I believe they have to get a difficult to obtain waiver to put the credit at the end. I don't think the general rule has changed.

She's going to be part of the show's upcoming Comic Con panel, if that's any kind of indication.

(NBC/)Universal is a co-producer along with Sony. But I believe Sony has a greater stake, or they're the one who handle most of the business stuff. Or something. It's confusing, basically.

It wouldn't be a TV Club comment section if it didn't feature someone disregarding someone else's opinion because of their love of Girls.

It airs in Canada on Sundays, and then I think Syfy airs it the next Friday. Or at least that's how it worked for the finale. So everyone should be on the same episode at least.

Hulu's exclusivity deal for old episodes makes a deal with another streaming service virtually impossible.

Well, obviously FOX is better able to determine the order the episodes can be best appreciated in better than the show's creators could.

After he left Alias, the greatest involvement he had in a show was Fringe Season 1. He wasn't showrunner, but he was a member of the writing staff, basically. He pretty much completely bailed after the planning stages of Season 2, though.

I've heard "basis in scientific fact" was from very early season 1, and was said to appease an executive who was frightened by the craziness of the show.

I think the general rule in TV finales is if the a regular could conceivably survive into next season's premier, they will. Barring contract disputes, producer indecision, and such.

They've said they'll be done at some point, but no date yet.

I'm pretty sure they're keeping TV Club Classic, at least into 2015.

I found this, from an interview with Hartnett:

You got a source for it being an anthology? I believe someone said that here before, but when asked where they heard it they couldn't remember. My Googling skills can't find anything.

From the interview posted above:

My assumption/hope is that from the perspective of the movies SHIELD is dead, and this new SHIELD (which consists of what, eight people?) is a show only thing. Maybe movie characters can guest occasionally, but it's not a big enough deal they'd have to mention it in the next film.

I really hope that Coulson rebuilding S.H.I.E.L.D. means that the show will distance itself from the movies and stop relying on them for plot advancement.

The CGI stuff isn't great, but the cinematography and fight choreography put this show to shame.

I thought they were going to go conservation of energy = life after death and was impressed that they didn't.

They're kind of different situations because Angel's cheapness worked to its advantage.
