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.
From Entertainment Weekly:
Starring Rachel Nichols, Peter Coyote, Jay Harrington What It's About The FBI's Los Angeles Violent Crimes Unit has a new recruit (Nichols). The boss (Coyote) wants to exploit her past--a childhood abduction that allows her to get inside the minds of both criminals and victims. The agency's conscience (Harrington) wants to protect her from that heartless boss--and possibly her never-caught kidnapper. What to Expect A character drama disguised as a procedural. "I don't know anything about law. I don't know anything about order. I can, however, make up s---," explains cocreator Tim Minear (Angel, Firefly, Wonderfalls). Brought on board after Fox ditched a pilot that had Nichols working undercover in a high school, Minear introduced the kidnapping backstory, a new supporting cast, and kinky plots like one about a killer who targets high-powered women into S&M. Says Nichols, "We went from 21 Jump Street to Silence of the Lambs." Why We're Optimistic Fox wants scary, and Minear isn't afraid to give them "the feel-good dead-baby episode of the season." --Mandi Bierly
There was a short blurb in the hard copy edition of TV Guide for this week about The Inside and other summer fare. I don't remember exact wording but it was positive.
I love the EW blurb.
"I don't know anything about law. I don't know anything about order. I can, however, make up s---,"
Hee!

They even got this right. Go EW!
That's our boy. Or man. Or whatever.
Beagle update: Within two hours of being in the house, the new beagle peed on my sister's bed.
Yay.
(Wait, that's the bed I have to sleep in when I go home. Whine.)
In other news, tomorrow I will be at boyf's house and can check to see if The Inside is showing up on his DVR yet. As soon as it does I will set it to record all. If he and his roomie have a problem, I'll add $5 a week to my rent or something (staying there for the summer).
I like this bit:

You know, there's a reason people bought AiBos.
*delurk*
Well, okay, *de-quasi-lurk*
I'm all set to watch The Inside. TiVo is all Season Pass'd up.
I found out yesterday I'm going to be a Nielsen household in late June.
That is all.
