Express: POLL! chat, and cancellations
Hello, all! I’m back, spewing more Express experiences to fully satisfy your vicarious journalistic needs!
First off: an important poll!
What is Randy “The Ram” Robinson’s fate at the end of “The Wrestler?”
He’s dead. Get over it.
or
He lives! Yay for sequel options!
[please post answer as a comment because poll tools are being extremely temperamental]
I promise this is work-related. Well, kind of.
Onto the happenings! Only two days in this post, thanks to Memorial Day and its fantastic ability to completely throw off my sense of days and dates.
TUESDAY (<- I wrote that as Monday twice already) 5/26:
-thank you, ewire.
I’ve just learned some absolutely fantastic news. Both “Scrubs” and “Chuck” will return to television next fall season (though Scrubs will no longer be centered around JD/Zach Braff), while “My Name is Earl” and “Kath and Kim” were cancelled.
All I have to say is good riddance to bad rubbish. “Earl”‘s Jaime Pressly pulls off the “white-trash ho” bit a little too well…which (besides being sadly the most interesting part of the show) may explain why she’s been typecast ever since (coincedentally) “Poor White Trash.”
Also, “Kath and Kim” may have been successful in Australia, but introduce Molly Shannon to absolutely anything and it’s sure to find it’s way to the chopping block.

We're cancelled? Shucks, I guess that means we should stop hanging out on lawn chairs so much...
-Back to the Express…today I had a meeting with Amy and Dustin regarding the next couple issues of [EXPOSED] – Amy has a lot of vacation time coming up, so Dustin’s being placed in charge. I’m basically continuing on as usual, but I need to figure out my angle for the road trip story.
Wednesday 5/27
-There is a box on Amy’s chair the size of a small dog.
10:02 a.m: The box has been opened. It’s….basically a ton of barbecue sauce. More than anyone should ever need.
-Today I led a chat (note: CoverItLive = awesome chat hosting program) – It focused on the Musikfest 2009 Mid-Atlantic band competition, which offers area bands spots to perform at the festival in August. Since Dustin gave me partial reign of the [EXPOSED] myspace, I sent out invitations to all the bands via their pages, and a good 6-7 of the 20 showed up. It went really well, and as far as the Quad goes, it’s possible that we could incorporate a chat room in some way in conjunction or separate from our weekly podcast idea.
You can replay the chat here. Yay for sherpas.
To vote in the second round of the competition (narrowing 10 bands to four) click here.
That’s it for today, folks. Please vote in the above poll, and spread it around to your friends, neighbors, estranged family members, and pets.
peace&love,
Tara T.
“The Ram” lives! I think I smell “The Wrestler 2: Electric Boogaloo.” Anyone else?
I’m saying dead, but the door is still open to some prequels, or as I call them: George Lucas needs another ranch-quels
p.s. Hell yeah on the Molly Shannon bashing! I am NOT a fan. Not sure why either, just rubs me the wrong way I suppose
