"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Not to be pedantic, but I'm not sure this was Fox's doing. I think I remember reading that the early producers just axed the idea of offing the main character, not necessarily MF. (Unless I'm making that up).

Jack Sheppard was definitely supposed to die in the first draft, but the version I heard was that the network intervened to save the character while Michael Keaton was still under consideration for the role. Keaton said in an interview that when he heard it was becoming a lead on an hour-long weekly drama, he passed (could be true, could be face-saving). Matthew Fox was brought in to read a rewritten pilot script that featured his character more or less the same as the aired version.

I skimmed, but echoing Kat's thanks for the Teacher Day wishes. Means a lot.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Teachers rock!

TAR logistics question: Does the show reserve a ticket on every possible flight for a camera person, or when someone chooses stand-by do there have to be 3 tickets available for a team to go?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

She's at a taping of the Ellen Show!

Jason's cousin drove down from San Luis Obispo with her best friend to see a taping of Ellen yesterday! They were with the riff raff out back but had a great time anyway. We watched today and there was one shot that was just the two of them clapping, way cool. They didn't get home until 7:30 by the way.

TAR:

Four, actually - sound guy, cameraman, and the team. I don't know of any situations where that kept people off a flight, but there was a case where a team was trying to get on a train in India and had to get off because they couldn't fit the crew on the same car.

I loved that he realized that, brenda.

I was also highly amused by his extreme enunciation at times.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Veronica Mars:

...

Wow.

I'm pretty much maxed out in HSQ. GAH. Love this show.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

TAR: I can't believe that U&J and M&G didn't learn anything from last weeks flight experience! They did exactly what the other teams did and didn't check for flights arriving earlier! AAAAGH!

And I could only catch part of Veronica. So now I'm very confused.

That killed me, quester. I about washed my hands of both of them.
