[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.

Seeing as a ton of Whedonesque and buffista humans are here, welcome. I'd just like to chime in on THE INSIDE and say Tim Minear did a hell of a job. I look forward immensely to the rest of the run.

I finally watched it last night, and the lighting was amazing. Perhaps it also contributed to why I had trouble sleeping.

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
Huh. I think it's so interesting that Warren Ellis is all, "I'm not going to be involved in any grassroots movement to save GF."
That's kinda neat.

Yes! I did. And, um, how do YOU feel about The Inside?
I totally love this guy. What a magnificently lovely bastard!
I laughed until it hurt.
