And my friend was thinking that with the scene of Guber using the blue prints to find where the secret lair is, and since it is well known DEK sold his soul, obviously Boston Public is the anti-BtVS particle (season 7 variety) teevee scientists have theorized. Both use blue prints to find the Hellmouth / Senior Study Room. Both principals are black men with shaved heads and goatees, but one is fat and one is skinny. One has characters having sex in the basement, the other has "from beneath you, it devours". One has a talented visionary, the other has David E. Kelly. 2001@blogcritics.org Tue, 12 Nov 2002 13:21:10 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2002/11/12/110646.php#comment-2000 Of course, Guber is hardly a model of exemplary conduct whose moves are meant to be uncritically accepted: this is a man who inadvertantly encouraged a riot in the school halls in the season opener, after all. At times, he functions (as do other characters on the show) more as a thematic provocateur than a fully realized person . . . 2000@blogcritics.org Tue, 12 Nov 2002 12:26:48 EST
