    BTW, he also directed the pilot.

    I stand corrected. He does seem to be more involved-at least, according to this reviewer-than I had assumed.

    If there was ever a doubt about how involved Kevin Smith is in this series, tonight's episode should put those doubts to rest. Watching Sam, Sock and Ben discuss Sam's love trials made me feel like I was watching Jay & Silent Bob Chase Amy at the Mall. I really appreciate how the show has taken its time revealing the relationship between Sam and Andi. It's great when the character who is in an unreal situation still has to deal with very real problems. I know that no show can ever replace Buffy, but Reaper comes awfully close for me.

    The Shield is awesome.

    It makes me want to watch some films starring Forrest Whitteker.

    That goes without saying.

    We've been realling getting into the VH1 's "Greatist Soungs of the '90's" this week at work. It blew my shit when a 19 year (black :p) co worker said that she loved not only loved "Freak On A Leash" but that she was a big time Korn fan. I was all like "Damn, and I thought you were cool before."

    And ftr, I know there's a lot of Korn haters out there and I don't give a rat's ass. Complaint Department >>>>10019 miles that way.

    I don't have a problem with KOrn.

    It's preferable to the Limp Bizkit songs, if you could even characterize them as such, which K-Rock used to play in a seemingly endless loop.

    I've always liked Chloe Sevigny, but that probably has more to do with her willingness to get down and do the nasty in front of a well-paid Hollywood film crew. That's what I call "artistic integrity."

    Seriously though, is this show really good? One of its chief writers is that fruitcake Lawrence O'Donnell, correct? Wasn't he on the staff of that Sominex-like program known as The West Wing?

    I'm anxious for the return of Lost and Jericho. I also love the 4400.

    I need to go wath the last few episodes from last season to get caught up. Is it going to be delayed due to the writer's strike?

    This is the latest from Lostpedia:

    Writers strike stalling Hawaii Lost show
    By Wayne Harada, Honolulu Advertiser
    ABC's "Lost" is being forced to halt filming on its fourth season because of the Writers Guild of America strike.

    The series will run out of completed scripts as a result of the writers' strike, an ABC publicist said.

    Filming on O'ahu had been ongoing. The filming will halt on completion of the eighth episode, out of 16 planned for the fourth season. The episode is expected to wind up no later than Nov. 30.

    The network still expects to kick off the new season in February, as planned, and to run the series without interruption, ABC said. However, circumstances could change, depending on the outcome of the writers' walkout

    Even when I catch evanescent glimpses of that show while channel-surfing I feel a torturous pain that I can only analogize to what political prisoners in Evin Prison in Iran, or internal exiles in a Siberian gulag, must experience.

    To even call it "TV" is to insult the talent necessary in making, I don't know, Big Shots, or some equally execrable show that rises above the tolerance threshold below which you go into a state of toxic shock.

    Seriously, WTH?

    Am I the only person who watches Reaper?

    Whenever I tell somebody about the show, they have never heard of it. Once I tell them it's on the CW, they look at me like they only know CW as 2 letters very far away from each other in the alphabet.

    It's a really funny, smart show. You guys should give it a shot.

    No, me and Heather chatted about it a few pages back-you can check out the tenor of the conversation if you like. Also, someone on the RLC mentioned it in their shoutbox last night.

    You should just tell them it's on the network that succeeded the WB. That will ensure that they never want to watch that program, even in passing.

    I remember we were wondering how much imput Kevin actually had in making the show, and on the episode the other night they had him listed as a consultant. My question is, what exactly does a consultant do? Does that mean they run storylines and ideas by him, or is he more involved somehow?

    There are definitely some Kevin Smith elements-the novel concept underlying the show, for example, or the character of the Devil-but I'm not sure if this is a hands-on project for him.

    I would guess it's not, but I could be mistaken.

    There's probably more discussion about this subject on comics/TV message boards.

    Has anyone heard any word about when the writers' strike will be over? I'm tired of watching reruns of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report from friggin May.

    I heard it may extend past the first of the year. It's going to get really annoying quick when the rest of the shows run out of new episodes.

    I did hear that some of the late night shows are planning on coming back soon. They will make interviews longer and have more music. I'm not sure if this includes Colbert and The Daily Show.

    A few of the shows already have run out. Like The Office.
