The show might be on its way out, but CNN has a nice article on it with quotes from Tim Minear.

So timely of them to come out with this after it's been cancelled... Oh well, it's not like F*X actually gave the critics any time to get to know the show.

My best friend, who I had gotten to watch TI, was really ticked off about the cancellation. Her exact words - "How can they cancel it so soon? I'm just starting to get to know the characters."

It's FOX. It's what they DO.

To stress, the show is still actually on Fox each Wednesday - they just won't be making a second series.

Yes, but Tim hinted that he thought there would be 6 unaired episodes on the dvd. That adds up to us actually getting the two episodes tonight and the one next Wednesday and then no more.

So, like Tim said, watch it while you can...

F*X has already been advertising its own reality dancing show. They haven't specified a starting date or time yet, but it will probably be what replaces TI (makes sense, given abc's dancing show doing so well in this timeslot). Oh joy, another intelligent show replaced by even more reality garbage.

Just finished the first installment on tonight's double feature and darn it if this show doesn't get better with each episode. Adam Baldwin's performace was particularly good with his beverage of choice and reaction to the listening material.

Heh, yeah. Danny's little one-scene emotional breakdown (about which only Mel seemed to almost-care) was my laugh-out-loud moment this ep. That was so utterly Jayne.

And Paul earlier, with the "not so much."

Not to mention that he and Spike both like the onion flower.

But has anyone watched the second episode yet? I don't want to spoil it so I'll just say OMG!

Fox must've seen this episode and said "This is a great show! Even better than we thought! We must cancel it now!"

At the beginning I thought the series was fairly good but I wasn't drawn in yet. After tonight's first one I was like "well good we're streching out a bit getting to know the characters better." Especially with Adam's girl-drink and the other things you guys mentioned.

But then I watched the second one. Needless to say I'll be watching those DVD's when they come out.

Those two episodes were absolutely amazing. I was literally edge of my seat.

Oh, and the part where Adam mentions the flowering onion? Definite squeeing. And then rewinding. And more squeeing.

God, I wish Fox would have given this show a chance. It's obviously getting better and better each week.


My show is too pretty to die.

Hey, when's The Inside: The Movie coming out, eh?

I completely forgot that there was an episode at 8, but the one at 9 was fantastic. And if next week's is as it looks from the previews (which can be misleading). . . OMG!

Can anyone tell me a short and sweet version of the plot of the 8 pm episode?
