Ok Diane fess up you wrote this right? LOL Why didnt the writers keep this stuff in? Do you think they knew then what was going to happen in the first episode of season 5 and figured it would be worse for the fans to gets this much enjoyment with M/D in the end of this episode? hmmmm just wondering. SIGH! No, Rose, I really didn't write it......the script was by Kerry Ehrin. But I would have bet it was one of the "girls" who wrote this....and it got ix-nayed by the big guy. Here's a quote from an interview we did with her: "In hindsight I don't know that there would have been a better way to handle the pregnancy. I like that Maddie got pregnant. However, I was never thrilled with losing the baby. It was too sad and put such a dark spin on the show. Perhaps I would have let her and David live together and try to function as a normal mother and father while living this totally bizarre other life as detectives. I probably would never have let them get married, however. I think they always needed to have one foot out the door just to be able to breathe." My opinion -- while I love the missing parts of the script, and I love thinking about the possibility of the two of them living together, I think the timing for them would have been just plain bad. Maddie, David, Walter, Terri, Chicago.....all rolled together in a magnificent jumble...with not enough time in between to clear their heads and really think. I love the idea of them considering living together, I love them trading keys (although, we know David already had a key), and I would have loved to spend the summer anticipating season 5. Although, after that build-up, if Womb had still happened, I think half of America would have been suicidal!! I am going to check on some dates and times as relevant to this episode, Womb, and the Writer's strike. Well Diane i think that answers it, a woman wrote Maddie and David getting back together. I think it's obvious a woman would understand Maddie more so they would write a certain way for her and a well a man understands david more and well writes for him more. Hate to put Male writers against female writers but it makes sense. Thansk for always giving us back story with with of your fabulous interviews you were so lucky to do with the crew. I think this would have been ok if they did this because it wasnt like lets give up one of our places and live together completely. i think it would have just given them more of a way to work towards the real deal . Even though David had a key to Maddies house it was given as a business partner but in my little ole red headed noggin LOL , i think i could have imagined Maddie giving David the key like it was given here in a box as a gift but now as a partner in a relationship? Hmm can't think of a better word LOL UMMM lover? LOL But then with what happened in WWAW Diane is so right! We would have been much more so angry and well yeah found the nearest bridge and jumped LOL

That's why we are all here and in love with David & Maddie. Their love did not reach its fullness, leaving the truly 'essed wanting. Like Rose's signature says "All I want is David and Maddie's happy ending"! Thanks! Those 2 wonderful icons was made by a friend on Livejournal. She was making a bunch of differant All I Want Is Icons for herself and asked for some suggestions. Oh shes the one who has wrote a bunch of ML fanfics too with Maddie and David married with kids. I just love the icons so much! It truly is All I Want! Ok that and some more money LOL

7). Do you think Maddie fully realizes how badly she hurt David? No i don't. I think Maddie just thinks oh David will bounce back right away now that Walter is gone. He'll make his move for me and all will be fine. We'll flirt ,banter and well maybe fall into each others arms. So she's throwiing the offers out there right away waiting for him to jump her so to speak LOL Well she really gets a surprise when he doesnt react that way. He doesnt say anything or do anything. She pushes him till he cracks but not in the way she wants him too. He gives her this speech and well she sees he is still angry and hurt, really hurt. I thought Maddie showed that she realised how hurt David is ,she didnt say a thing cause it really shocked her. I think David needed to walk out of the office after giving that speech, she needed time to let it all sink in, should there have been another scene with Maddie apologising to David for hurting him?> YEAH there should have been. maybe if there wasnt a writers strike we would have got more and then no Bert dancing to Wully Bully LOL Which is one of my sons fave scenes. He always asks me to put it on LOL

Oh a i found another old story you did on FF.net and reread it and remembered how i just loved it too! This little doozie written by Diane is called "To The Moon and Back" and is one of my favorite fanfics. www.fanfiction.net/s/64880/1/To_the_Moon_and_BackNot to sound corny....or anymore essed!.....the first time I read this I was SO relieved, in a weird way because I could then tell myself that no matter what happened at the end of the show, Maddie and David and Moonlighting would live on in our hearts and minds forever!!.....and then I found Virtual Moonlighting and all was right with the world!! ;D It's a coping mechanism, okay??!!......Rose, did you make that appointment? ;D

Thanks bees and Rose.......that little gem was actually my very first attempt at fanfic. While I myself think there are a few very cringe worthy moments in it, I thank you for your kind words.
PS....I am leaving on vacation Saturday and have already packed a legal pad and my favorite pen, so we'll see what transpires!!

LOL ROFL yup appt made! Funny how most tv show fans must write fanfic for their tv shows huh? Especially when they end badly . Most of my fave tv shows alwasy seem to end badly. i always wonder why do alot of writers do that to thier fans? If they have enough time to end it good why dont they? For me ANGEL ended badly, Buffy ended ok , and now my latest The LWORD which ended on Sunday ,ended BADLY, yup i started watching for Cybill and she wasnt on much this season and of course ML. OH well . off to read some fanfic maybe LOL

Off topic but not really: Did you see how neatly made David's bed is when he comes home and listens to his answering machine? I don't know but David Addison actually neatly making his bed with military precision is so out of character! I thibk David would just throw the comforter over the bed or just leave it in a big mess!

So agree ILD! That's a fun observation - especially given the state of mind that he was in at the end of this season. I can't see him making his bed like that...maybe Maddie snuck over and did it! xxx
