Once again...long time, no episode. We've no real excuses other than decoupage and limited computer access. Anyone want to but the episode in its entirety bound in three legal notebooks? Oh, the episode...that's the point here. Written and ready is episode 10: Young Mann.

You'd think summer would have provided us with more time to work on episodes, but somehow it's only made us more slack. Nonetheless, there is a new episode up for your enjoyment. Check out episode 9: Playing Games.

A new episode (episode 8: Strange Condition) can be found in the Junior Year section of the site. Spider-man opened this weekend. There's all kind of secret identity stuff going on. Go read the episode to find out what all this means. Thanks as always for the support and continued interest :)

April 13, 2002
Finally! A new episode. You'll find the latest (episode 7: Meet the Parents) in the Junior Year section of the site. There are a lot of guest stars in this episode so try to keep up. Thanks for sticking with us through the long periods between episodes. You all rock!

We don't exactly have a new episode for you, but we've got the next best thing: a new beginnings special. It's called Open Up and will be filed in the reruns section of the site. We're working on the episode, but we thought we would release this since it was ready and since the teaser we posted did create a little curiosity as to what the heck it is. It's not as creative as the things people suggested it might be, but...hopefully you'll find it enjoyable. Also, if you followed a link from Debi's site and are looking for those Rules of Attraction screencaps, look no further. Enjoy those too :)

Well, it has been three weeks since an episode (give or take a day, but who's counting?). The good news is there is a new episode of the Junior Year (episode 6: Deal). The bad news is...oh, cool, there isn't any :) The credits are up and you can check them out at the appropriate time during the episode. I think I forgot to mention before that there is new footage of Gwen, Johanna and Meagan. We think it's pretty nifty so be sure to check it out. That's it for now. We'll be working on episode 7 asap :)

If you've been wondering about the credits, worry no more. We've finally got them up on a reliable site so you can check them out anytime. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way for you to download the file. You can view it, you just can't save it to your computer. You can deal with that, right? :) You'll find a link to the credits and any other videos we make under the Cast and Credits section or, for a limited time, you can click here.

Well, we said the episode would be out on the sixth so does it really surprise anyone that it wasn't? I love deadlines...especially the swooshing noise they make as they fly by. Anyway, the latest episode of the Junior Year (episode 5: What If?) has been posted so please check it out. We'll get to work on the next episode straight away. Later :-)

February 1, 2002
We gave the site a slight makeover. Hopefully, you'll find the frames useful in navigating the site. Don't worry, you can get to the old version of the site by clicking "No Frames" in the menu to the left. Some of the pages have been adjusted for frames and might look a little weird in the no frames version, but nothing is THAT different. The next update will be a new episode and it should be done soon...let's say Wednesday the 6th. Until we meet again...
