Another Very Important Post
Oct. 7th, 2006 01:43 amNathan Fillion is going to be guest-starring on Lost, , sez E!, via Whedonesque, so I am resigning myself to having to watch Season 2.
I'm chuffed for him, but. Lost.
Is there a word for the point when a series runs out of storylines that can be reasonably extrapolated from the original premise, and thus has to start bringing in wonk?
It's not "jumping the shark," exactly. And there aren't a lot of situations where it applies. Party of Five is the other, I think.
Oh wait.
Maybe Matthew Fox is the connecting factor!
That's dreadful. He doesn't deserve that.

Also, I continue to read SGA fic, despite skating over the eps with as cursory a gaze as I can manage, because of the (totally odd) Canada factor.
I mean, where else in fandom are there mentions of Oshawa? or George Henry highschoool?
OSHAWA. THE 'SHWA IN FANDOM. SO AWESOME I'M CAPS-LOCKING.
*going to drink more wine and sulk about having to work tomorrow*
