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.

Okay, gang, here's what I do know. Kevin isn't far off. While the network hasn't said to me that they won't order more episodes, it sure does shake out that way. On Thursday they needed to extend their options on the cast and decided not to. Considering it would have been chump change for them, it basically means we're done.

I'm not ready to start hawking the 13 episode DVD set -- because I'm hoping it's gonna be a 15 episode set, including the two, you counted right, TWO! unaired pilots.

I'm pretty convinced the same thing that happened with a lot of the non-believers here with Wonderfalls and Firefly will happen if they get a chance to see the full 13 (well, 15).

I'm told by the network that they're "still supporting the show" and that we will continue to air. Which, if my experience tells me anything, means catch it while you can. If you wanna, I mean. I'm gonna make my bet right now that we'll have, not including any unaired pilots, six unaired episodes featured on that DVD set.

When I spoke to one my cast members about this, he offered that I must "be crushed." I'm not. This is pretty much what I expected, which doesn't mean I didn't pour every bit of energy, time and care I had into 13 episodes for the last year. I never consider it a waste of time. Or a waste of, well, their money. DVDs have changed a lot. If I end up being some little Americanized BBC, churning out limited series for DVD, and the people who employ me want to keep handing over 20 or 30 million dollars for me to do that, then I'll be perfectly content. There's something nice about being able to go from a hard drinking space western to a hard drinking whimsical comedy to a hard drinking abyss peering noir.

One final note, this press release for ComicCon is a bit premature. With things being what they are, that panel looks to be falling apart, so if you were going to make any plans based on it, don't. However X and the Plimsouls are playing that night in Orange County. Pretty sure I know where I'll be.

What if some soul (not me, because I am too old and tired) decides to take a Don Quixote stab at saving the show?

Would that serve anything other than crashing face-first into a windmill?

Allsyon, I discourage strongly any save-this-show attempts by anyone. It would be pointless and a waste of time.

Just to add -- I'm always looking out for the audience. Like Wonderfalls, episode 13 will not leave you hanging. I'm always workin' for the DVD, babe.

Tim, I'm truly sorry to hear they aren't picking up more episodes. But, I'm still happy that you got to make it for us to see, I hope it does eventually come out on DVD and if you set up your own BBC, I will watch all Tim, all the time.

Thanks for that.

And I'm sorry. I loved this, and will go insane waiting to see them all.

I hate to hear this Tim. I'm liking The Inside even more than Firefly or Wonderfalls. I wonder if this would be the case if it hadn't aired against Dancing With The Stars? Bah.

Is "..Harsh Mistress" very far away?

Glad to hear that your 13-episode pattern doesn't discourage, Tim. And I absolutely treasure my Wonderfalls DVDs and would be sad if they didn't exist, so thanks.

I still think it's a shame that the timeframe for big success is so tiny in TV today, and I'm slightly baffled at how often paid-for episodes aren't even aired. But that's the way it works, I guess.

Allyson, my guess is you'll end up seeing them sooner rather than later. Editing "Litte Girl Lost" and "Gem" now... they rock. Hee hee.
