TV is our religion. A good book on a rainy day is our idea of heaven. And Pop Culture Playpen is our little corner of the interweb to share our various obsessions and rants about the wide world of popular culture, from wailing over Joss Whedon’s latest prematurely cancelled series to getting all giggly over another outbreak of cute between Supernatural’s Jared and Jensen.

Miss Penn, in her other, non-zudonym’d life, reviews books and films and interviews various daydreamers for a newspaper, so there will also be that kind of nonsense here. Read it if you’re super bored.

Miss Thropist knows more about random shiz than anyone else, and will occasionally deign to babble about it like a brook. So yes, more nonsense.

You probably didn’t hear it here first. But we’re going to go ahead and have a poke anyway.
