for shiggles and gits: Kring interview 2010
just for scheissengiggles, this interview was posted the last day the original series ended.
someone dug it up for the AV Club's finale review, which was an admitted GENEROUS "C-", while 56 (so far) viewers gave it an aggregate "D." (raised up from D- earlier)
