>>  Thanks...yeah, we can finally put those pirated pins out of business, 
there's no way they can produce the same quality pins as you just got.

Joe,

Something I've always wondered. What are the actual prop pin made from. Often 
times you get a good quality pin and it just seems too heavy, it wants to sag 
on the fabric. I was curious as to what the prop designers used.

After all, it only has to *look* good on film.

      It's the same design and materials used in the ones being sold by the 
fan club.

Joe,

	<Cool...I want one.>

	Speaking of watches, have you seen Men In Black yet?  There's a quick 
shot of Will Smith putting on his official MiB wrist watch and I could swear 
it's a duplicate of that really cool pointed ended one you're wearing in the 
studio picture you've sometimes used for convention programs.  I THINK it's 
the infamous Rod Serling watch you posted about some time back, but I could be 
wrong.

      Yeah, same watch on all counts, it's the Hamilton Ventura.

Joe,

	You've definitely been hanging out with Harlan too long.<G>  Not that 
I'm disputing your statement, it just sounds a LOT like Harlan.

I may be missing something but I haven't seen any adds for the show in the 
paper or promo's(but I don't watch tv often)-where are they? -note I have 
cable or at least TNT now because of the show.

      There are ads all over the place...especially on TNT.  You'll see more 
as we get closer to air.

Fm: MARTIN ROTH

Hi Joe.

In perusing the list of Season 5 episodes, I noticed that while Day of the 
Dead was listed produced as 510, it seems that it is to be pushed back (for 
reasons unknown to us) to air as the 11th episode.

I also happened to notice that its scheduled air date, by an amazing 
coincidence, is April 1.

Any comment? <g>

Fm: J. MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI

      We shot it out of story-sequence to give us more time to prep 512, which 
was a big episode.  So it'll actually be aired as 513.

                                                                    jms


 [ Summary: "Did you know that the executives at Paramount didn't want 
   [the recent DS9 war to continue over six or so episodes]?  Here's 
   why, because they didn't sell to their affliates as an epidodic show.
   That would mean that the affliates would have to air them in order." ]

      Here's the stupid thing about the syndication worry: it's nonexistent. 
The stations invariably grab shows in production order unless something is 
specifified to the contrary on the inventory sheets.  Every so often, some of 
the animated shows I worked on years ago will show up...and they're *still* 
being played in correct order, and I doubt very much the station is trying to 
do so, it's just a matter of going in numerical order off the charts.  This is 
a concern that goes back to very early syndication that doesn't hold anymore.

                                                                    jms
