For some reason I’m not sure about I watched “Scarpetta” - the whole series.
I still have no clue what was happening most of the time. I actually prefer “Silent Witness” and that show is beginning to annoy me.
Now, I have read about half of Patricia Cornwell’s books, and I don’t remember any of them being as gloopy as the TV series. Nor do I remember them as being quite so full of horrible characters. Kay’s sister in particular I wanted to die a death. Kay herself was annoying and Lucy nearly as much. The only character I liked was the dead wife.
I also struggled with telling current events from flashbacks. They could at least have given Kay different hairstyles.
All in all, a waste of my time.

warrington_runcorn_ntdp is a new fan-run community focused on the music of electronic project Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan.Anyone is free to join, even those who have never listened before! Although if that is you, I'd recommend checking out the project's Soundcloud, Bandcamp, and Youtube to get acquainted :D
Discussion on the community will include, but is not limited to, avourite songs/albums/album artwork, physical media, how you discovered the music, recommendations for similar music, etc.
The current rules are pretty standard: no harassment/discrimination against any other Dreamwidth users; no NSFW/explicit content unless it's directly connected to the community's theme; and please keep any posts/comments on topic as much as possible. Anything else can be decided on in the future.
I (
oceangrey) am the current only moderator/admin, but if anyone else wants a similar role just message me or comment on the community's pinned post!Tags:
It's challenge time!
Comment with Just One Thing you've accomplished in the last 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing that you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.
Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling particularly accomplished! Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!
Nothing is too big, too small, too strange or too cryptic. And in case you'd rather do this in private, anonymous comments are screened. I will only unscreen if you ask me to.
Go!

(burnhername posting in su_herald Mar. 17th, 2026 06:53 pm)
burnhername posting in su_herald Mar. 17th, 2026 06:53 pm)We have changed our tag for the Hulu Sequel that was not picked up, which was named New Sunnydale. Previously the tag was "Hulu Sequel" but now we are tagging it "Hulu Pilot". (If it had been picked up and named New Sunnydale, that would have become the new fandom tag.) Our other fandom tags include: btvs, ats, buffy comics, slayers: a buffyverse story - to name some but not all. See the full list on our tags page.
Reblogs of "hulu sequel" have been changed to "hulu pilot" for the Digest. We will be updating our tags page soon.
There have been a lot of posts about the Pilot not getting picked up. A double Herald covering Sunday and Monday is delayed, but will be released sometime Tuesday (US time). It will include a lot of posts about the pilot. These will be labeled so you can read or avoid them as you like.
We anticipate this surge of activity about the pilot to die down at some point. Perhaps it will lead to more new viewers watching the original show (or movie). Perhaps it will lead to more fan art, fan videos, and fan fiction as people channel their pilot hopes and dreams into creative fanworks. We will see, and continue to document it in the Herald Newsletter.
As always, if you are interested in joining the crew that puts out one of the longest running (since 2004) fandom newsletters, reach out. We can always use a backup editor or more tumblr rebloggers.
Our contact info is available in the tumblr sidebar and LiveJournal/Dreamwidth profile as always. You can also comment on this post. Cheers!
