The most likely scenario with the camera you mentioned is probably a lot less foggy if you look at it like this. What I think probably happened, is that they did a limited release market test somewhere that was fairly quiet and far away from large cities, and the test went poorly, hence the scrapped idea. If the statistics you see don't match what you would expect in a small sample size, sometimes companies jump the gun.

I love the underlying frustration, the near resentment, that this series is somehow your most popular production. It almost certainly has some level of sincerity to it, and it works incredibly well on a comedic level. Like you are recognizing, and resigning yourself to the phrase "Give the people what they want." I love it. Also if you see this, do another panel at Visioncon. I missed the year you were there.

[@shannonnichols3415]

So funny the Mona Lisa / DaVinci fact about him being left handed popped up…I just watched something about him & it showed him painting left handed and I wondered at the time if he really was a lefty or if it was just an oversight. Because I am a sucker for “useless” factoids, I usually jot down a reminder to myself, but forgot to do so! You are doing a great service to bring a plethora of “useless information” to the masses! It helps keep my old brain functioning at least somewhat and honestly I can talk to just about anyone with (what seems like) some degree of intelligence because I know a few key facts about a whole bunch of things!😂😂 Then again it also gives you a quick glance at a topic of interest you might have never heard or realized an interest before! Very helpful for trivia games, as well! Here’s a few some people may not know: 1. In USA highways, all ODD # Hwys go North & South (Interstate 45 North) & all EVEN # Hwys go East & West (Interstate 10 East) (Obviously, if it’s a loop, it’s a circle, so that doesn’t apply). 2. If you’re not sure which side of your car to pull closer to pump gas, look at your gas gauge…it will have a picture of a gas ⛽️ tank (sorta like that or it may show the nozzle with a drip) on whichever side of the car your gas tank is on. Big help if you have husband and kids cars getting mixed up in the driveway! 3.lawnmowers (unless they changed something) use the tortoise 🐢 (turtle) & hare 🐇 (rabbit) to stand for slow & fast
