I won the first challenge of the Gilmore Girls Last Author Standing! You can read it here for now, if you like. If she ends up deleting the posts, I'll move it to my journal. It's Rory/Jess and Rory/Logan-centric, leaning more towards the former. I am a Literati fan, after all. :)

I have no idea how I'm doing in the Whoverse Last Author Standing. I got one positive vote on my first fic and neither positive nor negative on my second. This lack of feedback is beginning to be a habit with me and Whofics. It's like there's some clique and I'm not part of it. Whenever I post fics, I hardly ever get any comments, whilst other authors get droves of them. And the same things happening with the LAS. Sorry I wasn't a fan since the very beginning. It's not like it's wildly popular over here. It's hard to be an American DW fan. You can't just walk into any store and ask if they have DW merchandise. You'll get blank stares. And the only channel that plays it over here cuts the episodes!

Speaking of Doctor Who, Moffat has announced that there will be no Daleks in series six. Funny, since I remember him saying that about series five. Let's see if he keeps his word this time. Moffat is also going to split the series into TWO PARTS! The first seven episodes will play in the spring and then the last six will play in the fall. Because of some "game-changing" event, he wants the audience on the edge of their seats the entire summer. STUPID MOFFAT!

Let's revisit LOST season three, shall we? ABC decided it would be totally awesome to split the season into two sections, 9 episodes in the fall, the remaining 13 in the spring. Thanks to this lengthy hiatus, the viewership dropped from about 18-20 million viewers per episode to 12-14 million. Then the writers' strike came in season four, and the viewership dropped even more.

In conclusion, people have short attention spans. You take too long of a break during the season of a highly mythological and story-driven show, you will lose lots of viewers. Moffat is going to single-handedly destroy the show. Well done, Sir. *snarks*

And speaking of LOST, IT DIDN'T WIN A SINGLE EMMY! I admit that I hated the last fifteen minutes of the show, but come on! It was it's last season. Couldn't they have shown it the respect it long deserved? When The Sopranos went off the air the academy gave them a bunch of emmys. Why not LOST? Fricken hell. And Foxy once again does not get the accolades he deserves. Because apparently, playing an illegal drug dealer is more noteworthy than playing a self-sacrificing, humble Doctor. Give me a break. :(
