Some minor things for episode 3x17 in the interview with RT at TWoP:
Breaking the mystery -- we've been on [Episode] 3-17 now for four days in the room and don't have the A story broken. Typically, we can finish breaking an entire episode in a week, but this is going a little more slowly, which is strange, because it's one of the smallest mysteries we've ever done.
In the room right now, we've been discussing how a hotel robe went from one bag to another, I swear to God, for two days. Because you have to have both plausibility and entertainment -- frequently, there could be an easy answer, but it would bore the hell out of whoever's watching, so you have to come up with the clever thing, the clever twist. I've said it before, but if I could have all the time in the world in which we think of a new way for Veronica to get someone's cell phone -- because we don't want to do it the same way every time, we want to think of something new, something that's fun to watch. "Fun to watch" is something of a watchword around here, because real private detectiving is talking on the phone and plugging away on the computer.
