Thanks so much to halcyon_shift and lcsbanana for beta-ing.

Notes: VR.5 ran briefly on the Fox network in 1995. Thirteen episodes were produced; only ten aired in the original run although the remaining three eventually aired on SyFy. The show starred Lori Singer as Sydney Bloom, a computer geek who discovers that the virtual reality computer system she has built enables her to enter other people's unconscious minds.

Unfortunately, VR.5 is not available on commercial DVD; hence the fuzziness in the vid.

why, why, Show, did you have to die? Whhhhhyyyyyyyy?

ETA: I am probably going to have to create .avis of the eps and post them because... wow. oh, show.

... and I really do like the song I eventually found.

The only problem is, the source is in such bad shape that I don't think anyone will be able to actually make out what's on the screen enough to see why the song works. But, you know, you can imagine really cool clip-lyric matches.

savetheproject is a fandom auction to benefit the The Virginia Avenue Project, a free afterschool arts and academics program. 100% of participating children graduate from high school. 90% go on to college. 85% are the first person in their family to go.

Due to budget cuts, unless we can raise $15,000 by mid-March, we will lose our centerpiece program, the One-on-Ones. In this program, professional actor/writers write a short play to act in with the kid they're paired with, rehearse it with them in a beautiful countryside summer camp, and then return to Los Angeles to put on a show. This program has been running continuously for 20 years - let's not lose it now!

Please help save the One-on-Ones by spreading the word, bidding at the auction, and/or offering something for people to bid on. Click on the "offered" or "seller" tags on the right-hand side of the page to see who's got an auction up and what people are offering.

that I never know whether to say "congratulations" when, say, an RPF story gets tweeted by its subject and ends up linked on Boing Boing.

So, halfamoon is now running. It's a 2-week tribute to female characters in fandom, and I kind of have an urge to make a vid about one of my favorite female characters from one of my favorite obscure-prematurely-canceled-not-even-available-on-commercial-DVD shows, and all I have is a song that will do as good as any although it's not necessarily perfect, and not even much of a concept beyond "Pretty! Cool!!!"

I really have to exercise some restraint.
