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.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

[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.

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.

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!

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
Preach it. I've been on pins and needles since November.

Minear wrote and directed the best episodes of “Angel” series creator Joss Whedon didn’t write and direct.
Is he smocking crack?!? While I'm of the opinion that Joss' best work on Buffy eclipses Tim's on Angel by a hair, most of his episodes of the latter are widely regarded as run-of-the-mill. (When they weren't actively racing the Tidy Bowl Man, as was the case with "Happy Anniversary.")
“But look for a very specific ‘Angel’ reference,” promises Minear.
This, however, makes me happy.
