Speaking of Ponyboy... except not really... I'm intrigued by Alien Nation because I think Tim likes outsiders the way Whedon likes outcasts. So that seems like a good fit.
And talking about 70s cop shows makes me wonder why G vs E still isn't out on DVD. Harrumph.
I caught an episode of that show once and was entertained. It seemed fun.

oh, how I loved that show. it has one of my top TV moments ever, when McNeil (played by Richard Brooks) has been trapped in a room with a heated floor. He's running/dancing up and down singing "ain't nothin' gonna break-a my stride, nobody gonna slow me down, oh no! I got to keep on mo-vin'"
G vs E
I never got to see enough of that.
According to Fox Tim has moved up to an Executive Producer on Dollhouse.
You know that's good. I've come to the conclusion that Tim is a much better feminist than a certain other talented writer/producer/showrunner. Because Tim did not take a friggin women's studies class decades ago, and decide he did not need to learn anything more about feminism since.
Is Tim a feminist? I've no idea. His episodes of Dollhouse season one skirted around (i.e. completely avoided) that aspect of the show. Which worked quite well, really.
The two showrunners for season one have left Dollhouse. I'm hopefully it will be better.
I don't know what he would call himself, but I'm pretty sure he accepts that women are human beings, that women are often not treated as human beings and that this is a serious problem. And I think I trust him more with women characters than a lot of writers who make louder claims on the subject.
I dunno, I'm going to go with Joss on that one. I might not agree with him on everything, but he's actively donated towards and considers his output from a feminist POV.
Being closer to the earth, my opinion on the subject is a bit different.
