Anyone go to this? The unrelated Youtube live stream started with 4 hours of mostly interviews which were pretty great and hopefully will be uploaded after. Craig and Troy were great hosts (even if chat suspected these were prerecorded - which did seem likely as a “live” video stream replayed at one point). The stream itself seems to not include the S2 episodes, which is kinda funny tbh but hasn’t detracted from the event. I spotted @michaelt in the chat. Anyway, it’s a really cool format / model for future fan engagement. ---

Yes, I was there off and on on Saturday. I missed the start because I had to pull an all nighter at work and went to sleep around 5 am. So yeah, I hope they upload the interviews to so I can watch them for the 1st time, heh. ---

That script reading sounds fun. I’m curious if it will be an unproduced script for the series like the one at fan fest was going to be. ---

I guess rights is a nightmare but a shame there wasn’t some sort of remaster/upscale blu-ray release of some eps for this anniversary. Seems the technology is there. This event is cool though. Getting the cast back together is a treat for fans. ---

The clip looked good but I’m pretty broke right now. Is it worth the $15 stream? Obv for charity but I am Mondo-broke. ---
