Here's something interesting about American Revelation. When I arrived in Colorado, John was trying to come up with ideas for his script. He had been having a lot of talks with a guy who works at Focus who had been giving him a lot of ideas to write about (noteably this man is the one who suggested the families last name be "Washington" because 93% of people with that last name are black). Anyway, John knew sort of where he wanted the story to go... so we had a big group brainstorm. Here's an image I took of the initial white board that is used whenever the writers have an episode brainstorming session:



As you can see, several things have changed... but a lot has stayed the same. I originally brought back an outline John wrote of the episode that I was intending to put on the Soda Fountain... unfortunately I think I threw out the outline when I returned home Sad

Anyway, just thought you all might be interested in seeing that.

From the look of the storyboard, it sounds really boring.

Thanks for posting that, Shadowpaw!

I personally enjoyed it a lot. I don't know if it's just because I love history or what. I love the new things done to the imagination station.

I'm not a great fan of history, but Odyssey have made quite a lot of it more intresting.

Oink, when was the last time you heard someone say oink?!

It made the episode get half a star less.

Sorry, another correction. The last history episode was actually 434: BTV: Redeeming the Season (main story was a history story instead of the regular Bible story) unless you count 439: BTV: Grace which didn't really have much history that I can remember....

i never count B-TV's as history or bible ep's. B-TV are just too wacky. The history's just plain funny.
