December 14, 2015: The script elves have forsaken me!

“Well, it’s Christmas.  They’re a little busy.” – Dark Matter script coordinator Alison Hepburn.


So…fine.  I’ll just write the script myself.  After I hammer out this outline.  Which is taking a little longer than I was hoping.  As it turns out, I have learned from experience that I do some of my best writing while:



I’m driving.
In the shower.
My significant other is talking to me over dinner.

And I find it VERY difficult to write while:



I’m on set.

I’m sure that fifth act will work itself out.  They inevitably do.  I just hope it does so in a timely fashion.

Back in Gen. Pop. today with the new girl!  And a few of our Raza regulars.  Plenty on display today including a skirmish, other prisoners, and the delicious Hyperion-8 cuisine:

And while director Amanda Tapping shoots Episode 201, director Bruce McDonald preps Episode 202.  This afternoon, we sat down to go over our second episode script with all of its clues, callbacks, and layers upon layers upon layers.

New hat for Bubba.


Right.  Where was I?  Oh yeah, tomorrow on set, it’s Code Black!  While, back at the office, I’ll be sitting down with X to talk about the show and his character, Devon.  And then, it’s sushi dinner with Akemi and Maku-chan (aka Marc Bendavid).


Okay, back to that outline…
