I especially like: "they loved the show because they loved the characters, so all the cast had to do was keep the faith and keep filming."

J Frid's presentation on Saturday of the results of 'The Game'-- a mixture of commentary and clips that ended with the screening of his personal favorite scene-- was really good.  However, and with no disrespect intended, sitting through his reading of Richard III on Sunday felt like a bit of a strain and was nowhere near as well received.  And while the blogger seemed to take a few pot shots at Selby's talk, his dramatic reading opposite Lisa Richards the following day was excellent, so I can't help but think that had Ms. McNamara instead attended their Sunday appearances, we might be reading a very different review on the Times' site.  I'm just sayin'.  :)
