Ellis playing on the Internet and posting random stuff is 2/7ths of my daily entertainment. I hope he never stops.
And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

Warren Ellis claims to have planned out several years of arcs for Global Frequency, and that didn't get past pilot.
I think you mean John Rogers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, Warren did write twelve issues of the comic.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I have a question. In an earlier linked interview about The Inside, it said that the finale (or at least some unaired episode) implied that one of the members of the team was a serial killer. I didn't get that from "Skin and Bone." Did I miss something?

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
I think that's about Thief of Hearts.

Oh, I know, but Rogers was the one who mentioned planning a five-year story. As far as I know, Ellis didn't talk about it like he was actively involved with that kind of planning.

Ah, yeah, that makes sense. That crazy Web.

Greenwalt news from Variety:
"Angel" co-creator David Greenwalt has nabbed a deal for "Kidnapped," inking with Sony Pictures Television to come aboard as showrunner and exec producer of the NBC fall drama.
Michael Dinner-helmed "Kidnapped," which stars Jeremy Sisto and Dana Delany, snagged an unusually early greenlight from the Peacock last month. Net has ordered 13 episodes of the skein created by Jason Smilovic.
Greenwalt will work closely with Smilovic, who exec produced the "Kidnapped" pilot along with Dinner and Sarah Timberman and Carl Beverly of Sony-based 25 C Prods.
As part of his deal to join "Kidnapped," Greenwalt has landed a premium blind script commitment from Sony for future development.
"Kidnapped" features Sisto as a kidnapping expert who works outside the legal system to retrieve those who've been snatched. Each season of the show will feature a different victim.
In addition to co-creating "Angel" with Joss Whedon, Greenwalt -- repped by Kaplan-Stahler-Gumer-Braun -- was an original writer-producer on Whedon's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."
More recently, Greenwalt developed Showtime pilot "The Bastard" and was showrunner for the UPN drama "Jake 2.0" and ABC's "Miracles." He's currently working as a consulting producer for Sci Fi Channel's upcoming skein "Eureka."

Hooray for David.

I was super excited, at first, thinking it was the series that Gale Harold is in. But then I remembered that he's in the other pilot about searching for someone from a powerful family that gets kidnapped.
