10 TV Shows That Should Never, Ever Be Made Into Movies. The only ones on the list that I’ve heard of are Quantum Leap and Small Wonder. Thought I had seen VR.5 once before, but I was thinking of VR Troopers. Which, in turn, makes me think of Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters From Beverly Hills. In relation to the topic, those two should never be dug up and made into movies.

Original Pilot, vs. Official Pilot: Which Shows Changed The Most? The Buffy pilot with Riff Regan gets a mention. I think there was also a pilot for Charmed, where there was a different actress playing Phoebe—that’s not on the list, though. Heroes gets a mention, as apparently it was originally going to be a lot darker than it turned out to be.

Disney bought Marvel Entertainment for $4 billion. And I had a sudden image of Stan Lee cackling in an evil mastermind sort of way, while wearing the mouse ears. Not sure why.

Peter Wingfield has been cast on Caprica. I really have no interest in BSG or its spin-off of Caprica, but having Wingfield there almost makes me want to watch it. Almost.

I just found out that apparently, there might be a blogathon to raise money for the Louisville library, after so much was damaged by the flooding. Found out about it via libraries.

From Cracked.com: 7 Iconic Characters They Saved From The Cutting Room Floor.

And lastly: Thanks to Comcast On Demand, I watched the final two episodes of season 1 for Being Human. I love the show now, and I’ll be looking for fanfic and icons.
