Shiny
Upon the 10th Anniversary of one of my favorite shows of all time, i began to reflect on how much I hate TV production companies. They don't care at all about how good a TV show is, how original a show is or how much the viewers of said show, regardless of how small the number, emotionally invest in the characters and story. All they give a shit about is the bottom dollar on what they can advertise during the crap shows the millions of drones in the 18-25 demographic are watching. I foresee a future where all well-acted, well-written, scripted shows are abolished and we live in 100% reality TV world...please shoot me before this happens.
Now, i'm not going to go and list all my adored shows that were killed well before their time (::coughcough:: Arrested Development), but there are just so many shows that are not given a fair chance. And i just find that so wrong......and unfair...and just plan shitty. What the hell, TV fat-cats?? You're lucky we live in the wonderful world of TV to DVD now and are able to create all these wonderful cult followings, after it's too late to save the actual show...so we showed you and your twitchy cancellation trigger fingers...blegh If only everything could be given a second chance like Family Guy....
So yeah....this post didn't really have a point....but i guess we've established that a). Firefly and Arrested Development were both awesome, b). Fox sucks ass for cancelling both shows to make way for more American Idol horseshit, and c.) ...i like to use the word "fatcat"

My two Cents on voting
I don't care what your political affiliation is, I don't care what your religious beliefs are, I don't care if your politics are on the complete other end of the spectrum from mine....all I care is that you show up at the polls and vote.
Vote for someone you agree with, vote against the person you don't agree with. If you don't want to vote because you feel uninformed, then get yourself informed! We live in the internet age...the ballot questions for every state are out there in the interwebs just waiting to be read. There is no excuse for not voting...saying you "don't want to" vote is just stupid and makes you sound like an ignorant, uneducated person.
It's 10 minutes out of your day..are you telling me everyone can't spare 10 minutes to voice their opinion for the good of their country? Are you so much better than the rest of us that you're above voting?? We all have opinions and we live in a country that allows us to express those opinions openly--stop taking it for granted. As a woman, I know my right to vote was an even harder fight to achieve and I therefore refuse to take it for granted.
So get out there and vote, bitches! No excuse not to....
