If Tim's channeling Deborah Kerr, I don't want to know who Kristen's channeling. Sympathies to you both, though. I'm bummed that the show didn't do better, because I really expected that it would.
Saffron: You won't tell anyone about me breaking down? Mal: I won't. Saffron: Then I won't tell anyone how easily I got your gun out of your holster. Mal: I'll take that as a kindness.

[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.

"Don' be e-scared"
"Drive Runs Out Of Gas"???? Shee-it. Now if I had a pun-master like that on staff, maybe we'd still be on.

I don't have to stay with Fox, no. My deal is with 20th, not the network.

It just occurred to me that maybe why Joss hasn't come back to television (and gone to comics and hopes of movies) is that he realized he got really, really lucky with a show and a spinoff that went as long as they did.
Tim, Nathan ROCKED, especially when his History of Violence side came out (and like Viggo's character, with a huge well of both rage and compassion buried there). I was hoping to see a bit more. FUCKING A!

I'm so sorry, Tim. I wish the world would appreciate your genius and reward you with fabulous ratings.

The evil is this way?
Thanks for all the tea and sympathy. Years from now, when you speak of this, and you will -- be kind.
Strange irony that the last line in the last episode: "Not this time."

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

Well, it wasn't the last line. But it was a line.

Because I haven't said it yet, many condolences to Tim, Kristen, cast and crew. And also, What JZ Said.
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.
Wrod. But then again, I was already on that bus.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Now if I had a pun-master like that on staff, maybe we'd still be on.
Hire me! Hire me! I'm NEARLY as good as the Variety pun master.
Fillion factor? I didn't see a single review criticizing him. Or any bad comments online about him in Drive. And, you know, I read a lot of reactions. He put Drive in high gear.
(See?!)

What is even happening?
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. I'm thinking that must have been some of the reason for the ratings. It was a really weird time for a launch. Most of the other shows were already back from hiatus. People are already watching what they watch. TV watching is largely a habit.
Tim, Scott wants me to ask you how a network can make a decision like this in just two weeks -- four hours or not, it hardly seems the audience had time to find it. I know he was serious with the question, because his wording was a lot more blue than mine is.
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.
He is. And he had that Big Block of Concrete factor. He has chemistry with everything. I was thinking about that after Allyson posted about the non-romantic relationship developing between Alex and Corinna. She was totally right, but I keep forgetting about Mrs. Tully while watching, because Nathan is so charismatic.
