I was just about to write something but thought *Spoiler* - Get well soon!
and here is my thoughts on the Heidi vs. Jaye thing in spoiler mode -
Select to view spoiler:
It`s a case of 2 sides and whether or not you could believe that Heidi would commit another act of unspeakableness.
As Tyrone is married, the act of the affair with Jaye is an unlawful one, even if they are made for each other.
I wonder also what each person would say to their parents?
Tyrone maybe would appologise and say that his wife cheated on him and has found someone else and will seek a devorse.
Heidi will protest that she had a moment of weekness and is totally faithful to her husband, who insists on having an affair with a person he met in a bar.
I can`t remember if Jaye every approached this subject to her parents, but I think it would go something like - I`ve met this guy who was cheated on by this other woman and he could be right for me.
so that`s just my ideas, right or wrong, it`s the way I look at it, might need to find a new perspective on it though.
Fray, to cheer you up, I reckon you should get up and put the Wonderfalls Music Video on repeat and dance those sickness blues away

Allright, I got Wonderfalls from Netflix, and I watched the first episode. I have a few things to say, some of which you won't like....
For starters, I completely understand why this show wound up getting canceled. The first twenty minutes or so were some of the most boring minutes I had seen in a television program in a long time. The only thing that kept me from declaring the people of this board insane for their devotion to this show and giving up right then and there were A) just that, the devotion of everyone on this board to this show, and B) I went out of my way to get it so I might as well at least watch a whole episode. Had I been watching it on television instead of DVD, and not known of such critical acclaim, I surely would have quit 20 minutes in and never come back. I imagine that many of those who watched the first episode did the same. It is almost inexcusable to start the first episode of a series so mundane and dull, especially when, as I recall, it was up against Survivor and Friends (at least I think that is when it was on). I think the show doomed itself, by loosing potential viewers who might have watched the first episode.
Anyways, I stuck with it. A little over 20 minutes in, it started to click, all of a sudden the charaacters became interesting to me, and the plot started to surface. Probably around the time the main character started chasing the guy on the bike with the quarter, I started enjoying the show. By the end of the episode, I was intriuged, and looking forward to the next episode. It went from increadibly boring to fascinating in a very short period. I understood why the first 20 minutes were setting up the relationships of the characters, but there really should have been some kind of warning, about hanging with the show for more than 20 minutes, because it does get better.
I am glad that you stuck with it!
The show actually got better every episode!
This must be a Tim Minear thing (first couple of episodes of his series are boring or confusing).
Anyways, if you had said bad things about Wonderfalls, Jaye would have come to your house and destroyed your place, or at the very least she would have started dressing like you, talking like you, get a job where you work, asking your friends all about you, hanging out at your parent's house and fixing her hair like your's
After which she would get you fired and convince your family that you were crazy! Remember what LOUIS VUITTON said: "It's in the bag!"
