Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
The more I see you Tim, the more I'm convinced you were in Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been. Of course, I haven't seen it for a while. I think it's a glasses thing.

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
But he doesn't pay nearly enough attention to you, Allyson.
I'm glad he knows that. The next step is to fix the problem. I have to drop something in the mailbox. You can start by opening the gate.

Tim! Pretty cast you have there.
I had a whole email almost composed in my head to you about the connection between Dickens and serial television and how you are the Dickens of the TV world. And then I realized I'm too immersed in esoteric grad school bullshit and you're a busy man without time to slog through my ramblings.
It was all flattering and shit. But no beagles.

It really is a pretty cast. I hadn't really realised until I saw them all together.

Kat! Thanks. I'd never ever call myself the Dickens of anything, but I've used that same analogy -- that at it's best serial TV stories are us trying to do what Dickens did.

What is even happening?
Is Amy in that cast picture, and I'm just missing her?

Amy's not a regular. There were several not-regulars not-pictured.

Thanks, Tim.

Is Peter Ligouri the same person who said Drive was a testament to your illness?
I always wanted 'testament to my illness' as a title for this thread.

I've used that analogy too! Somewhere. I've always loved the idea of people waiting at the docks for the next installment...oh shit, I didn't use the Dickens thing for serial TV.
I used it for Harry Potter.
