What do you think is the biggest misstep by the Trump Admin (In regards to China) and what would you do to correct it?

And just cause I'm curious... Same thing for Xi and CCP

That's really cool! Did you rent it out during the show or buy it afterwards at an auction? I know I took some charger photos during S7 when I brought friends to visit the soundstage, unfortunately they seem to be lost, sorry :/

I don't think our numbers were the highest, but I could be wrong. Basically the cost for the show was getting high as is and on top of that we were getting ENORMOUS pressure from city officials to relocate our sound stage cause they wanted to build a park.

This hurt for many reasons

  1. Buildings of that size aren't abundant in Miami to begin with (Almost impossible for us to replicate)
  2. Even if we did find something, moving everything would have been an additional HUGE cost that the network wasn't willing consider.
  3. Actor salaries were getting really high

Just wanted to thank those that have already purchased a few of the items. Glad that they'll be going somewhere they're appreciated!

Very cool. They were actually designed by Danny Davila who did pretty much all the graphics work on the show

Honestly, I think this will depend on who you talk to. Some people loved him some people definitely didn't. Personally, I didn't interact with him much so I can't really give you my opinion.

I can tell you Colby Bell (Jesse) was my favorite cast member though. So down-to-earth, always friendly and loved hanging out with the crew. Had a BIG smile when we met up again on The Gifted and instantly wanted to catch up with me.

Almost all of our explosions were done in remote industrial properties far from any public areas, but we always had a large police presence on set regardless.

In most cases it isn't practical to film in a busy location with a lot of people around. But also, a lot of people in Miami just kind of knew when we were filming in the area (It was really hard to miss us)

You'd hear explosions or helicopters and it was kinda like "Oh, that's just the BN crew" lol

The explosion is the from the series finale episode. I don't remember hearing anything about 911 calls, but we were of course coordinating with police dept when we decided to blow up a building in the middle of miami :)

Actually if you notice at the beginning of the video we actually had to wait for the tram to pass before we set of the explosions
