Hi,

I want to visualize data of different sources in timelion.  
Some sources have events each seconds, some are only generating data each 5 minutes.  
If I set the interval in timelion to 1 minute, I will not get a line for data which is gathered each 5 minutes. So I used .fit(nearest) and everything is fine

until:

I have no data in the time series, because the log producer failed for example.  
Then timelion is thowing following exception:

```
Timelion: Error: in cell #4: Cannot read property '1' of undefined

 Less Info
OK
Error: in cell #4: Cannot read property '1' of undefined

```

Any workaround available here?

Using Kibana 5.1.2

Thanks, Andreas
