We were supposed to originally make eight episodes, and we turned it into nine, because we'd written too much and shot too much, and still had to cut out a lot. ![]() I hope we'll be able to put out a DVD with all the incredible stuff we weren't able to put in the show. It was just, “How about we shoot a few fewer days per script?”Īndy Daly: To tell you the truth, we went into production having written too much.
