@Bruce

I haven’t seen her speak, but I’ve seen pictures where she’s smiling and she has a pretty sincere and sweet looking smile. Hope it isn’t deceiving, but she seems like a nice girl from that.

Okay, that’d be cool. I want to see more of Summer Glau, and see how versitile she can be. She’d be perfect on Dollhouse, it just makes me more excited to see the second season now. I’m a bit skeptical since it’s a pretty good show, but it’s so inconsistent.

Michelle: If NBC comes up with something that might get better ratings than SVU, they’re bargaining stance will be weakened and negotiations just might calm down. We can only hope!

Andy S: Good idea, about comparing The CW to Cable… and yet, it seems the to be full of lack luster regardless.

Yep – SPONGEBOB (Hope he’s not a used sponge) and Wrestling are the top shows on Cable.. I shudder.

Ken J: When I saw Summer at WonderCon, she spoke! Like a normal, hot chick! It was nice to see she doesn’t talk in monotone all the time!

@John…

Not dissing the sponge, dude. Spongebob is cool. One of the few cartoons that I actually can sit and watch (and LAUGH) to. Hoping the sponginess is around for quite a while.

More should watch Burn Notice, very cool show!

I will be watching Moore’s new show, but what gets me is what I see in most shows based on the future and it has to do with the casting, majority it is an all caucasian cast, which is not wrong but since it is in the future, shouldn’t there be more of a diversity? Adding one person of color does not count, nor adding a female Asian actress which I see most often when there is “diversity”.

At least Rodenberry had the smarts and the right thought process, and that was way back in 1960! Just saying, it is set in the future after all, shouldn’t it be more of a melting pot culturaly?

If christopher and Mariska leave Law and Order:SVU I won’t watch it anymore. I don’t enjoy the episodes where they are only in for a few minutes they bore me to death. The whole thing about svu is that it’s personal. It’s not all about the job. Olivia and Elliot make Law and Order: SVU, Law and Order:SVU. I tried watching the other normal Law and Orders and I don’t enjoy them.

Joss Whedon needs to just give up these other shows and make Firefly 2. So far he’s tried any angle he can to return to a generalized Firefly premise with similar characters, and similar plots. The next Firefly show, however, should be on ANYTHING other than Fox or ABC. As they seem to dump shows that barely get off the ground.

Andy: Don’t dis the Sponge, man. That show has more to it than you’d think. The CW, on the other hand, needs to start investing more in some original shows. The only reason I ever turn on that network is to watch some quality re-runs. That’s it.

About Summer being on Dollhouse… I know a bunch of TSCC fans who’d love to kick my ass for saying this, but I was secretly hoping the show would get canceled just so Summer would have the opportunity to join Dollhouse’s cast. I know, I know. It’s like wishing someone would die: you just shouldn’t do it because if it happens you’ll feel awful, like it’s your fault. Well now that it’s happened, I guess it’d be foolish to feel guilty and not just excited about the thought of Summer working with Whedon again.

And now an off-topic note about the site’s new layout: I intensely dislike the pagination of your articles. I don’t want to have to download 2x or 3x more ads for just one article. Thanks.

Summer was more chatty in The Unit in the few episodes she was in, lol.

I compared the rating for The CW vs cable only networks and have come to the conclusion that The CW is the worst network on earth. They should really stop being a broadcast network. Their top rated show, Reaper, had almost HALF the viewers of SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS!! That’s right, the sponge in the pineapple under the sea is more popular than ANY show on The CW. The should sell their properties to USA or TNT. I bet USA would give Smallville better treatment than they do.
