The chrysalis machine came originally from Epsilon 3, with the
|
|
rest of the equipment.

Bruce wanted to do the show, we said sure. That's kind of it....

Kwicker...no, in the original episode, the suit was always blue.

We sometimes make mistakes, but we ain't nearly THAT stupid.

There's a chance that the rights situation may work itself out by
|
|
mid-Summer on Grimjack; if so, I might be able to peel off some time in
|
|
the Fall/Christmas hiatus period to work on it.

The stabalizer fell off in two pieces; the outer part or shell on
|
|
the white star, the other half later that was clipped to his belt.

Linda: at least one out of those three will come into play again
|

this season.

This is Kung Fu's last season, yes.

Mike: the Disney situation is unique to Disney; they are all
|
|
engulfing, totally dictatorial, and everything that comes out of there is
|
|
incestuous as hell. There's a reason most anybody who's worked for them
|
|
refers to the place as Mauschwitz....
|
|
|
|
RE: Space A&B...yes, the word is it's been canceled. It's
|
|
amazing to look at the SF shows that have come and gone just in the time
|
|
that B5 has been around: S:A&B, Space Rangers, VR5, SeaQuest, Earth 2,
|
|
and on.

"WB wanted some product placement using stuffed animals...."

Never happened. Jerry is...embroidering.

Space Rangers came on at the same time as B5.

The energy being that got Sheridan in "Knives" had no relation to
|
|
anything in the ongoing story; it just existed outside our normal
|
|
universe, and got in and out via the rift (which also served to remind us
|
|
that it was still there).

PS, it's one thing, I think, to spend 2 hours in a movie theater
|
|
and get a downer ending...another to invest 5 years of your life and then
|
|
it all goes to hell. I think they'd crucify me for that. And I think
|
|
they'd be right.

The new edition is, basically, an entirely new book. One of the
|
|
reasons it took me 3 years to get the damned thing in was that I'm a
|
|
perfectionist, and couldn't just update the pay info, I had to rewrite
|
|
the thing from stem to stern (I think only the playwriting chapter is
|
|
more or less the same), updating all the information, tossing aside
|
|
suggestinos (suggestions) that were no longer appropriate in this market,
|
|
adding new info about changes in the fields, adding new chapters on
|
|
animation, computers, and the like...it's a whole different book now.

I'm often tempted to create Zathras' brother, Mathras, or
|
|
somesuch, if only for the look of terror in their eyes when he says, of
|
|
Zathras, "Ah, yes...Zathras...was the quiet one in the family...."
|
|
|
|
Who knows, it might be something I might do someday....
