I'm really ignorant; this has seemed to me like a really long delay between pilot and airing. Is this typical? I thought the general rule was pilot in April, air in Fall.

[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.

The original show was supposed to be a mid-season replacement. A lot has changed since then.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
A classic example of this is the live-action "Tick" series, which got held back for almost a year from when it was initially supposed to run. By the time it finally got to air, the series had wrapped shooting for so long, there was virtually no chance of getting all the principals back, even if it were a hit.

Well that's not really the situation here. They only started production on the new and improved The Inside in December.

Mooooooom! Tom's making me cry about the Tick again.

Really, what's Nelson up to anyway? Probably not taking advantage of his gift for comedy. Bat Manuel was soooo much greater than Der Fledermaus.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You mean Nestor, Hec? Forgettable time on Century City, for one.

That's him! Nestor Carbonel, right?
Anyway, he's got brilliant comic chops, and his good looks will probably prevent him from getting those kind of jobs. Look how it stunted Cary Grant's career!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
