WONDERFALLS TRAVIS TV
There was Mimi who is so smart it’s crazy and with whom I had worked my very first year in TV when she was on Party Of Five and I was on the Jennifer Love Hewitt spin off Time of Your Life. There was Stacy who had been Jim’s assistant when I met Shonda and Jim that first time and she was all excited about her recent promotion to writer and also kind of intimidated and quiet and adorable. There were Harry and Gab who were sci-fi junkies and all married and happy and shiny and funny too.
There was Kip, who was really funny and had chickens at his home in West LA. In the room, there was the brilliant Jim Parriott, who also was at that initial interview and seemed deeply disturbed by our AI rantings.

I myself had come from a sweet little show called Wonderfalls that Fox killed after airing only three episodes. Okay, here’s what I remember: I remember that we all met, this bedraggled group of writers, for the most part all coming from other recently cancelled shows. Seriously, do you know how long ago season one was? And my brain is not what it once was. Shonda just told me we’re blogging season one as they repeat this summer.
