'War Stories'
[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.
Liked the teaser. And they show the credits -- which is kind of funny.
Plus the yahoo timer thingy is funky -- the seconds go to 60 before they switch the minute.
It would be fun if they put the teaser for the next episode up on the official website the day after the show -- like they were doing for Veronica Mars at the end of this season.
Here's a review from the Chicago Tribune (registration required I think):
There are some spoilery bits. Overall, the message is, "Do we need another cop drama? Yes, if it's done well."
Still, just as Fox's "House" seemed somewhat derivative of other medical shows at first, only to develop into an unpredictable treat, "The Inside" may just evolve into something other than yet another cop-shop drama.
"This is a show about damaged people . . . and about how their damage sometimes makes them especially suited to the work they do," Minear wrote on "The Inside's" official Web site.
It's a brave concept, and the show may yet live up to that audacious idea.
It seems like any comparison to House is a Good Thing. Speaking as someone who enjoys that show--and it gets ratings like whoa, doesn't it?

It did once American Idol was its lead-in.
3 and 1/2 hours. and thunder storms rolling in. Hope I don't have the power knocked ou......
I was thinking of posting a reminder in Press. Just in case there are one or two Buffistas with horribly bad memories like mine. Overkill?
Nah.
Probably, Typo. The thread's right under their noses, if they care.

Is something going on? What'd I miss?
Yes, I'm kidding.
The Fox forum just posted that a "writer or two" will be posting there during the West Coast's viewing.
Does this mean no Tim for watch and post?
Sad now.
