Re: Summer Travel

OK, this is more like spring travel. I'm headed to DC for work this weekend....just in time for the cherry blossoms. Score.

Re: MSCL suggested by The Wire as Sasha Obama's Preference

Ha, I've actually watched MSCL on my iPad in China. I made my Chinese friend sit through an episode. She was completely bewildered. "Chinese high school is very different," she said. I tried to tell her that American high school wasn't exactly like this, either.

Re: JARED/JODAN Speaks!

It must be weird to be defined by a single project you did so many years ago. It would be like going to your 20th high school reunion and having people only want to ask you about what you did senior year rather than all of the things that have happened in your life since then. I barely remember seni...

Re: You Know You Have a My So-Called Life Addiction When...

...you have the entire series on your iPad. What can I say? I travel a lot and I need my fix when I'm away from home.

Wow, that is beautiful. Possibly even so beautiful it hurts to look at it.

Re: The So-Called Word Association

Exactly right! I'll always love that definition of irony - pure Brian.

As for "factory" - that's good old Mr. Racine when he tells Angela to drop out of school...to get out of the "mind control factory".

Next - "Take a second chance"

Re: Newbies!

Guten Tag, Bernd! A Blu-Ray release would be amazing...if the original masters are of high enough quality to begin with. Otherwise we will just get high resolution graininess. The idea of a reunion mini-series is interesting but I don't see how they could pull it off to the fans' satisfaction. Even ...

MSCL on EW's "Most Frustrating Season Finales" List

OK, so this is a few weeks old but I just saw this linked from CNN today. The link is below if you want to see who else made the list but I pasted all of the MSCL text here. Enjoy! My So-Called Life Aired: Jan. 26, 1995 (series finale) Just when Angela Chase (Claire Danes) seemingly got everything s...

Re: Summer Travel

I was in China this summer and I showed my friend there the first episode of MSCL on my iPad. She was totally confused! She asked my why no one in the show seemed to be doing any studying. The hallway scenes bewildered her and I'm not sure she knew what to make of Brian's hair. At the end she just t...

Re: Your MSCL watching habits

What would people think about some kind of viewing party? We could get a bunch of members to commit to watching the whole series, one episode per week, and comment in the appropriate thread. If we plan this in advance maybe we could get as many as *gasp* 10 people involved? It might be a good way to...

Re: The So-Called Word Association

Angela in Father Figures: "When someone compliments your parents, there's, like, nothing to say. It's like a stun gun to your brain." Next: abnormal Jordan says this in "Pressure". He and Angela are having an awkward conversation about having/not having sex. He tells her, "It's what you're supposed...

Re: Summer Travel

I'm so glad you made it to the Grand Canyon, Jody! 'Majesty' is definitely the right word for it. And I think it still qualifies as a road trip. I hope I can get back there in the near future. No classic road trips for me this summer but I will have two work trips to China. I'm not sure if I'll have...

Re: What do you think they would be doing now?

Excellent thread and bravo for your well reasoned suppositions of what our cast of heroes would be doing now. I found myself suddenly envisioning a reunion special and wondering how the characters would be portrayed. Mind you, I don't think there should be a reunion special but I am still curious as...
