler everybody already knows.
If it's what I'm thinking it is, it's a bunch of crap.

That its chances of getting renewed for a third season aren't good. Which ... hell, I wouldn't believe her even if she'd said the exact opposite. She kisses so much network ass that most of the shit she says is fake.

Exactly! She's fool of shit, and the only time she gives real spoilers is when all other places already announced them.
She lives to make noise and attrack attention.

There. That's two for you, zero for writer's block. ;)

Dude, if SPN's chances weren't "OMG NOT GOOD", Kristen wouldn't have anything to flap her lips about. She's the media, y'all, not your best buddy.

No one says she has to be anybody's best friend but if she's going to be in the media -- especially someone who's supposed to give you spoilers -- "honest" might be something she might want to look into. When half of the stuff she gives out is foilers and the other half is stuff people have already given out, that's not good.

I'm not saying she may not be right, but the information she gives out is notoriously neither reliable or up-to-date. Yes, she's media but she's terrible at it. Personally I actually kind of like her -- professionally I wouldn't listen to a word she says even if she told me the sky were blue.

And I don't think Supernatural's chances are brilliant, per se, but I don't think they're apocalyptic, either. Years of watching every show I like get canceled isn't giving me a ridiculous sense of impending doom with SPN that I usually get right before I lose my babies. :)

I should have changed 'media' to 'entertainment media'--my point was that her type of media is notoriously unreliable. They don't deal in facts as much as just...well, entertainment, and it's easy to shrug and say "whoopsie!" later, when you've been proven wrong.

That being said, yes, she is pretty bad at her job.

[identity profile] apocalypsos.livejournal.com 2007-03-06 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
True, but she's like the Fox News of spoiler dealers. She's not worth the spazzing some people have been going through in response, that's for damn sure.

Hee! Yes, I was agreeing with you on that point. Sorry if I was unclear.

[identity profile] apocalypsos.livejournal.com 2007-03-06 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I know. I didn't realize until after I posted that maybe I should have rephrased that first sentence. ;)

Dear Heroes fandom,

Wait, seriously? You're freaking out about this hiatus? Try an indefinite suspension enacted a week early with no word of when your show is coming back. No sympathy,

The Studio 60 fandom

Sounds like a repeat of Firefly.

What is it with networks shitting on their devoted viewers?

I don't know, but if this level of moronitude is all it takes to be an exec, why am I not deciding what's on TV and making oodles of money right now?

Ah, I should be used to hiatuses...hiati? whatever...i should be used to my shows going on hiatus but im NOT.

also? im way too optimistic about...LIFE in GENERAL to even consider SPN not coming back for a 3rd season.
