I always wonder why these cons don't ask Tim to attend. It seems odd to me.
I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

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

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
It is strange, Allyson. Tim was very entertaining both times I saw him in panel like discussions.
edited for stupid grammar.

I swear he's been written out of Firefly history. He is so awesome at panels. I've seen him just stand there forever after and talk to each fan who wanted to ask him something.

I thing you might be being a bit mama-bearish, Allyson. I really don't think he has been written out at all. And when anyone mentions the sequel to Serenity, Tim's name is the first one that pops up. Everyone is hoping he will write the sequel. I know I have my fingers crossed.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I swear he's been written out of Firefly history.Not that I wouldn't love to hear him talk for just about ever about Firefly and the 'verse, but I see it as now they are focusing on and promoting the movie.
And Tim was involved in the tv show, not the movie. I don't know why Tim wasn't involved in the movie (I am handwaving it as a timing conflict since that would make sense) but he wasn't.

Thanks for clearing that all up.

Oh dear... I wasn't implying at all that you didn't know that. Just stating my impression of it. And I don't think I was vague about that, but if I was then I should obviously offer an explanation of my words and an apology.

Not at all, I thought it was funny.

Much as I love Tim, I don't think he has nearly the sort of name recognition among genre fans as Joss does. I can see why convention organizers, many of whom may not actually be genre show fans themselves, might pass him over in favor of people who get more press. It's their loss.

He doesn't have the name recognition and yes it is their loss.
