Nice. Michael seems a real nice guy. And he directed some of my favorite episodes like Squeeze Play, The Walking Dead and Trail of Tears and The Ten Percent Solution and The Treasure of Manco.

Just wondering what he meant with the 'eerieness' of the stories. Or just the story of Trail of Tears?

Yeah, he was amazingly nice. The two other episodes he did that I didn't refer to were Fraternity of Thieves and Off the Wall. I'm not sure exactly what he was referring to with the eerieness. Trial of Tears has the scene with the Indian vision dream which could be considered eerie, so maybe he was thinking of that. And in general, the middle to later season episodes often have a darker, minor-key feel so maybe that's what he was getting at.

Great one! Playing ball hockey on set. Cool stuff. And RDA took a high stick in the schnoz delaying shooting. And an onset gym, too. Priceless insider info!
