Buffy ,'Beneath You'
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
Herc makes me sad since he was mean to COA that time, but he wrote some nice things about Tim's new series.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Other than that, it's about the triangle of Web, Rebecca and Paul -- Web and Paul both in existential battle for Rebecca's soul.”
Damn. That, in addition to even more gushing, leads me to be very excited for this show. Can't wait to check it out, and hope it lasts more than four episodes.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
What episode does Herc think Tim wrote that has the MoG moving into W&H's LA Offices? Is he confusing it with the Hyperion?
Oh well, at least he didn't gush about Tim's writing for Buffy.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
In an early Minear pilot script, a serial killer leads the FBI to a fictional and abandoned Los Angeles hotel named the Hyperion. Sad to say, the hotel, known to fans of the Buffiverse as the former worldwide headquarters of Angel Investigations, didn’t quite survive to the final shooting script. “But look for a very specific ‘Angel’ reference,” promises Minear.
This woulda been so cool.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I think he was talking about "Home," without paying attention to any sort of timeline that would make contextual sense. The way it's written makes it seem that the episode aired before Firefly went into production.
edit: the inevitable x-post

"Home."
*Smacks forehead*
I guess I just thought of that as before they actually moved in. But yeah, also, the timeline makes zero sense in the Firefly terms he was discussing.

I'm damn psyched for this show.

Getting the creator and writer of Miracles is almost if not just as awesome as when M.E. snagged Ben Edlund. Not to mention Jane E. on board too. This show is gonna rock!
