Holidays and Filming

Most of the cast goes on holiday tomorrow. A'ron got a bit part in another project, so he's taking off to do filming on that project. Usually I am very anal when it comes to my cast and scheduling other projects, but A'ron doesn't have much of a presence this season. Well, he does, but it's mostly unseen. So we finished filming his scenes and I think he's leaving tomorrow.

While the cast is on holiday, we're going to film some of "The ? Show", mostly the celebrity interviews and the interviews with different stores. I'm excited since one of the guests wants to do a special "project" during the taping of the show. I'm sure it will get great ratings.

Pahala Shore officially premired today. It's a bit early due to the holidays of the cast, but I'm very proud of the finished product. The writers don't have an holiday, so they're cranking out scripts of the rest of the episodes and tweaking storylines and personalities of the characters. Also we're trying to develop another character to be added to the show. We recently added Montana who was going to have a one season role, but we decided to extend the role...for how long, that's the question that every cast member wants to know (it makes for excellant work ethics since they don't know if thier character will be snuffed out or not). We renew contracts each season (well-mid season just in case a cast member declines the contract and we have to write them out of the show). Another character we thought would be a simple two episode role was Donna, but she definately belongs in the Pahala Shore set. Right now she doesn't have a storyline, mostly a supporting role, but a very important supporting role. We're thinking about giving her a significant storyline in the near future...well a few seasons from now. We do know that one character will be leaving the show soon, followed by the temporary exit of another character, followed closely by the exit of yet another character. Ahh, I love keeping the cast on thier toes.
