The challenge now is putting the pieces back together and trying not to fall apart in the weeks ahead.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s so much to do, and these days I&#8217;ve enjoyed doing absolutely nothing except bemoan the slow demise of <i>Angel<\/i>.  I was forced to lie down on the couch for an entire day thanks in part to a debilitating migraine, so in that time I was reintroduced to Mal and Zoe and the misfit crew of Serenity.  Yes, as fate would have it, a day or so afterwards it was announced that there would be a <i>Firefly<\/i> <a href=\"\/%22http:\/\/www.cinescape.com\/0\/editorial.asp?aff_id=0&#038;this_cat=Movies&#038;action=page&#038;type_id=&#038;cat_id=270338&#038;obj_id=40969%22\">movie<\/a>.  It still won&#8217;t make up for the fact that next fall will be the first time in eight years without a Joss Whedon show, without a well written show that does not treat its audience like idiots.<br \/>\nI did not intend this to be a rant, honest.  I just want to recap a few things, but I suppose since I feel cheated by the WB and every other tv network lately, what can you expect.  Remember <i>Karen Sisco<\/i> or <i>Miracles<\/i>.<br \/>\nI will be watching <i>Wonderfalls<\/i> since it promises to be smart and funny and tragic.  After all, its by Tim Minnear.  I won&#8217;t be watching any more shows by the WB.  <i>Dark Shadows<\/i> is not <i>Angel<\/i> and quite frankly I&#8217;m not interested in watching a stupid soap opera about vampires.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Procrastination still has meaning in my life.
