Tim, I'm so sorry to hear the news. I was enjoying the heck out of this show and wanted to see so much more. I'll always speak kindly of you, ask any of my coworkers that I pimped Drive to.

Particularly if they're subtracting DVR watchers

I don't understand this. Yes, I have a TiVo and it's great for when I'm not home, but I watch a lot of my shows live. I TiVo as much to have the episodes for rewatch as to watch them live.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

What JZ said. Again. I really need that t-shirt.

I hardly warrant it, but...okay (blushing). And at the next F2F you can wear that, and I'll wear my "What scrappy said" t-shirt, and possibly Robin will wear a "What Betsy said" t-shirt, and it can go all the way round to whoever has the spiciest brains of all, and that person will wear a t-shirt that says either "HELLS YEAH WHAT I SAY" or "Seriously, y'all, @@."

"Don' be e-scared"

So my office staff and and I spent our commiseration today watching DVDs of The Inside. Well, hell! That show was GOOD! And in light of recent events, seems like one of my long running shows.

Just got the news when I finished music spotting episode six -- hilariously, a HUGE cliff hanger. But I knew this was coming the day after the aborted launch.

Next time, I think fall might be a better time of year to try and convince people you have a show. This mid or late season thing, not so much.

If anyone didn't think Fillion was the most charismatic leading man around, I think we might have disabused them of that notion. God damn he's good.

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

I work for the company that produces Dancing, so I'm a bit protective of it. (Even if I didn't know and like the people involved, the money it makes does partly determine my annual bonus.) Can we dump on American Idol instead?

Maybe if it hadn't killed THE INSIDE too. Sorry can't do it.

Mucho sympathies for those that were directly involved (and woes for the rest of us). Dammit.

The status is NOT quo.

I hardly warrant it, but...okay (blushing). And at the next F2F you can wear that, and I'll wear my "What scrappy said" t-shirt, and possibly Robin will wear a "What Betsy said" t-shirt, and it can go all the way round to whoever has the spiciest brains of all, and that person will wear a t-shirt that says either "HELLS YEAH WHAT I SAY" or "Seriously, y'all, @@."

Hee.

And the back of my t-shirt will say, "Don't even think about listening to me. I used up my braincells learnin' the chillens."

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

Maybe I can make a popup book with what is supposed to happen next, Tim.

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

I TiVo as much to have the episodes for rewatch as to watch them live.

Yeah, but you forward through commercials, so you don't count to advertisers.

Next time, I think fall might be a better time of year to try and convince people you have a show. This mid or late season thing, not so much.

Yeah, doesn't seem to be working. Do you have to stay with Fox? Because of the contract?
