[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.

What is even happening?

Thanks to jengod, E's Kristin has a pimptastic Drive piece up, here: [link]

Dear Second Coming,

I want to read the letter referred to in her fifth of sixth reasons to watch Drive.

5. The Producer: Folks, isn't it about time we gave Tim Minear the hit show he so rightly deserves? He wrote many of Angel's greatest episodes, he executive produced Wonderfalls and Firefly, and he's generally considered to be the second coming of Joss Whedon. He also sent out just about the funniest show-promo letter to the press ever, which makes me heart him all the more.

I can't believe that they didn't mention his work on Buffy!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I wanna waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatch.

And read that letter, too.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Whoa mama, this quote from that link has me wondering a lot at what's coming, and PSYCHED!, and I'll white font because even if Tim said it, it is potentially spoilery if you've seen the movie referenced: Producer Tim Minear compares Alex Tully to Viggo Mortensen's character in A History of Violence

Yeah, I haven't seen that movie yet, but it puts Nathan's comment at WonderCon ("Let's just say he wasn't always a landscaper...") into perspective.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Suddenly, even more interested. I really liked that movie.

Do so. Even if Cronenberg's not your usual cup o'poison, it's a fascinating piece of work, and far less "squishy" than his more extreme stuff.

We just watched the first ep. It was fun! And not just because of the times I could exclaim, "Ooo, I was there when they filmed this bit!"

And Tim, if you're out there: the guy who plays Richard Patrakas is brilliant.

Tim is always out there. He's like the truth that way.

The status is NOT quo.

Strega, thank you for just posting that. You just reminded me to set my Tivo season pass.
