out_therethese 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)

Re: Cupcakes Part 1
Date: 2004-05-30 01:54 am (UTC)Aw, Dan has a trademark knock? Don't ask me why, but I love that detail.
Now that's the kind of thing that worried me. I'm sure he would have a distinctive knock that Casey would recognise and know that it was Dan visiting, but I couldn't remember hearing him knock on anyone's door in the show to know what it would be. And then I started worrying that maybe he knocks on a door in every episode in season 2, so you'd be thinking it was totally wrong! I really do get hung up over the silliest things when I'm trying to write!
The cross-eyed bit, and Casey not being sure if Dan was teasing him or if he really did have flour on his nose came from that scene where Dan chucks Casey on the nose. I see Casey as sometimes being aware and alert for practical jokes, but more often getting caught out by them!
There's something about the "I'll try not to get confused and call you mom." line that sounds a bit awkward to me.
I agree. It doesn't sound even vaguely like Dan either. I wasn't going to bother polishing it up though (which you can either read as nice because I'm comfortable with you reading my rough stuff, or rude because I dump my rubbish in your LJ!! *g*), but if I was to post it properly I should do a whole lot of tidying. But first I should watch another couple of episodes. Yes, I like that plan. I shall curl up on the sofa and watch some more.
(BTW, while I think about it, I've got another episode of caps up. And I'll be going back and capping 'Sally' - I watched it while eating dinner that was too awkward to eat with one hand so I could cap with the other).
Sidenote: shouldn't there be a comma before which?
Commas aren't my strong suit, but I'm pretty sure there should be!
Oh, I totally loved it!
*beams* You know, apart from snippets in a note book, the only fics I've written recently have been ones you've told me to write!!
