"I have a great imaginary world, but sometimes I just need things to happen."—Ally McBeal
Author's Note
12-19-02
First of all, I would like to say how much respect I have for all of those who were involved in any way with the show Ally McBeal. Though I consider it brilliant and affecting, I do think that the show was treated with much negligence towards the end of its life, and therefore all of the characters, and more importantly, their actions and behaviors, are based on how they were during the first few seasons of the show.
Though many an hour goes into each of these "scripts," I find that they can be read, or skimmed, rather, very quickly. This is not how they are intended to be. Stop, savor the words. Try to picture what's happening in your head. The notations, such as this one: " [with anger] " are there for a purpose. Most importantly, though, read the script in the way that is best to your liking, to get the full, "McBeal mood."
Sincerely,
Ethan
*Disclaimer: I own the rights to none of the characters (unless they're original, haha) seeing as how 20th Century Fox does. This is merely a work by a fan of the show, and has not been officially commissioned in any way. All names, events, and/or places (other than the ones above mentioned) are purely coincidental and have no basis in fact.
And by the way, if you want to sue, I already know a firm in Boston, so don't try.
