[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.

Saw this transcript of a Q&A over at Whedonesque:
Q – I was just wondering what if any input Tim Minear had into the movie and your experiences working with him on the show?
Summer – He will never come to our parties. He won’t come. He really likes to work, and he was very busy on another film when we were making Serenity and we would beg him to come and visit us and he wouldn’t. I know that he saw a rough cut of the movie and he really, really loved it. He had some great notes and he helped Joss there at the very end. But I do know, and I’m not sure if I’m supposed to say this, but I do know that if there is any more work on Serenity that Tim will be involved.
Nathan – Oh my god you’re not supposed to say that
Summer – (covering her mouth in mock horror) Too late.
Nathan – (To Morena) Tell us a story about Tim Minear.
Morena – To be perfectly honest…
Nathan – You’ve said enough.
Morena – I really just enjoyed the writing that he gave my character and I enjoyed working with him as a director very much. It was really nice to have him on set because he was very laid back and he was there for us. It was easy to be around him. I felt very creative, one of my most creative episodes was with him so I enjoyed working with him.
Nathan – Tim Minear is a very wonderful man. He’s very much like Joss Whedon in that he is extremely intelligent, extremely creative and can impart ideas to you that you would never think of without making you feel stupid and he’s also always really, really excited about Firefly, very, very excited about Serenity. We would do a Firefly episode and he would direct or write it and have a really great time and the following week while he was putting it together we would be doing another episode and he would come to the set and say “I’ve got a rough cut of the episode you want to see it at lunchtime” and we’d be so excited we’d be like little girls.
Morena – O.K. when you say we, do you think you should have included me in that?
Nathan – I meant Tim and all his favourite actors – me!
cute.
They lurve him.
He's a lurveable guy.
so cute and definitely lurvable.
I'm tempted to buy Tim a copy of Hypochondria Can Kill but I fear I'd become a one note girl.
Just got back from Antigua, Guatemala. Will possibly read the last 300 posts later unless somebody warns me in the next 10 minutes that it's entirely FCM, in which case I probably won't bother.
My point, though, is this:
In Guatemala, the local Fox-related network is not only showing The Inside starting this Tuesday, they're promoting the HELL out of it. I caught something like 3 awesome, long previews with cast interviews and the whole bit, and I seriously only had the TV on for a grand total of perhaps 2 hours in the two weeks I was there, and most of that was Clueless on HBO. I also managed to catch a bit of The Witch with scarily bad dubbing, but that's another story.
Anyway, my point: are Fox-related networks in other countries going to air Inside episodes we didn't get? Because I might have to move to Antigua, if so. Not that I would mind that. It's COLD in NYC.

Best guess without going back to count... 60%.
hehehehe
speaking of The Inside, i was watching Desperate Housewives last night and kept saying to myself "i know him!" regarding the cute, new doctor Susan is going after. then it hit me. it's none other than Jay Harrington!
