Of course I'm probably reading into stuff too deeply.
Yeppers. Though, I don't live in their heads. They could either be plotting each other's deaths as we speak, or trading banana bread recipes over English Breakfast tea.
We're proud to say that the Class of '99 has the lowest mortality rate of any graduating class in Sunnydale history.

The Minearverse 3: The Network Is a Harsh Mistress
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
We could get him a special t-shirt just to wear to interviews: My name is Tim Minear. I never worked on Buffy. Prepare to die.
BWAH! this would be great.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
But I love Tim's work on Buffy!
By the way, my mom called her boyfriend Hulot, after the Hulot in M. Hulot's Holiday. At least she didn't juggle geese.

If I only had a brain...
Isn't that a bit like calling your boyfriend Mr. Bean?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Just add a phonetic pronunciation for Minear, and it's beauty. You know, for the radio/TV interviews.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
I seem to recall vaguely that Tim and Todd were more writer guys and Bryan more director guy.
So while they all were instrumental as a production team, the writing partners would number only two.
Not three. So the number you will count shall not be three.
Then again, I could be smokin' something odd. IJS.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Todd and Bryan were the originators of the series - Tim was brought in by Fox after the pilot was done. And he and Bryan referred to themselves as a writing team during production. Maybe Todd and Tim just had less opportunity to work closely than the latter two did?
Hell, he thinks Amelie (which I rather enjoyed) was deep?
Well, it kind of dealt with deep subjects like love, destiny, family responsibility, and social maladjustment. But the way it dealt with them was like a beautiful meringue-topped trifle stitting on a lace doily.

Todd is a director. Bryan is a writer.

I think that is true. Todd was the one in Canada for most of the filming.
