Based upon the limited input thus far, this is my strategy for tomorrow at 9. I can only buy 8 tickets total for any one event. (for most events, that means 6 student tickets). They have to be purchased in blocks of 4. I have to use my membership for 4 and my wife's for the other 4. I, and everyone else, start with the perceived "most in demand" show and work their way down. Cult faves sell out quicker than mainstream hits (Most Paleyfest people are not your average TV watcher) Therefore, for example, Buffy will likely be a quick sell-out as will Pushing Daisies.
My strategy is going to be as follows:
I'm going to try for 4 Buffy tickets, followed by 8 Apatow tickets, followed by 8 Damages, followed by some Madmen and Pushing Daisies attempts. This won't work. We won't get everything we want. It's very much worth going to even if we're all watching Chuck, but I'll do my best to get a good allotment. I will hand them out based upon who has posted. Many of you have not posted a request yet. If anyone has a radically different thought or objection to this approach, time's ticking away...

So what exactly are we gonna do at the Paley fest? Is it just a panel with the people, or are going to be showing original episodes of the show? If they're actually gonna show new episodes or stuff then please put me down for Mad Men, if not then I'll go to the Tracy Ullman thing. Thanks.

I can't describe in words how much I want to go to the Apatow segment - His films (save Arrested Development) are the closest I've seen in recent cinema to my sense of humer/understanding of life and how I hope to portray that in film/television. Right before I came here I re-purchased/rented all of his films on HD DVD and watched all of the extras and commentary and re-watched each film about 2-4 times, letting all of the comments from everyone involved sink in and motivate me to work hard in my classes in LA. Mad Men would also be awesome, but it does not have near the personal connection/importance that the Apatow tickets would mean to me. Thanks, see everyone in a couple days!
