Head tactical guy. Or maybe that is just wishful thinking. I can't stand that character.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

He is a little on the stereotypical side. I mean, I know there's traditionally tactical/negotatior issues but I wish he had something more than just that going for him. I mean, make him sing showtunes or something.
I'm pretty sure that this was written before Tim started working on the show. (At least, I would hope so. I know they said they were behind but...wowza.) But I'm still looking forward to seeing the who/how/why of the death. Hopefully, the first of many.

Showtunes, a gay lover, ballroom dancing... Something to make him a little less of a cartoon character is desperately needed. He makes negotiator chick seem well rounded. Or kill them both. That works too.

I think maybe computer chick is going to get out from behind her computer... for the first and last time. Or maybe, since Tim hasn't been there long, they'll do the stereotypical thing and add a character to kill.
I have no idea why I whitefonted, because it's a complete guess. I have absolutely no idea what they're going to do.

Under the heading of "Some People Juggle Geese," MSN TV has named Rosemarie DeWitt as one of the Fall TV Hotties. My incredulity stems less from RDW herself and more from their explanation:
Even in the midst of tense negotiations on "Standoff," Rosemarie DeWitt manages to stay cool, all while getting in some playful teasing with co-star Ron Livingston.

Happy Birthday, Kristen!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Sorry, it looks like I misinterpreted Fox's promo for Standoff.
Even though they flash SOMEONE DIES on the screen, it was meant to be hypothetical.
Darn.

Who? moi??
Don't worry Tom, Tim will take care of that.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Sorry, it looks like I misinterpreted Fox's promo for Standoff.
They do that all the time over here. The promo is big and ominous and makes it sound like a series regular is about to head off for the Big Sleep but in the end it is a Redshirt who bites the big one.

Will Tim have lead-killing discretion based on the consulting producer title? I thought that sort of thing tended to be a showrunner (or network) decision...
