Tim, amending Whedonesque now. Uh, sorry.
The Minearverse 5: Closer to the Earth, Further from the Ax
[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, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
Amending it to lie about my advanced age, I hope?
So, like, I lost a ton of weight after the last Expo DVD, and this year they didn't even tape it. Also a very nice woman came up to me afterward and expressed her concern because I was "so thin."
That's very exciting! Not your apparent sickly apprearance or advanced age, the other thing.
Can we have new photos done, now?
Tim - true, this: I think you and Joss are looking gaunt recently. That's a back handed compliment, also.
I am actually very excited about Drive getting picked up. I know. I know. Geek. But, seriously. Is it next year yet?
You needn't have added the "likely," Kevin. Network called. Studio called. It's all true.
Okay, will fix. I'm just cautious. And - frankly - drunk and at 2am and panicking about getting up for work.
By the way, the network is totally behind this. The enthusiasm and support has been hard and long term. From the studio as well. The true believers never gave up and that's why we went from a soft "pass" to a starting pistol.
Great to hear, Tim. Frankly, I was talking about this earlier to somebody -- in fact, whining, and said "This is the best Tim Minear pilot in terms of commercial success".
I stand behind that.
I run a viral marketing company, but I gotta seperate out and say there's a lot of ways to run with this. There's a very broad demographic here, and I'm *NOT* thinking "how do they appeal to people here?", which I was with Wonderfalls.
He doesn't look gaunt. He's lovely. Shut up.
