[QUOTE="takyris, post: 1433880, member: 5171"] Piel, I posted this on another board. It's a tad snarky, but, from what I saw, it captures Tru Calling quite well: "Calling is off my season pass list, after I realized that I could write an episode in my sleep: Tru: Hey, Harrison. Harrison: Hey, Tru, look at me! (presses button that drops anvil on his head) Tru: D'oh. Hey, Meredith. Meredith: Hey, Tru, look at me! (snorts entire contents of kitchen-cleaning box up her nose). Tru: D'oh. Hey, boss-person. Boss: Hey, here's a nun who was killed by Jews. Nun: Tru, save me. Tru: (flashes back, wakes up on morning of the same day) Hey, anybody seen a nun? Harrison, don't drop an anvil on your head. Harrison: Tru, I know what I'm doing. Tru: Meredith, I need help with a nun. And don't snort that. That's Clorox. Meredith: Tru, you can't save everyone, just like you couldn't save your mom from being killed before your eyes by a murderer who has never been caught. Oh, and the nun is actually a white supremecist whose father was a guard in Auschwitz. Tru: Oh, crap, moral ambiguity. Nun: Hey, I've gone through some tough stuff. Tru: Yeah, that's great, could you just not run into any Jews this afternoon? Harrison, get away from the button! Harrison: Tru, you can't control me, I'm a wild man! I'm a hip young guy with longings! Jews: We wouldn't start fights, but if we ran into someone whose father was a guard in Auschwitz, we'd do what we had to. Tru: Could you be a little more specific? Nazi: Haha! I'm going to frame the Jews by killing the nun and making it look like they did it! Hey, Harrison, nice button! Tru: Suddenly I know martial arts! (pushes Harrison out of way as Nazi pushes the button and gets crushed by anvil) Meredith: Wow, Tru, I guess you were right, it wasn't the Jews that killed that nun. Arg, giant purple spiders are eating my legs! (twitches uncontrollably) Tru: Oh, I saved Harrison, but I can't save you, so I guess we're stuck in a continuing story arc. Joss: Really, Eliza, "Faith the Vampire Slayer". Just think about it. Real writers and everything. Tru: Dude, what's the big? Your Fox series didn't even last a whole season! (end credits)" [/QUOTE]
