Poopie-heads.

 

You know, it really is extraordinary how this season is playing out. The fabulous Spencer has won everything and everyone is a bit frustrated to say the least. Even "Death-G" can't pretend he likes losing after this many in a row. And I keep shaking my head every Wednesday when I get the results. It's then up to me to spend the afternoon writing a unique plot around the same friggin' outcome week after week. LOL. In all honesty, it's some of the most challenging and creative deadlines I've ever had to meet. I get handed all the variables on Wednesday, and be shooting on Thursday is very fun.

 

The Screening Room was being used by Mr. Moonves (no kidding) last Thursday and we had to shoot on Friday which is a bit nerve-racking for me. No room for editing problems with a turnaround of 36 hours. My crashing computer held-up with only 1 blue-screen of death and I was able to pull it off. I've also gotten really, really fast at putting these together now. As has Tyson at putting together the characters...

 

...but what the hell is this? Did he screw up? Did Ty go too fast!?!?!   Heh. For Gary's dream sequence I had everyone turn into Gary...sort of. It's this bizarro world where everyone still sounds the same, but looks like Gary dressed up like them. Oh with their hair too. LOL. It's a big mish-mash or surrealism. What's cool is the first shot of the dream "Dewey" and "Spencer" move like Gary...

 

 

 

 

...yet after the song when they speak? They instantly become the real Dewey and Spencer, just with beards. LOL. I had a blast with this. It's like playing with a mix and match book.   And of course the last shot. An homage the Sopranos. Love it or hate it, it will never be forgotten. This was also my way of implying that I believe the whole episode may have been a dream...

 

...but two months later I still can't stick to one theory. I still say that it seemed out of place with the last 9 episodes as if it was idea Chase had for years that he tacked on disregarding where the final season was leading. But it's still the best series I've ever seen.   Anyway, second finalist round next week! I'm actually quite excited to see who I'm gonna be writing for!   Adam
