Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If you decide to mourn a show you've never seen and that hasn't been cancelled, it's possible you're working too hard.
Have a cupcake instead.

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
Don't think there's any reason to whimper.
Tim took his time, he reshot scenes on the pilot so that it would be perfect, and I guess if I could speculate (I have no actual knowledge, me = stupid) it would seem that the higher ups at the network have really let him take his time to craft this, which leads me to believe that they really believe in it.
So, I don't know what will happen. Maybe it will launch in the Summer, maybe it will launch in the Fall.
I do wish that they'd leak a little tiny bit about the series, at least launch the site, get people good and buzzy about it. But if they're going to launch in the Fall, that would be premature, I think.
I don't know, I'm just talking bullshit instead of admitting that I have no real information.

I sound like one of those snotty, know-it-all fangurls that everyone hates, don't I?
Will stop now.

Allyson, maybe if you were talking to people who didn't know you, know you're not that, and who respect your credibility. Don't do that to yourself, here.

no.
a cupcake sounds good, but I had a slurpee instead.
I can't be fatalistic about a show that hasn't started. I've already dropped the recording of 3 shows so far this season, so my guess is that sometyhing strong will be able to pull a good audience.

I think the fatalistic feelings are all about FOX reaping what they have sown, in terms of audience confidence.
However, when fans get all, "oh, so this will be canceled, then," it creates a self-fulfilling prophecy.
