I spent half of Saturday at my parents discussing with my siblings the whole concept of downloading tv episodes from various sources on the net. I even managed to remember a few of the arguments people here were kind enough to raise last year, when I had the same problem with "Wonderfalls". I didn't manage to find a way for the prude me to watch downloaded episodes without feeling guilty about it, no matter how hard I tried to spin an argument, so - at least for now - no "The Inside" for me.
At some point, my brother looked at me and wondered what's going on that made me so interested in this question, all of a sudden. He was not the least bit surprised when my answer was "Tim has a new show that starts Wednesday". He only laughed at me for using a first-name only.
Oh, and I will be, of course, happy to update my little town with watch&post and post-watch-&-post posts (say that three times fast). According to what I've read before, these are the episodes names (Allyson? Kristen? Could you correct me if/when I'm wrong, please?):
New Girl in Town, Old Wounds, Pre-filer, Everything Nic, Loneliest Number, Point Of Origin, Thief Of Hearts, De-Clawed, Aidan, Little Girl Lost
As far as I know that's the episodes so far. The order could change if they're shuffled about on airing and such. David Fury has written an episode which is missing. 2 others to come, too.
I'm hoping "Little Girl Lost" is the Amber Benson episode (although I suspect it's actually the one after). If Amber's episode is called "You've got red on you", I may cry like the fan boy that I am.
Tim is a bastard. Since he mentioned Without A Trace I've seen about 15 episodes now. I'm hooked.
Oh, and I'm trying to convince Sky to pick up The Inside in the UK, too. Sky or E4 are good targets for picking up Fox shows here.
As far as I know, that's still the order.
I think the episode after Little Girl Lost is the Amber episode. Then there's Gem, which I think is 12. They're working on 13 now.
Kristen! I'm drinking coffee and putting in a load of laundry, and then will send you a giganticon email.
Little Girl Lost is a Rebecca ep. Amber's ep is called "The Perfect Couple."
I'm also jealous of people who saw the episodes. However, I listened to Tim talk about the episodes, which means I got the DVD commentary first.
YAY! I'm going to the Bean to work on three shortly but look forward to the gianticon email when I get back.
Brian Lowry at Variety isn't too impressed. Though his review isn't near the pan that the onliine guy at TV Guide gave us. Lowry hated Wonderfalls and Firefly -- he seems to hate this less. Is that good or bad? Actually, he seems to think I cribbed from Silence Of The Lambs. And he calls Rachel "the kind of cool blonde Hitchcock would have loved." I still feel like maybe I'm doing something right. But Cranberry's friend makes it possible for me to crank out the last one this weekend.
Is that good or bad?
I dunno. When you were thinking of the show you really wanted to do, were you thinking, "gee, i really want this to be the one Brian Lowry and the TV Guide Guy just love?"
Has Brian Lowry ever liked anything?
And he calls Rachel "the kind of cool blonde Hitchcock would have loved."
This is good.
And you're doing lots of stuff right. It's going to be fabulous.
As a matter of fact, Allyson, yes! I was thinking, "I hope that online guy at TV Guide with the Spike fixation and the name I can't quite recall doesn't think this is a boring baby." Or something.
I do disagree with Cranberry's friend on the coolest line front.
My favorite two lines so far are: "You pulled your gun on a ten-year-old? Awesome!"
And,
"You went to Web's house? Did he have furniture and cereal and stuff?"
