[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.
or that Espenson was working on it (didn't she work on Gilmore Girls ?)
Yep. She was actually going to be exec producing TC, if I recall, and she said at a conference that she'd read the TWoP recaps to see what kinds of things needed to be changed. I was a little interested to see what she'd do with it.
David Greenwalt left “Angel,” a show he co-created, after its third season to oversee ABC’s “Miracles” and UPN’s “Jake 2.O.” After both series quickly went belly-up, he briefly returned to “Angel” to direct its brilliant Italy-set antepenultimate episode, “The Girl In Question,” but really hasn’t been heard from since.
Huh.
Whoa. "antepenultimate" is the best word I've seen all day.
"antepenultimate" is indeed lovely, but "brilliant" is dead wrong.

Amy speaks for me.

I am just dumbstruck by Greenwalt trapped in the Graveyard of Lost TV Shows, howling "Piiiiiiillllottt" to an unforgiving wind.

So she hasn't been involved with it from the beginning? That would make much more sense.
And re: that undiscussable episode mentioned above: I don't see how someone with vision and hearing could get "good" when compared to other eps, much less "brilliant." Clearly, this writer is worth ignoring, except for a quick scan for cool words.
I still like the Italian episode, though I didn't think it was brilliant.
