[19:32] anitrain: Before we begin, I would like to take a moment to recoginze the efforts of one man who is here with us tonight. Tucsoncoyote founded the Mission_Kim_Possible group just over three years ago, and was the one who let us all know that disney planned to end KP at 65 episodes. If it were not for him, I doubt any of us would be here for this chat today. We thank you Tuc for all you've done for the fandom.
[19:33] Steve: Thanks Tucsoncoyote!
[19:33] anitrain: And the first question,
[19:33] anitrain: Mr. Loter, The Administrator of RonStoppable.net is here. Do you mind if Ron joins in some?
[19:33] Steve: Your ron-ness is welcome
[19:33] RonStoppable: Badical!
[19:34] anitrain: Tuc, you get the first real question now
[19:34] Steve: Tech problems?
[19:35] Zei: Shouldn't be...
[19:35] Steve: I think this may be a really long question...
[19:35] roycereece: No, I don't think so...
[19:35] binski: .... typing.... I guess...
[19:35] wallaceb: [19:34] MrPotty: My first question: Who came up with the "Fight Club"- reference in "Ill Suited"? ("We do not talk about the Chess club")
[19:35] Steve: Sounds like a Bob or Brian to me.
[19:36] Zei: Two questions from Nabusan...
[19:36] Zei: First up: Will we see more Debutante/Rufus shipping in future Camille episodes?
[19:36] Steve: Yes
[19:36] Zei: Hehe. And second: Have you heard anything about the ratings for the Season 4 premiere night yet? Was it bigger than StD?
[19:37] Steve: We'll know by Tuesday
[19:37] anitrain: Question from RavenStar: Judging from Shego's getup in 'Car Alarm' - who's the Fran Drescher fan on the crew?
[19:37] Steve: Ha! Think more 'My Name Is Earl'!
[19:38] binski: CarbonF: question 1 What do you think of the order in which the episodes have aired so far? For example We've seen Kim drive her car with gadgets but we haven't seen her buy the car or have it get tricked out by the tweebs yet
[19:38] Steve: Not thrilled by the running order, but I guess it will all make sense in the end.
[19:39] morefood2001: 1 question: Will Frugal Lucre and Drakken team up? Is Lucre the one Drakken tutors?
[19:39] Steve: Yes
[19:40] roycereece: Why was Smashmouth chosen to appear in 'Queen Bebe'?
[19:41] Steve: Hard to remember- it was a long time ago. I think it was a last minute decision,though.
[19:41] wallaceb: Even though Brick Flagg graduated and went off to college, will he ever come back to Middleton to visit?
[19:41] Steve: Nope.
[19:42] Zei: Another set of two questions...
[19:42] Zei: Did you watch the four premiere episodes last night for yourself? Any among the bunch that you preferred?
[19:43] Steve: I did watch them and was very surprised at the announcer talking over the end credits of Ill Suited. As far as the four goes, Ill sUited is the favorite. Trading Faces will remain in my head as the one of the hardest episodes to produce ever.
[19:44] binski: why do you say that?
[19:44] Zei: And the second...Will Warmonga return after 'Mad Dogs and Aliens'?
[19:44] anitrain: (The anouncer talking over the end was very rude.)
[19:44] Zei: Oh, whoops. Heh. Two questions at once I guess.
[19:44] Steve: Trading Faces was a different type of episode. Mystery stories are hard to do.
[19:45] Steve: Warmonga will return after Mad Dogs.
[19:45] anitrain: Who made the decision to bring Frugal Lucre back?
[19:45] Steve: Mark and Bob. They have a soft spot for unloved villians!
[19:45] anitrain: As well they should.
[19:45] anitrain: Will Adam Berry ever release a musical CD for his scores on Kim Possible?
[19:46] Steve: Doubtful. It would be Disney's decision.
[19:46] binski: CarbonF: 2. With Kim's supersuit are you concerned that adding special powers, and the "indistructible" quality, will only force the villians to increase their weapons or attacks and not generally add to the story or even take away from her "she can do anything" image rather than a suit?
[19:47] Steve: The supersuit is put out of comission (for the most part) in Ill sUited. That episode exsists to eliminate the corner we put ourselves in.
[19:47] morefood2001: 1 question: Will there be a space battle in the alien episode?
[19:47] Steve: Sort of. There is a space fight in the future.
[19:48] roycereece: 1 question :Will Ron's middle name be revealed in Season 4?
[19:48] Steve: Nope. Sorry.
[19:48] wallaceb: 2 questions
[19:48] wallaceb: [19:40] MrPotty: Will Drakken & Shego work together again in this season, now that there are all the team ups with other villains?
[19:48] Steve: Yes, D and S are reunited pretty quickly.
[19:48] wallaceb: second question
[19:48] wallaceb: [19:35] Krist: Ok. Will there be any singing in any of the episodes of Season 4?
[19:49] Steve: Um, I don't think so. I can't remember any songs.
[19:49] Zei: 2 questions...
[19:49] Zei: One from FaZhou: I noticed at one point a shot that looked like it was done on multiplane, in a way I haven't seen before on the show. Is that so? What other kinds of technical things are new this season, as opposed to previous seasons?
[19:50] Steve: Well, some episodes require more 'cinematic' staging than others. We tried to make certain episodes feel more like movies. There will be CGI in the 2-parter.
[19:50] Zei: Second: A picture of a wrist-watch sized Kimmunicator was recently leaked onto the net. Can you tell us if it has any new capabilities?
[19:51] Steve: What! Leaked! Where was that?
[19:51] Zei: I believe it was on a new KP wallpaper made by Disney...
[19:51] roycereece: it was like a wallpaper...
[19:51] anitrain: ARA found it in a KP wallpaper
[19:51] anitrain: Then it was posted on Rs.net
[19:52] roycereece: and SDS
[19:52] Steve: Hmmm. I think I need to see that before I comment any further.
[19:52] anitrain: Okay then, moving on.
[19:52] anitrain: What is your most fun memory working with the KP staff (animators and/or actors)?
[19:53] Steve: The screening of STD in the Disney Movie Theatre on the big screen was a huge thing for me.
[19:53] binski: CarbonF: 4. Would you be able to tell us the "correct order" to view the episodes in, if there is one, for nit picking purposes?
[19:53] Steve: I would need to pull up a list that I don't have at the moment. Sorry!
[19:54] morefood2001: Rippy: quetion for Steve: will a villain ever use Ron to get to Kim?
[19:54] Tucsoncoyote: Tucsoncoytoe here and here is a question from inglor: Is there a chance perhaps of a Jake long/ Kim Possible Crossover?
[19:55] Steve: Well, to answer the Ron question- sorta. I know I'm vague, but I would be giving away a really cool moment.
[19:55] Steve: I don't think there's a possibility of a Jake Long anything!
[19:55] wallaceb: 19:47] JohnnyS: Can you ask Steve this question ---> Will the two-parter finale have an all-star guest cast like ASiT?
[19:55] anitrain: The Jake Long fans won't be happy to hear that...
[19:56] Steve: Nope. It's mostly kept in the family.
[19:56] roycereece: [19:36] Avenger: It may just be me, but from all the episodes we've seen so far, the show seems to be a little edgier, both in content and artistic design, than the previous three seasons. Was there a conscious effort from the production team to move in this direction, or was it simply born out of the necessity of the storyline?
[19:57] Steve: Well, both. Most of the artists got a chance to stretch their cinematic stylings on Jake Long and I think it helped Kim overall.
[19:58] wallaceb: [19:43] Krist: another question: Will Rider Strong be doing any voice acting in season 4 since he is Brick Flagg is not in it?
[19:58] Steve: Nope.
[19:58] morefood2001: [15:50] binski: Note: For this chat, only our guests and mods will have 'voice' meaning that only their messages will be broadcast. If you have a question you would like forwarded, double-click a mod's user id and send them the message. It will be forwarded in turn.
[19:58] Zei: Two questions...
[19:59] Zei: One: Can you tell us how many episodes Camille appears in?
[19:59] Steve: Camille is in 3 or 4, I think.
[19:59] Zei: Okay, and two...
[19:59] Zei: Another question: Any other guest stars planned for this season other than ones that fans know about? (Ashley Tisdale, J.K. Simmons, etc)
[20:00] Steve: Yeah, there's a handful, but mostly it was kept to the main cast.
[20:00] anitrain: Will we see the founder of Smarty Mart (or the other three rich people) agian?
[20:01] Steve: Martin Smarty appears a few times, including a very memorable sequence with Shego.
[20:01] binski: CarbonF: 5. what was meant by Kim's line "If the tweebs switch schools, then so do I"?
[20:01] Steve: Kim stood up for her brothers.
[20:01] morefood2001: Fowarded from tuc's list: K80 bout the girl in the blue sweater.. who is his fave.. will there be a speaking role.?
[20:02] Steve: Y'know, I'm still not sure who that character is. Sorry!
[20:02] roycereece: [21:03] RavenStar: *Will we be able to see the storyboards and stuff that that were shown at the Gathering of the Gargoyles panel, now that S4 is airing?
[20:03] Steve: Not in my control, but I would very much doubt it.
[20:03] wallaceb: two questions
[20:03] binski: What happens to that stuff?
[20:03] wallaceb: [19:56] MrPotty: It has been said several times that Season 4 will probably end the series. But if Disney demands a 5th season, will everybody return or do Bob, Mark and you give the show into some other people's hands?
[20:04] Steve: I would be heartbroken if someone else directs the show. I'd be happy to return, but I feel like I need a little KP break first.
[20:04] wallaceb: second question
[20:04] wallaceb: [19:52] RavenStar: Besides San Francisco and Paris, what other new cities can we expect to see in S4?
[19:52] RavenStar: *Besides San Francisco
[20:05] Steve: There's a number of places- Greece comes to mind. I think this is our most international season.
[20:05] Zei: Two questions (again...lol...)
[20:05] Zei: There's been talk about Ron's character becoming somewhat more developed during this season. Will he graduate from the "sidekick" roll into more of a "partner" type of position?
[20:06] Steve: Yeah, I think there's some development for Ron. Certainly by the 2 parter.
[20:06] Zei: Second: Will most of the new episodes make references to past episodes?
[20:07] Steve: Well, we try to have continuity as much as we can. There may be some other references.
[20:07] anitrain: MGFanJay: What inspired you to start your career in animation?
[20:08] Steve: Simply put, I was inspired by films like Star Wars and Blade Runner.
[20:09] anitrain: Does anyone on the cast want to do a live action movie anymore if given the chance?
[20:09] anitrain: *cast/crew
[20:09] Steve: Um, not sure. I never really thought about it or talked with anyone in the cast about it.
[20:09] binski: Note: I have very few questions coming to me. If you send them to me I can get them in the queue sooner...
[20:09] binski: CarbonF: I was under the impression that Camile was going to be some kind of pop star and yet she's more of an Heiress, was I mistaken?
[20:10] Steve: She was always meant to be an heiress.
[20:10] morefood2001: 2 questions
[20:10] morefood2001: 1: Personal question: how many times does Wayne appear in person for S4?
[20:10] anitrain: Wade.
[20:10] morefood2001: wade
[20:11] morefood2001: sorry
[20:11] Steve: Wade is in the season alot.
[20:11] morefood2001:
[20:11] morefood2001: 2. Rippy: 2 part question: Since the senior table is now gone, isn't this year in school basically the same for Kim and Ron as their Junior year? why was an attempt made to make it the same?
[20:11] Steve: No, there's defeintley 'senior' differences.
[20:12] wallaceb: 2 questions
[20:12] wallaceb: [20:09] nabusan: An online article revealed that Ron's baby sister had a greater destiny linked to the secret ninja school Ron went to in 'Exchange'. Will this storyline effect the two-part finale?
[20:12] Steve: Actually that story is concluded in an event right before the 2 parter.
[20:12] wallaceb: second
[20:13] wallaceb: [19:50] Zoro: hey can you ask him if we'll get a reaction from shego and drakken from ron and kim dating.
[20:13] Steve: Yes,from Shego at least.
[20:13] Zei: Two questions...
[20:13] Zei: One, can you tell us what Ron's sister's name going to be?
[20:14] Steve: Hana
[20:14] binski: Does she sing? (sorry... couldn't resist)
[20:14] Zei: Two, At the Gathering of the Gargoyles, the animatic of "Ill-Suited" that you showed there had Kim kissng Ron on the lips after she asks him "You okay, so called boyfriend?". Unfortunately, that didn't happen in the finished episode. Why was it cut?
[20:15] Steve: I cut it for time.
[20:15] anitrain: From Tucsoncoyote: If there were to be additional villains, could there be a second rival to Dementor and Drakken?
[20:16] Steve: By rival I assume you mean bigger and meaner. If so, yes.
[20:16] binski: VRWC: Question: Will Ron's being on the football team make any more appearances this season?
[20:16] Steve: Yes
[20:16] morefood2001: If there were a Season 5, would there be any more villains added to Kim and Ron's List?
[20:17] Steve: Not thinking past season 4 !
[20:17] wallaceb: 2 questions
[20:17] wallaceb: [20:12] MrPotty: Was the line with the shark in the end credits of 'Ill-Suited' directed to someone special? Maybe the people from the 'Yes On 87'-campaign?
[20:17] Steve: To all the naysayers!
[20:17] wallaceb: question 2
[20:17] wallaceb: [20:13] JohnnyS: In Season 4, will Kim be making a trip to South East Asia? (i.e. Malaysia)
[20:18] Steve: Nope, sorry.
[20:18] RonStoppable: And as I said before... she did hit a squid with a rowboat once, so it wasn't that strange of a question...
[20:18] Zei: 2 questions...
[20:18] Zei: What kind of role do Jim and Tim play in future episodes? Will they be less annoying to Kim this season?
[20:19] Steve: We see more of Jim and Tim at the beginning of the season. Annoying is for you to deceide!
[20:19] Zei: Two...
[20:19] * morefood2001 needs more questions. Wallace and Royce do also
[20:19] Zei: At the end of "So the Drama", Ron scares Drakken into saying his name instead of referring to him as "the buffoon". Will Ron's influence over Drakken there remain in Season 4 or will Ron give him what for if he refers to him other than by his real name again?
[20:20] Steve: Wow! Very few no comments and few questions! What's going on!?
[20:20] Zei: It's the end of the world as we know it
[20:20] Zei: But I feel fine.
[20:20] RonStoppable: We'll get right on that when the chats over...
[20:20] anitrain: Was anything note-worthy (other than that kissing scene) cut from Ill-Suited or the other three new episodes?
[20:21] Steve: Nah, Drakken and Ron are back to their usual selves.
[20:21] Steve: There was ALOT and I mean AAAALLLOTTTT cut out this season.
[20:21] anitrain: Can you give a few examples?
[20:22] Steve: All the animatics ran way too long. Sometimes five minutes. We had to eliminate sub-plots, characters appearances, just a ton of stuff. There was an entire sequence of Jim and Tim helping Ron get the supersuit in Ill Suited.
[20:23] binski: AstroHomeCom931: Well Ron cooking skills come to play in s4?
[20:23] Steve: Ha! Nope.
[20:23] morefood2001: do you have a "most fun" memory working with the cast/animators?
[20:23] morefood2001: nvm
[20:23] morefood2001: skip
[20:23] Steve: I think I answered that already.
[20:23] roycereece: [20:21] slicknickshady: I guess you could ask........Will there be at least one kiss on the lips this season? (I mean the worst he could say is no comment) lol.
[20:23] Steve: Of course.
[20:24] wallaceb: 3 questions
[20:24] wallaceb: [20:20] MrPotty: Has there been a guest star that you REALLY wanted to have but couldn't get?
[20:25] Steve: Sure, I've always wanted to work with the cast of Buffy The Vampire Slayer. I got Nick Brendon for Dragon, though. I picked out a GREAT voice for a villian this season , but was turned down because the actor was insulted to be asked to do tv!
[20:25] wallaceb: question 2:
[20:20] JohnnyS: Will the two-parter finale have an all-star guest cast like ASiT?
[20:26] Steve: I think I answered that already, too.
[20:26] wallaceb: question 3:
[20:21] Tucsoncoyote: besides Shego and Camille now are there any chances of a new female villainess besides these two? Also.. whatever happened to Adrena-lynn?
[20:26] Steve: Yes, Warmonga. I'm sorry but I won't even put Adrena in a group shot.
[20:27] Zei: LOL. Sorry, that was just kinda funny.
[20:27] Steve: Dont expect Avarius, either!
[20:27] anitrain: Will Felix make a reappearance this season?
[20:27] Steve: Yes
[20:27] binski: Liokaiser: 1.) Will Ron get to be play Hero Boy again? 2.) If Disney asked do you think you, Bob, and Marc would work on a Kim Possible Comic?
[20:28] Steve: Man, I hope someone fixes all my misspelling!
[20:28] Steve: 1. Yes and 2. Yes.
[20:29] morefood2001: We've heard there will be a new, serious villian, could you tell us about him/her and perhaps what inspired the idea?.
[20:29] Steve: Well, it would be giving too much away, but we wanted a villian that was a real threat. No funny clownish behavior, just evil.
[20:30] wallaceb: 2 questions
[20:30] wallaceb: [20:18] Avenger: to follow up Tucsoncoyote's query: Will that bigger, meaner villain be me? MWAHAHAHAHA! (you don't really have to ask him that)
[20:30] Zei: And Disney let you? LOL. Sorry, you don't have to answer that.
[20:30] wallaceb: [20:23] nabusan: Will Kim be wearing new mission clothes this season, and if so - will it be permanent?
[20:30] Steve: Check out Am Drag- Homecoming to see what I mean.
[20:31] wallaceb: [20:21] slicknickshady: I guess you could ask........Will there be at least one kiss on the lips this season? (I mean the worst he could say is no comment) lol.
[20:31] Zei: ...already asked, Wallace.
[20:31] Steve: Next question, please. (sorry!)
[20:31] Zei: Okay...
[20:31] Zei: Two questions.
[20:32] Zei: One...
[20:32] Zei: Will this season bring to light Kim's dads feelings now that Kim and Ron are "together"? Will there be a 'father to boyfriend' chat?
[20:32] Steve: Sort-of. Later in the season.
[20:32] Zei: Two...
[20:32] Zei: How many episodes will Yori be in?
[20:33] Steve: 2 episodes. 'Big Bother' and 'Oh No Yono!'
[20:33] anitrain: What can you tell us about episode title for Season 4, "Odds Man In"?
[20:34] Steve: It's about Ron's dad, the actuary calculating the odds of Kim and Ron's survival.
[20:34] binski: CarbonF: 8. Are you pleased with the results of the animation so far? It seems that Kim's face has more of a round apperance than it had in Season 3.
[20:34] Steve: Wellllll....mostly pleased. Mostly.
[20:34] morefood2001: 2 questions
[20:34] morefood2001: getting back to the evil rival issue, what about smarter and meaner?
[20:34] morefood2001: Do you have much (if any) input on the writing content of each episode, or are you just much more comfortable drawing 'dem pretty pictures?
[19:32] anitrain: Before we begin, I would like to take a moment to recoginze the efforts of one man who is here with us tonight. Tucsoncoyote founded the Mission_Kim_Possible group just over three years ago, and was the one who let us all know that disney planned to end KP at 65 episodes. If it were not for him, I doubt any of us would be here for this chat today. We thank you Tuc for all you've done for the fandom.
[19:33] Steve: Thanks Tucsoncoyote!
[19:33] anitrain: And the first question,
[19:33] anitrain: Mr. Loter, The Administrator of RonStoppable.net is here. Do you mind if Ron joins in some?
[19:33] Steve: Your ron-ness is welcome
[19:33] RonStoppable: Badical!
[19:34] anitrain: Tuc, you get the first real question now
[19:34] Steve: Tech problems?
[19:35] Zei: Shouldn't be...
[19:35] Steve: I think this may be a really long question...
[19:35] roycereece: No, I don't think so...
[19:35] binski: .... typing.... I guess...
[19:35] wallaceb: [19:34] MrPotty: My first question: Who came up with the "Fight Club"- reference in "Ill Suited"? ("We do not talk about the Chess club")
[19:35] Steve: Sounds like a Bob or Brian to me.
[19:36] Zei: Two questions from Nabusan...
[19:36] Zei: First up: Will we see more Debutante/Rufus shipping in future Camille episodes?
[19:36] Steve: Yes

[19:37] Steve: We'll know by Tuesday
[19:37] anitrain: Question from RavenStar: Judging from Shego's getup in 'Car Alarm' - who's the Fran Drescher fan on the crew?
[19:37] Steve: Ha! Think more 'My Name Is Earl'!
[19:38] binski: CarbonF: question 1 What do you think of the order in which the episodes have aired so far? For example We've seen Kim drive her car with gadgets but we haven't seen her buy the car or have it get tricked out by the tweebs yet
[19:38] Steve: Not thrilled by the running order, but I guess it will all make sense in the end.
[19:39] morefood2001: 1 question: Will Frugal Lucre and Drakken team up? Is Lucre the one Drakken tutors?
[19:39] Steve: Yes
[19:40] roycereece: Why was Smashmouth chosen to appear in 'Queen Bebe'?
[19:41] Steve: Hard to remember- it was a long time ago. I think it was a last minute decision,though.
[19:41] wallaceb: Even though Brick Flagg graduated and went off to college, will he ever come back to Middleton to visit?
[19:41] Steve: Nope.
[19:42] Zei: Another set of two questions...

[19:44] anitrain: (The anouncer talking over the end was very rude.)
[19:44] Zei: Oh, whoops. Heh. Two questions at once I guess.
[19:44] Steve: Trading Faces was a different type of episode. Mystery stories are hard to do.
[19:45] Steve: Warmonga will return after Mad Dogs.
[19:45] anitrain: Who made the decision to bring Frugal Lucre back?
[19:45] Steve: Mark and Bob. They have a soft spot for unloved villians!
[19:45] anitrain: As well they should.
[19:45] anitrain: Will Adam Berry ever release a musical CD for his scores on Kim Possible?
[19:46] Steve: Doubtful. It would be Disney's decision.
[19:46] binski: CarbonF: 2. With Kim's supersuit are you concerned that adding special powers, and the "indistructible" quality, will only force the villians to increase their weapons or attacks and not generally add to the story or even take away from her "she can do anything" image rather than a suit?
[19:47] Steve: The supersuit is put out of comission (for the most part) in Ill sUited. That episode exsists to eliminate the corner we put ourselves in.
[19:47] morefood2001: 1 question: Will there be a space battle in the alien episode?
[19:47] Steve: Sort of. There is a space fight in the future.
[19:48] roycereece: 1 question :Will Ron's middle name be revealed in Season 4?
[19:48] Steve: Nope. Sorry.
[19:48] wallaceb: 2 questions
[19:48] wallaceb: [19:40] MrPotty: Will Drakken & Shego work together again in this season, now that there are all the team ups with other villains?
[19:48] Steve: Yes, D and S are reunited pretty quickly.
[19:48] wallaceb: second question
[19:48] wallaceb: [19:35] Krist: Ok. Will there be any singing in any of the episodes of Season 4?
[19:49] Steve: Um, I don't think so. I can't remember any songs.
[19:49] Zei: 2 questions...
[19:49] Zei: One from FaZhou: I noticed at one point a shot that looked like it was done on multiplane, in a way I haven't seen before on the show. Is that so? What other kinds of technical things are new this season, as opposed to previous seasons?
[19:50] Steve: Well, some episodes require more 'cinematic' staging than others. We tried to make certain episodes feel more like movies. There will be CGI in the 2-parter.
[19:50] Zei: Second: A picture of a wrist-watch sized Kimmunicator was recently leaked onto the net. Can you tell us if it has any new capabilities?
[19:51] Steve: What! Leaked! Where was that?
[19:51] Zei: I believe it was on a new KP wallpaper made by Disney...
[19:51] roycereece: it was like a wallpaper...
[19:51] anitrain: ARA found it in a KP wallpaper
[19:51] anitrain: Then it was posted on Rs.net
[19:52] roycereece: and SDS
[19:52] Steve: Hmmm. I think I need to see that before I comment any further.
[19:52] anitrain: Okay then, moving on.
[19:52] anitrain: What is your most fun memory working with the KP staff (animators and/or actors)?
[19:53] Steve: The screening of STD in the Disney Movie Theatre on the big screen was a huge thing for me.
[19:53] binski: CarbonF: 4. Would you be able to tell us the "correct order" to view the episodes in, if there is one, for nit picking purposes?
[19:53] Steve: I would need to pull up a list that I don't have at the moment. Sorry!
[19:54] morefood2001: Rippy: quetion for Steve: will a villain ever use Ron to get to Kim?
[19:54] Tucsoncoyote: Tucsoncoytoe here and here is a question from inglor: Is there a chance perhaps of a Jake long/ Kim Possible Crossover?
[19:55] Steve: Well, to answer the Ron question- sorta. I know I'm vague, but I would be giving away a really cool moment.
[19:55] Steve: I don't think there's a possibility of a Jake Long anything!
[19:55] wallaceb: 19:47] JohnnyS: Can you ask Steve this question ---> Will the two-parter finale have an all-star guest cast like ASiT?
[19:55] anitrain: The Jake Long fans won't be happy to hear that...
[19:56] Steve: Nope. It's mostly kept in the family.
[19:56] roycereece: [19:36] Avenger: It may just be me, but from all the episodes we've seen so far, the show seems to be a little edgier, both in content and artistic design, than the previous three seasons. Was there a conscious effort from the production team to move in this direction, or was it simply born out of the necessity of the storyline?
[19:57] Steve: Well, both. Most of the artists got a chance to stretch their cinematic stylings on Jake Long and I think it helped Kim overall.
[19:58] wallaceb: [19:43] Krist: another question: Will Rider Strong be doing any voice acting in season 4 since he is Brick Flagg is not in it?
[19:58] Steve: Nope.
[19:58] morefood2001: [15:50] binski: Note: For this chat, only our guests and mods will have 'voice' meaning that only their messages will be broadcast. If you have a question you would like forwarded, double-click a mod's user id and send them the message. It will be forwarded in turn.
[19:58] Zei: Two questions...
[19:59] Zei: One: Can you tell us how many episodes Camille appears in?
[19:59] Steve: Camille is in 3 or 4, I think.
[19:59] Zei: Okay, and two...
[19:59] Zei: Another question: Any other guest stars planned for this season other than ones that fans know about? (Ashley Tisdale, J.K. Simmons, etc)
[20:00] Steve: Yeah, there's a handful, but mostly it was kept to the main cast.
[20:00] anitrain: Will we see the founder of Smarty Mart (or the other three rich people) agian?
[20:01] Steve: Martin Smarty appears a few times, including a very memorable sequence with Shego.
[20:01] binski: CarbonF: 5. what was meant by Kim's line "If the tweebs switch schools, then so do I"?
[20:01] Steve: Kim stood up for her brothers.
[20:01] morefood2001: Fowarded from tuc's list: K80 bout the girl in the blue sweater.. who is his fave.. will there be a speaking role.?
[20:02] Steve: Y'know, I'm still not sure who that character is. Sorry!
[20:02] roycereece: [21:03] RavenStar: *Will we be able to see the storyboards and stuff that that were shown at the Gathering of the Gargoyles panel, now that S4 is airing?
[20:03] Steve: Not in my control, but I would very much doubt it.
[20:03] wallaceb: two questions
[20:03] binski: What happens to that stuff?
[20:03] wallaceb: [19:56] MrPotty: It has been said several times that Season 4 will probably end the series. But if Disney demands a 5th season, will everybody return or do Bob, Mark and you give the show into some other people's hands?
[20:04] Steve: I would be heartbroken if someone else directs the show. I'd be happy to return, but I feel like I need a little KP break first.
[20:04] wallaceb: second question
[20:04] wallaceb: [19:52] RavenStar: Besides San Francisco and Paris, what other new cities can we expect to see in S4?
[19:52] RavenStar: *Besides San Francisco
[20:05] Steve: There's a number of places- Greece comes to mind. I think this is our most international season.
[20:05] Zei: Two questions (again...lol...)
[20:05] Zei: There's been talk about Ron's character becoming somewhat more developed during this season. Will he graduate from the "sidekick" roll into more of a "partner" type of position?
[20:06] Steve: Yeah, I think there's some development for Ron. Certainly by the 2 parter.
[20:06] Zei: Second: Will most of the new episodes make references to past episodes?
[20:07] Steve: Well, we try to have continuity as much as we can. There may be some other references.
[20:07] anitrain: MGFanJay: What inspired you to start your career in animation?
[20:08] Steve: Simply put, I was inspired by films like Star Wars and Blade Runner.
[20:09] anitrain: Does anyone on the cast want to do a live action movie anymore if given the chance?
[20:09] anitrain: *cast/crew
[20:09] Steve: Um, not sure. I never really thought about it or talked with anyone in the cast about it.
[20:09] binski: Note: I have very few questions coming to me. If you send them to me I can get them in the queue sooner...
[20:09] binski: CarbonF: I was under the impression that Camile was going to be some kind of pop star and yet she's more of an Heiress, was I mistaken?
[20:10] Steve: She was always meant to be an heiress.
[20:10] morefood2001: 2 questions
[20:10] morefood2001: 1: Personal question: how many times does Wayne appear in person for S4?
[20:10] anitrain: Wade.
[20:10] morefood2001: wade
[20:11] morefood2001: sorry
[20:11] Steve: Wade is in the season alot.
[20:11] morefood2001:
[20:11] morefood2001: 2. Rippy: 2 part question: Since the senior table is now gone, isn't this year in school basically the same for Kim and Ron as their Junior year? why was an attempt made to make it the same?
[20:11] Steve: No, there's defeintley 'senior' differences.
[20:12] wallaceb: 2 questions
[20:12] wallaceb: [20:09] nabusan: An online article revealed that Ron's baby sister had a greater destiny linked to the secret ninja school Ron went to in 'Exchange'. Will this storyline effect the two-part finale?
[20:12] Steve: Actually that story is concluded in an event right before the 2 parter.
[20:12] wallaceb: second
[20:13] wallaceb: [19:50] Zoro: hey can you ask him if we'll get a reaction from shego and drakken from ron and kim dating.
[20:13] Steve: Yes,from Shego at least.
[20:13] Zei: Two questions...
[20:13] Zei: One, can you tell us what Ron's sister's name going to be?
[20:14] Steve: Hana
[20:14] binski: Does she sing? (sorry... couldn't resist)
[20:14] Zei: Two, At the Gathering of the Gargoyles, the animatic of "Ill-Suited" that you showed there had Kim kissng Ron on the lips after she asks him "You okay, so called boyfriend?". Unfortunately, that didn't happen in the finished episode. Why was it cut?
[20:15] Steve: I cut it for time.
[20:15] anitrain: From Tucsoncoyote: If there were to be additional villains, could there be a second rival to Dementor and Drakken?
[20:16] Steve: By rival I assume you mean bigger and meaner. If so, yes.
[20:16] binski: VRWC: Question: Will Ron's being on the football team make any more appearances this season?
[20:16] Steve: Yes
[20:16] morefood2001: If there were a Season 5, would there be any more villains added to Kim and Ron's List?
[20:17] Steve: Not thinking past season 4 !
[20:17] wallaceb: 2 questions
[20:17] wallaceb: [20:12] MrPotty: Was the line with the shark in the end credits of 'Ill-Suited' directed to someone special? Maybe the people from the 'Yes On 87'-campaign?
[20:17] Steve: To all the naysayers!
[20:17] wallaceb: question 2
[20:17] wallaceb: [20:13] JohnnyS: In Season 4, will Kim be making a trip to South East Asia? (i.e. Malaysia)
[20:18] Steve: Nope, sorry.
[20:18] RonStoppable: And as I said before... she did hit a squid with a rowboat once, so it wasn't that strange of a question...
[20:18] Zei: 2 questions...
[20:18] Zei: What kind of role do Jim and Tim play in future episodes? Will they be less annoying to Kim this season?
[20:19] Steve: We see more of Jim and Tim at the beginning of the season. Annoying is for you to deceide!
[20:19] Zei: Two...
[20:19] * morefood2001 needs more questions. Wallace and Royce do also
[20:19] Zei: At the end of "So the Drama", Ron scares Drakken into saying his name instead of referring to him as "the buffoon". Will Ron's influence over Drakken there remain in Season 4 or will Ron give him what for if he refers to him other than by his real name again?
[20:20] Steve: Wow! Very few no comments and few questions! What's going on!?
[20:20] Zei: It's the end of the world as we know it
[20:20] Zei: But I feel fine.
[20:20] RonStoppable: We'll get right on that when the chats over...
[20:20] anitrain: Was anything note-worthy (other than that kissing scene) cut from Ill-Suited or the other three new episodes?
[20:21] Steve: Nah, Drakken and Ron are back to their usual selves.
[20:21] Steve: There was ALOT and I mean AAAALLLOTTTT cut out this season.
[20:21] anitrain: Can you give a few examples?
[20:22] Steve: All the animatics ran way too long. Sometimes five minutes. We had to eliminate sub-plots, characters appearances, just a ton of stuff. There was an entire sequence of Jim and Tim helping Ron get the supersuit in Ill Suited.
[20:23] binski: AstroHomeCom931: Well Ron cooking skills come to play in s4?
[20:23] Steve: Ha! Nope.
[20:23] morefood2001: do you have a "most fun" memory working with the cast/animators?
[20:23] morefood2001: nvm
[20:23] morefood2001: skip
[20:23] Steve: I think I answered that already.
[20:23] roycereece: [20:21] slicknickshady: I guess you could ask........Will there be at least one kiss on the lips this season? (I mean the worst he could say is no comment) lol.
[20:23] Steve: Of course.
[20:24] wallaceb: 3 questions
[20:24] wallaceb: [20:20] MrPotty: Has there been a guest star that you REALLY wanted to have but couldn't get?
[20:25] Steve: Sure, I've always wanted to work with the cast of Buffy The Vampire Slayer. I got Nick Brendon for Dragon, though. I picked out a GREAT voice for a villian this season , but was turned down because the actor was insulted to be asked to do tv!
[20:25] wallaceb: question 2:
[20:20] JohnnyS: Will the two-parter finale have an all-star guest cast like ASiT?
[20:26] Steve: I think I answered that already, too.
[20:26] wallaceb: question 3:
[20:21] Tucsoncoyote: besides Shego and Camille now are there any chances of a new female villainess besides these two? Also.. whatever happened to Adrena-lynn?
[20:26] Steve: Yes, Warmonga. I'm sorry but I won't even put Adrena in a group shot.
[20:27] Zei: LOL. Sorry, that was just kinda funny.
[20:27] Steve: Dont expect Avarius, either!
[20:27] anitrain: Will Felix make a reappearance this season?
[20:27] Steve: Yes
[20:27] binski: Liokaiser: 1.) Will Ron get to be play Hero Boy again? 2.) If Disney asked do you think you, Bob, and Marc would work on a Kim Possible Comic?
[20:28] Steve: Man, I hope someone fixes all my misspelling!
[20:28] Steve: 1. Yes and 2. Yes.
[20:29] morefood2001: We've heard there will be a new, serious villian, could you tell us about him/her and perhaps what inspired the idea?.
[20:29] Steve: Well, it would be giving too much away, but we wanted a villian that was a real threat. No funny clownish behavior, just evil.
[20:30] wallaceb: 2 questions
[20:30] wallaceb: [20:18] Avenger: to follow up Tucsoncoyote's query: Will that bigger, meaner villain be me? MWAHAHAHAHA! (you don't really have to ask him that)
[20:30] Zei: And Disney let you? LOL. Sorry, you don't have to answer that.
[20:30] wallaceb: [20:23] nabusan: Will Kim be wearing new mission clothes this season, and if so - will it be permanent?
[20:30] Steve: Check out Am Drag- Homecoming to see what I mean.
[20:31] wallaceb: [20:21] slicknickshady: I guess you could ask........Will there be at least one kiss on the lips this season? (I mean the worst he could say is no comment) lol.
[20:31] Zei: ...already asked, Wallace.
[20:31] Steve: Next question, please. (sorry!)
[20:31] Zei: Okay...
[20:31] Zei: Two questions.
[20:32] Zei: One...
[20:32] Zei: Will this season bring to light Kim's dads feelings now that Kim and Ron are "together"? Will there be a 'father to boyfriend' chat?
[20:32] Steve: Sort-of. Later in the season.
[20:32] Zei: Two...
[20:32] Zei: How many episodes will Yori be in?
[20:33] Steve: 2 episodes. 'Big Bother' and 'Oh No Yono!'
[20:33] anitrain: What can you tell us about episode title for Season 4, "Odds Man In"?
[20:34] Steve: It's about Ron's dad, the actuary calculating the odds of Kim and Ron's survival.
[20:34] binski: CarbonF: 8. Are you pleased with the results of the animation so far? It seems that Kim's face has more of a round apperance than it had in Season 3.
[20:34] Steve: Wellllll....mostly pleased. Mostly.
[20:34] morefood2001: 2 questions
[20:34] morefood2001: getting back to the evil rival issue, what about smarter and meaner?
[20:34] morefood2001: Do you have much (if any) input on the writing content of each episode, or are you just much more comfortable drawing 'dem pretty pictures?
