Incompetents R Us - iTunes

[wraithfodder]

In the latest screwup with Stargate Atlantis (the first being 'screener copies' of "Adrift" and "Lifeline" getting leaked out), now iTunes (aieee!) released "Doppelganger" instead of "Adrift." While a number of fans got their hands on it, the vast majority can't see it (iTunes apparently yanked it after probably informed by MGM - I'd love to have heard that phone conversation, or email (all in caps, I'm sure). I can sure see why NBC doesn't want anything to with iTunes as heck, they'd probably release HEROES out of order! ;) NBC was sooo right to sever ties with iTunes as this could conceivably harm SGA ratings for this episode. I mean, why watch it if you've got it on download? Sigh.

So, now must avoid certain forumsthreads until October 19th as some folk give away too much even in what they consider to be 'vague' comments. Sigh.

Going into v-fib! Quick! Get me some IV fluids! Wide open! And some Epinephrine! STAT!

I love that I never have any idea what all that means, but I put it into fics anyway! ROFL!

I used to watch EMERGENCY! (old NBC paramedic series) so got pretty good at the lingo ;)

Aww! Me too! I've VHS tapes filled with them! God, I was so in love with Johnny Gage. I think I even wrote a Mary Sue about it when I was 12 or so. Sigh. Good times...long time ago...

I need to find those tapes.

I dread to think if they remade that show now. Oh wait, they sort of have with ER. Paramedics punching people. Aieee! I got all three seasons of Emergency on DVD. Must rewatch 'em all.
