Oh sure, NOW she tells me!

lol

I have the "flipping the bird" picture too, but oddly never even thought of bringing it to Dragon Con or Archon this year.... It's framed and hanging up, so I usually forget about getting more signatures on it.

Anyway, I was happy to do it. Andreas couldn't have been nicer, or more charming, so I wouldn't have minded having fifty more things for him to sign...

Hey, OmahaStar!

Jan says I should mention that it's _me_ to whom you have to be eternally grateful.... (Of course I'm referring to Andreas's autograph on your script pages.)

So...start bowing and scraping...NOW!

Nice to finally 'meet' you!

Cheers,

Aisling

Aisling! It's great to meet you! Yep, Jan's spoken quite highly of you ... this is a rare thing; when Jan speaks highly of someone, the universe takes note.

Thank you so much for getting them signed! You have no idea how hard it was to narrow down exactly what to have signed ... Of course, I don't have anywhere near the number of scripts Jan has. lol ... I was sorely tempted to send the "big" picture ... I have an 11x14 size pic of the cast at the end of year 4, flipping off the camera, bought directly from Jason ... but I didn't want to have you carrying around something that big (although again, I was tempted!) lol.

Thanks again! I can't wait to see em.

**bows and scrapes**

All I can say is...

Oh my gods, now I have _another_ place in which to waste time when I should be coding! :-p

Now I do. Didn't recognize you at first without the ISN monicker.

So can you tell us something about the Mumy/David script?
What's the story? Is it good?

Please spoil me!

Seriously, (and not to sound braggy, I hope) I was *so* lucky to find the crewmember I did and buy his collection. He had all but about 7 of the episodes and even had the unproduced Crusade scripts and the unproduced 5th season script written by Bill Mumy and Peter David. It's just been fascinating to read them all.

The scripts, the show, the scripts, the videos, the scripts, the show, the DVDs, the scripts, the show ...actually just about everything except the action figures. Oh, and did I mention that I really like the scripts a lot?

So. If any of you ever see a legal (ei: not copied) version of #414 - Moments of Transition or #520 Wheel of Fire (filmed as The Alien Inside) *PLEASE* drop me an email! Thanks!

Very cool guys, always love seeing or hearing more about stuff that got passed over for one reason or another.

It's really fascinating, how everything came together to make the show as good as it was. I'd learned a lot from reading the scripts. Joe's really detailed, but the actors really brought out nuances that weren't apparent to this non-actor sort, that's for sure.

Another cool thing was seeing some producer's/director's cuts of some of the episodes. These are the starting point of the editing process and don't have CGI or even very much music. Quite a number of scenes are a touch longer than what we see, but I think the finished product was best. The one for 'A Late Delivery from Avalon' actually had music on it that never made it to the episode. IIRC, Joe'd decided that he wanted more of a Celtic sound.

It was really a team effort and every time I run across anybody who worked on the show I make sure to thank them.

Great!

The forums are the First One of several improvements it seems...
Thanks to DougO for the archive and the new boards.


OmahaStar: Thanks for posting that. I've been very curious about what was the extra stuff in the script.


Discussing one of those spoilers I'll say that one of them really isn't, but I'll mark it as such just in case.

SPOILER:



(select text below if needed for legibility)




The series being an ISN production is hinted at before the pictures of the cast and crew show. IIRC they say "now something special for those that watched this ISN special presentation" right before. I always interpreted that as referring to the series as if it had been a miniseries shown in ISN.

End of Spoiler.
