You know if you start answering all the questions addressed to you on the threaded board, the word is going to get around, and then you'll be inundated with questions. We fans like to be noticed, you know. :) Apparently Jorge has a goal of keeping the zeros out of his thread.

But do I have a question? Yes. Do you writers get to see the final version of each show before it airs? Or is that your first viewing too? I know the cast gets together on Wednesday evenings to watch the show with each other, and the person whose character is in focus that show hosts the rest. Any talk of the writers doing something similar? I think it would be great fun to watch it with your creative team, but not so much if you've already seen it, and maybe you all get enough of each other during the week.

yeah, i can see what you mean re: my no zeroes policy... i'm gonna wind up writing more for the fuselage than that actual show!

we are usually still at work when the show airs in the east coast - wetend to gather informally and watch at least some of the east coast feed in the office, depending on our workload. do we get enough of each other during the week... i hope not, writers on series tend to see more of each other than they do their own spouses!
