SN Notes

[out_there]

these are just random SN notes I took the last time we watched S1. I found them in the back of my book and figured I might as well type them up.


Random SN notes:

General:
- According to Jeremy, the first show of Sports Night was screen 2 months, 2 years and a week before the The Pilot.
- When doing a 15 second promo ten minutes before the show, both Dan and Casey are at the desk to record it, and then sit there for until the show starts.
- Ad breaks are either two or two and half minutes back
- Casey and Dan have a bar fridge in their office, between the couch and the glass wall.
- SN crew are on the 49th floor, and Rebecca works on the 37th floor.


Dan:
- Likes dry martinis at the Oak Bar
- Calls Casey "Case" twice over the two seasons
- Calls Natalie "Nat" during Mary Pat Shelby and the following episode. (Nicknames seem to be used only when very concerned about the person.)
- Stayed up 72 hours straight for a biochem exam which he aced.


Casey:
- On air voice is slightly higher than off-air
- Has a Wyoming University sweatshirt (Probably his alma mater)
- Climbs at his local gym, which has a Class 3 Mountain (Dana refers to it as the "Big Apple Health and Racket Club" but I don't know if that's mockery, or supposed to be the actual name.)


Natalie:
- Has a Journalism degree from Northwestern


Jeremy:
- Mentions back home in Boston
- Is a "research analyst with a degree in Applied Mathematics"
- Has a deaf sister, Louise, who's a sophomore at University of Massachusetts - Amherst.


Dana:
- Wears glasses, and has been seen with two different pairs (one with black rims, one with brown-red rims)
- Smokes cigars
- Fears fish


Gordon:
- Worked for four and a half years on the Sammy Galino case (which fell through)

Nice! The only thing is, I think Louise actually goes to Amherst College, not UMass Amherst. As far as I can remember, he just says, "She's a sophomore at Amherst," right? If that's what he says then he should mean Amherst College. They're very different schools, though they are in the same town...

Ah. Valid point. I just did a quick search on google, and really, after watch 6... 8... 10 hours of SN, my ability to spot details gets dodgy. *g*

Heh. Yeah, I wouldn't expect you to be able to tell the difference. I happen to have grown up two towns over from both schools, so I'm a little more familiar with the area. I'm shocked that it appears that Google may not know everything, though! ;)
