I've mentioned this before briefly, but during college, in an effort to save the about-to-be-canceled show, I made a 'zine about "My So-Called Life," the title of which was...wait for it...My So-Called 'Zine! (Awww, yeah, go on with your clever self, girl...SNAP!) I even sent a copy to ABC, who must have passed it along to the cast, because guess who sent me a really cool postcard in return? Brian Krakow, aka Devon Gummersall, who apparently is slated to appear in the season finale of Lifetime's new series "Drop Dead Diva," a show I've been meaning to check out. Now that Krakow's going to be on it? DVR set!   


I call this: "Why you should always pay attention to the nerdy boys in high school"...DELICIOUS!

And to answer the question I know you're asking, YES, I own the complete "My So-Called Life" series on DVD - the one that came with a MSCL lunch box. And I still have that postcard from Devon, somewhere, though I have yet to track down a copy of the one and only 'zine I ever made...but I remain hopeful. In the meantime, enjoy one of my all-time favorite moments from the show (despite the fact that it's sans Krakow or Jordan Catalano). When I first watched this scene, I cried and cried and cried, and it STILL gets me to this day (like, lump in throat and tears in eyes right now):

 


Friendship betrayals and break-ups, especially between girls, might be the most heartbreaking of all...not to mention this is the only time I've ever found the quintessential high school play
Our Town to be even remotely interesting.
