I enjoyed Lost until the last ep. But completely agree on the last sentence there.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I don't have a hate-on for Lost like some people. I see its flaws and don't care because I still enjoy what it gives me.

I'm choosing to decide that this is wrong like a wrong thing.

And I third the BAH!

Well, the performers are still good, and there's a lot of excellent acting on display. But I've completely lost all respect for the narrative (and those crafting it), and with Fury gone I don't have much hope for improvement next season.

I don't think anyone really cares as long as it works.

If FOX really has passed on renewal, does this mean that Tim's development deal with FOX has come to an end?

THE INSIDE never forgets the baggage it burdens the guest characters with, and there's always the certainty at fade out that these people go on with the horrors they've witnessed etched on their souls.

I agree with that. You do get the sense of lingering aftereffects from the events of the episode.

Tim's deal is with 20th, not FBC. I'm not sure when it's up for renewal.

From the ComicCon site

Friday 5:30-6:30 Fox Presents: The Inside—The Inside explores the dark intricacies of FBI investigative work, as well as the personal sacrifices required of Rebecca Locke (Rachel Nichols, The Amityville Horror, Dumb and Dumberer) and her Violent Crimes Unit teammates as they move from one gruesome serial crime to the next. Rounding out the team are Danny Love (Adam Baldwin, Serenity, Firefly), Paul Ryan (Jay Harrington, Summerland), Melody Sim (Katie Finneran, Wonderfalls), Carter Howard (Nelsan Ellis), and Virgil “Web” Webster (Peter Coyote, The 4400, E.T.) as head of this rogue FBI division. The cast is joined by creator/writer/director Tim Minear (Wonderfalls, Firefly, X-Files), Howard Gordon (24), Jane Espenson (Tru Calling, Buffy), David Fury (Lost, Angel, Buffy), and Craig Silverstein (The Dead Zone) for a Q&A session.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I may be correct in saying they've passed ordering new episodes this over the already produced one this season (as it, might only have a 13 (?) episode first season). But then, I might not be right.

Either way, if they choose to keep TI on air until August time I could well imagine it picking up viewers big style - but if FBC want to risk it I don't know.

ETA: from what I can gather apparently Fox had an option on a 2nd season order on Thursday, and chose to pass. Apparently.
