they also did "space, above and beyond". i watched both as the networks killed them. grrr!

*giggles* i don't think of him as doing that. i think, while he can certainly be an arrogant jackass, he simply wanted to be near his damn wife and not ruin her career shipping her to canada.

I don't think I knew they did 'final destination' either. I enjoyed that movie.

Duchovny was stuck up before he got married. And Chris Carter made me mad because he couldn't keep his mythology stories together. My friend [livejournal.com profile] beckanon has this theory that, while people like Joss looked at the internet as a way to communicate and get feedback from fans, Carter didn't know how to react to it and paniced when he saw people putting the pieces together and tried to spite them by adding plot twists that made no sense.

Joss really spoiled me when it comes to continuity and respecting of the fans.

agreed!

it got to a point where the fans knew more than the creators, and I think, cared more than the creators.

heehee- that is my theory, isn't it? I have so many theories I lose track of them..

To Chris Carter's credit, although he was not the first writer to deal with a rabid fandom, he may have been one of the first witers to deal with a rabid fandom on the internet, which can be a scary thing. Joss at least had a bit of a chance to see how the internet changed the whole writer-fan dynamic, and fortunately decided to work with the fans and not against them.

David Duchovny was always an asshat. Or at least way too arrogant, considering that GA could and still can act circles around him :-)

Bleak House rocks, btw. Not something to get into mid-way, though. I've seen the first ep once and the 2nd twice, and I'm still a bit confused.

oh bugger me! I forgot to tape it last night!

Hm...wonder how soon Netflix will have the DVD. I need to just sit down and watch the first episode.

I never understand dickens first time round, in any format!

Yeah, that's true about DD...I think I was just young and foolish when I fangirled over him...
