Minear will spend the Christmas break working on a rewrite on his adaptation of Heinlen?s The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress, and working on a pilot for a show he created for ABC.

Heh, that immediately reminded me of this.

Tomorrow morning I'm gonna sit down and figure out exactly what Fox needs in terms of what's missing from their scripted programming. No joke. I'll approach it scientifically and specifically. I'll create the hit pilot with franchise legs that will allow them to build big in the scripted area in such a way that they'll be able to relax a little and nurture slower building shows. Something that would give them some stability. That's what I'll create.
Then I'll sell it ABC.

What is even happening?

Heh. Me too, Edain. It also had me holding my breath that Minear might be doing two shows at once. He is in a haunted office, after all.

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 think he's just creating it and that's it. But I could be totally stoned on cold medicine.

Hey! I am totally stoned on cold medicine!

The evil is this way?

I am totally stoned on cold medicine!

This would be a good name for a rock band.

Allyson is a damned entertaining writer, yeah? And I say that not as the subject of her article. Well, I mean, I do... but, er, you know what I mean. She's just really good at it.

So you'll be first in line to buy my book, then?

If I only had a brain...

Allyson is both funny and devastating. I hope she never gets mad at me.
