A put pilot is an agreement between a network and a studio, where the network will incur substantial penalties if the pilot episode is not aired. This is a virtual guarantee a pilot will be picked up. (Wikipedia)
Congrats, Tim!
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

[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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Cool! I just found out about Miracle at Sci Fi Wire (at Scifi.com): [link]
Its source is the article in The Hollywood Reporter, so probably no new info here....

Yay! New Tim! (but the Hollywood Reporter forgot to mention his work on Buffy...)

Yay! New Tim!
"It feels a fresh clean beginning of something."
At least it's on a fresh new network. I hope it's the beginning of more than one season.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Yay Tim! Yay ABC! The concept sounds great.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Looks fantastic, Tim. Congrats!

forgive me, but you look quite handsome in that picture attached to the article!
I'm stoked about the new show.
