   Um, yeah. It is. And I got the idea to say it from *you*, who posted the   
   following a few weeks ago:   
      
   *****   
   Thirdly, it's fiction, shut the fuck up and enjoy it for what it's worth   
   instead of being nitpicky.   
   *****   
      
   Are you always this inconsistent, or only when you can use it as an excuse   
   to attack someone?   
      
   Or did my post about how nitpicking can be fun, as long as it's not taken   
   too seriously, actually change your mind?

   My opinion is almost precisely the opposite. It could have been a good idea,   
   but it was lacking in execution, and came out pretty unimpressive in the   
   end. (Compared to other XF, not other shows. )

   The phrase 'jump the shark' jumped the shark a long time ago.

   OMG!!! People posting in an newsgroup dedicated to a TV show are acting like   
   FANS???   
      
   Something must be done immediately!!!
