> We went and had the most fabulous time. Stella did a wonderful job and
> had a great Alice in Wonderland themed party.
> 
> He also invited us to attend a taping of the show and even asked me if I
> wanted to be an extra in it.
> Wood eye! (old joke.) Of course I said yes.

> After taking the Warner Brothers tour at noon we went to the final run

> At 6 we returned to the set from eating at the studio commissary to watch
> the actual performance.
> 
> First they show the previous episode to catch the audience up on the
> current story line. Then they perform the new show, occasionally stopping
> for a re-take. The cast is amazingly good and re-takes weren't needed
> very often. No real bloopers to report.

> I was in the very last scene, sitting at the back of a diner. I'm not
> sure if they will use the scene (they had an alternate ending in mind)
> and even if they do I'm not sure I can be seen on camera but it sure was
> fun.
> (We didn't leave the studio until around 11PM.)
> 
> The episode is titled "The Re-Entry Minimization" and is scheduled to be
> broadcast on Oct 18th by CBS.
