It actually DID go into a little detail as to the process of pre-production, and the timetable of such things. IT HAD A COBRA KAI REFERENCE!! What more can you possibly want? But no matter- let's say it failed to tickle your pickle, for whatever reason- Fine...Good, you didn't enjoy the article; move on.To vest any emotion into expectation of content, or to think that a stranger who doesn't know you OWES you more, and then to post angry, bitter, "I'm not a creepy fan who cares about the minutia of Kevin's iife; DO BETTY NEXT TIME OR ELSE" makes you, in fact, the CREEPIEST OF FANS.
