En-ver Joke-Eye. His mum emailed me when he was first cast explaining this, as nobody could figure out how to pronounce it on Whedonesque. Stupidly the first time I met him - at a bar - a told him this story. It seemed cute in my head, but looking back it was probably a bit weird to say "I've spoken to your mum!". To add humour his mum then phoned him.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Sounds to me like he would be PERFECT on "Leverage"...
OMG Yes!!!

Wow, I really loved this episode. Well done, Tim!
I suppose I should say that in Minearverse. Or just ask Allyson to pass it on. Allyson, would you tell Tim that I thought his episode rocked?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
best episode so far. But they should have had Eliza work out the bad guy character- then the two good actors could have copied her performance.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
then the two good actors could have copied her performance.
I'm glad they left the responsibility for that in the hands of a strong actor. A better trickle-down effect was had. I admit I didn't quite get that she'd become the killer until it was spelt out for me, but I'd rather it that way than having everyone copy her opaque performance.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I agree Tiggy. It's looking like this is a show to highlight Victors chops and not Echo. He is out acting her, hands down. The club scene was priceless. The killer scenes were spooky. I hope he gets an Emmy nod. But I guess the show needs to survive first.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I hope he gets an Emmy nod.
Does that even seem remotely likely?
He'll get more work, though.

Always Anti-fascist!
Plenty of wonderful actors never get Emmys so that they can keep nominating Shatner for "Boston Legal" and stuff.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Fox will air all 13 episodes...but they won't make the decision about the back 9 until then. Thankfully, Joss is providing some semblance of closure in episode 13 and not being totally evil.
