Thanks!
I think the new format will be a work in process for a couple of seasons...there's a ton that we want to do, but time time time! I think in the long run the Celeb Shoot-out can be a big deal...I wanted to make sure we "put the stake in the ground." My long-term goal (always assuming that ever-precious renewal) is to "build" each of the main feature stories specifically for the shows. Turns out there's a LOT of moving parts...LOL!
I've tried a bunch of new stuff this season...some bits will inevitably work better than others, but I think you've got to feel your way along (I suppose if we had the budget of, say, AVATAR it would be a bit easier). I think the weekly traing seg on DRTV, which Marshal has been shepherding to completion, is going to be a major hit.
It's like working a jigsaw puzzle without knowing what the final picture looks like...
Thank you, all...
