This is kinda wierd. The last episode (13) of Tim Minears 2005 series, "The Inside" recently showed up when the cancelled series (only 8 episodes were shown by Fox last Summer)was run (all 13 episodes) in Britain. The 13th episode would have appeared in September, 2005. In that episode, Adam Baldwin (who plays an ex-Marine FBI agent) asks one of the other agents what he did on the weekend. The agent says he and his wife went to a movie, a "Space western". Adam asks how he liked it, and the agent said, "it was good."

In another scene of this episode, a character says, "where are you, little girl."

So Tim got two plugs into the episode of his show that would have been broadcast (had Fox not cancelled the series) right about September 30th.

What a coincidence....

Tim Minear is a demi-God and should be worshipped!



Nathan doesn't know it yet, but I am his one true love! Is that weird?

Never saw the show but the name rings a little bell. Do you know what channel it was run on?

Neither wierd nor a coincidence. Both Tim Minear and Jane Espenson (the writer of this episode) worked on Firefly. It was an intentional shout-out to FF/Serenity by the Firefly vets.

I believe it was ITV2. But it's gone now, unless they repeat it. That episode was written by Tim. The show was talked about here because Tim was the show runner, and Adam was one of the stars. It was pretty decent, sort of a "Silence of the Lambs", set in LA. That last episode was about cannibalism. If the show had lasted, I expect we would have eventually seen reavers and space monkeys. LA is that kind of place.

I imagine there will be a CD set before too long. Well, now Tim is free to work on the first sequel to Serenity. Joss has mentioned that Tim was the only one he would trust it with.

And, back when it was stateside, what network was it on?

Yeah. That one.
