Hi y'all
So: The first four shows are now mixed and in the can. They look amazing and sound incredible, and are so tightly packed with stuff even I need to watch them more than once to take it all in! It was an effort getting the complex scripts into 21 minutes, (yeah, yeah, partly my bad), but I think our awesome production teams have pulled it off!
This week has seen us putting together the various versions of the title sequences for 'movie 1'. (Different broadcasters have different requirements). Some are 'Daemon heavy', some are 'Daemon lite', some are 30 seconds, some 60 seconds, some with voiceover, some without... it's all rather confusing really! There's also a Season III recap sequence for some versions of the first episode. I think what I'll do when the shows have aired is have the different sequences put on the Website so you can all get a chance to see them all.
Yesterday we had the final record session for 'movie 2', but being a complete stinker I can't tell you who it was with. ;-)
Next wednesday we mix the 5th episode, the first part of the second 'movie', and I gotta tell ya, IMHO it is one of the best episodes of Reboot ever... and I cannot wait until you all see it!
So - it's looking good, and it's coming fast!
Have a great weekend and Stay Frosty!

I wondered that. We're only making 8. (And only four of them are 'DR'!)

ReBoot: Daemon Rising, season four of popular computer-animated series, premieres on Friday, October 19 at 5 PM EST/PST According to Cartoon Network, instead of two separate movies, Daemon Rising is now a 10 part mini-series Toonami miniseries event. On the first day, October 19, Toonami will air the first two episodes at 5 pm and 5:30p, and for six weeks, a episode will kick off the block at 5 PM on Fridays. On December 7, 2001 (unless Cartoon Network has something planned for that day for obvious reasons), the final two episodes will air back to back starting at 5 PM.
More details later tonight at CNX: Toonami Revolution, but this is indeed a HUGE event for Toonami AND Cartoon Network.
The RETURN of ReBoot! Don't miss it!
Later.

No, not that Space will be showing all the seasons of Farscape up here in the Great White North, although that is good news for us Canadian fans...
Last night was the sound mix for the first episode of Daemon Rising! All I can say is the show looks great and sounds great! It thunders by at a very rapid rate though - you'll definitely have to watch this one a few times to catch all the action!
Show 4.01 is in the can! Whoo-hoo!
Gavster
Okay - here's something certain to spark some conversations:
The titles of the individual episodes which make up the first 'movie'!!!
Enjoy!
I guess I better leave some...
[Highlight the blank spot to see the spoiler]
4.01 - Daemon Rising
ReBoot IV: Daemon Rising
4.02 - Cross Nodes
4.03 - What's Love Got To Do With It?
4.04 - Sacrifice
Just keeping y'all in the loop: We voice-recorded Daemon today, and started recording episode 5 as well. (We're having to do it in bits because not all the cast are available on the same days. Ep 5 record continues tomorrow...

Hey fellow Booters;
My position at Mainframe has been eliminated and so, as of tomorrow,
I will be joining you as a fellow member of the ReBoot loving public.
I have been with the Mainframe family for 5 years - and those five years have been incredibly intense, educational, frustrating, fun-filled and fleeting. I am extremely grateful for the friends I have made and the opportunity I have had to meet so many diverse yet common-minded people, especially those of you on the newsgroup.
I believe that things happen for a reason, whether to give us the chance to learn a lesson, or to put us in proximity to people who can benefit from our presence. I feel I have experienced both while part of the grand experiment we call Mainframe.
I don't know yet where I'll land next or what I will be doing - my new adventure is now beginning, and I can only hope that it is as fascinating as this last one has been.
I can be reached at mairi.welman@telus.net if you care to stay in touch. I would genuinely enjoy hearing from you.

Now hear this!
With the exception of Daemon's lines, 'Daemon Rising' is now recorded!

'An addictive condition suffered by Xenites when they crave the next
new episode of Xena. Symptoms include bringing Xena into every
conversation, acute restlessness, computer over-use, web-site
building, extensive searches for any and all kinds of
Xena
merchandise, and preoccupation with Thracian
music.'
Episode 3 (aka the third quarter) of 'Daemon Rising' has been recorded today!
Episode 4 is now written, and will be recorded next week.
Whoo-hoo!

Bob is the alternate. The thinker, the natural leader and doer but still with enough "guy" in him to be completely clueless when it comes to romance in a cute sort of way.
AndrAIa and Mouse - well, what can I say guys? They were designed by men for people who like looking at
attractive women. But you'll notice all three of our leading ladies have strong will, intelligence and strength of
character. Ian once commented that if you look really closely at ReBoot you'll see the women are really running
everything. The HUB have enourmous respect for women and adore them to bits. I think it is refelcted in their
writing.
Mairi
Hi Backatcha!
We currently have a contract for 8 episodes and Gavin said a while back that we are negotiating to take the story
to more, possibly 13, possibly 26. However, I have learned that nothing is certain until the signatures appear on the
dotted line. So, that said, all I can promise at this point is two 2 hour TV movies which will then be repeated as 8
episodes later in the season.
For what its worth, I think the broadcatsers will be watching the ratings for those TV movies very carefully before
ordering additional episodes. We can only hope that everyone and their dogs ( and cats) watch those movies when they
air!
Mairi
Okay, okay, I've probably tortured you guys enough and lord knows I wouldn't want you to go through the weekend preoccupied with "whither ReBoot?" and possibly hurt yourselves or innocent bystanders.
So...........
Here's the scoop, as given in a magazine interview by Gavin recently which is due to appear on the street shortly.... I always said you'd be the first to know if anything changes.....
"Question = What was the impetus behind the TV movies? Any hints as to what will happen in them?
"Answer - We love Reboot. It's our baby. And we always, always, always wanted to do more episodes.
It's the fans who are largely responsible for ReBoot's return. Without them bugging the broadcasters constantly, Cartoon Network might not have given it a chance. Without the great run on the CN, we wouldn't be talking about more shows. So here's a big thanks to our loyal fans - they never gave up on the show, and it's paying off!
As for the movies, there were originally going to be two two-hour movies which would break up into 8 episodes for TV. The first one, 'Daemon Rising', picks up where Season III left off and deals with the problems of the infected Guardians and the Supervirus, Daemon. It also answers some of the questions the fans have always asked - What happened to the other city of Mainframe? What's the deal with Dot and Enzo's father? What's Bob's backstory? Things like that.
The second movie covers new ground and deals with the outrageous cliffhanger which comes at the end of 'Daemon Rising'! (Aren't we stinkers!)
But what happened is that the order had gone to 13 episodes, so we are effectively adding a third movie to the lineup, plus an extra 13th show which will be.... A MUSICAL!
And now - as Mike the TV might say - there's more! There is now a very real chance that the order for shows will go to 26, the interest in the show is so great!"
There you have it. Believe me, we are very excited about this and hope you are too :o)
Stay Frosty,
Mairi
Good news - it is looking more and more like the new storyline is going to be a season 4 with 13 episodes instead of two TV movies! That basically means 5 more episodes. Yay!!!
YTV and CN are both very enthused as is Irwin and our master agent for licensees (sp?) American Champion. Talks are ongoing but everyone is planning for a September broadcast start. Whilst the scriptwriting is humming along here with Ian Weir taking story direction from Ian and Gavin, production will not start until April due to qualification requirements with the Canadian government CAVCO funding program.
However, that gives us a dandy window to get production on line for a Fall premiere. Content-wise I can't say much except Daemon will surprise and challenge your ideas and that most of your favourite season 3 characters will make a re-appearance.
Lastly, I would be remiss if I did not thank you all again for your support. I don't know where ReBoot would be without you!
Stay Frosty!
Mairi
[Al's Waiter's Note: And you can bet your sweet bitmap that I'll post the message here!]
Michael,
"The plan is now to produce TWO 90 minute specials. One that deals with the Daemon saga and ends in a cliff hanger then one that starts a new story line, that hopefully leads to a new series."
Hope this helps.
Ian
Contracts with a certain large US cable network are being reviewed NEXT WEEK!!
Okay - - - - - ------> breathe! <-----------

Hey - we still have to get a broadcaster to buy it, ya know! Don't go cardiac on me now!!
We are quite excited too, and glad we saved a shred of storyline for whatever is produced in the future. It will almost certainly focus on resolving the Daemon/supervirus storyline.
That's all I know for now. I will be away at NATPE (National Assoc of TV Production Executives) market in 'Nawlins' next week so I will check back in when I return.
In the meantime, I'm sure you can all keep each other quite busy! :o) Mairi
PS - Completely off topic but - have you all read the Harry Potter books? I couldn't put 'em down!
I have received a few emails today requesting clarification and verification of an email sent to a fan by our Creative Godfather, Ian Pearson.
Yes, it was the real Ian who emailed about a ReBoot TV movie being a distinct possibility. It is something we are looking into here at Mainframe, and we have had a few nibbles from broadcasters. (!!!!!!!)
As Ian said, "its early days yet". But the renewed interest must be partially attributable to all you fans who keep asking for more ReBoot - so ..........Thanks Guys!
Stay Frosty and Keep on Keepin' On!
