First of all, you should not decide whether a show is good or not by a trailer/teaser.

Having said that, this is Joss we're talking about. Of course it's gonna be good!

OK, seriously.....the concept is an off-shoot of the River story taken to the next level. Gov't types meddling with our brain, except that we get to see what the "Alliance" ends up with.

But remember folks, this is Fox, the folks who invented meddling to the point of distraction, and nothing gets by them thats any good. Let the record show that a re-write was called for long before the pilot was in the can. So Good Luck Joss! We knew ye well.

To answer the question: Yes, there is no doubt that Joss has had to "dumb-down" the series to appease the Fox braintrust (now there's an oxymoron).

Looks good. Set's like the evil office on Angel.

Typical CIA MKULTRA Project Monarch mind-kontrol slave operation, with sexslavery, but without all that pesky kidnapping and kiddie porn. Aka River, aka Cathy O'Brien and Kelly O'Brien. Is Joss CIA???

Looks like Joss is skipping the funny BTVS seasons, and diving straight into the darkeness of the HellMouth TM, aka bombing Sunnyvale High School Hell.

Good timing for predictive programming, what with the US Civil War scheduled for 2009-2012. FOR REAL.

That's why I liked To Live and Die in LA this week. Another slayer was born, with Joss-style humor sans latex headgear.

Similar to the pre-BTVS Ladykiller Revolution, Total Recall 2070 TV series, where Matrix meets Blade Runner with brain chips, memory erasure and corporate death squads. Except women were sexy sex-crazed married hotties. With brain chips.

But it is DISTURBING to me that all these little girls are being brainwashed and recruited by TeeVee to be KILLERS. Not good news for guys playing the dating game, or hiring crazy hos.

That’s Friday the 13th.

I’m just saying.


So what is that saying about my TV show time slot of 1am EST on Friday nights (sat mornings)?

That's so late I can barely stay up to check quality control.

But it is streamed live worldwide, so it's primetime on the West Coast.

Looks like I'll run an MKULTRA show on Friday 13th.
