And so...
Coming up next, the lies, the scandals, the heartbreak and betrayals that made filming Disney's Kim Possible "so the drama."
Ron: We were the best of friends for a long time, and I hope we can get back to that. But I'm not sure I'm ready to forgive her yet.
Mr Barkin: I'm sorry, I'm just not going talk about her any further.
Tara: If Ron hadn't dragged me to detox, or if he'd given up on me, I don't think I'd be here today.
Bonnie: I lost count of the number of times I dragged her out of a nightclub at four in the morning when we were filming the next day.
Ron: She put Larry in hospital for the focus on him in the last episode. It was all hushed up. Every time I saw "Yamanouchi" in the script, I feared for my life.

Bob the Mook: You would be surprised just how little of of Shego's dialogue was scripted. Most of it was simply leaving the camera rolling after we yelled cut. In most workplaces, you would spend as little time with someone you disliked, and could simply work around them professionally speaking.Shego and Drakken were together almost constantly. The long shooting times (we often finished after midnight) took that initial dislike, and twisted it into something approaching real hatred. It was hard to watch. The problem was that they were simply too popular to split up.
The writers tried keeping them apart, by putting Drakken in prison, or pairing Shego with Junior, but the ratings slumped. Executive orders came down, and that never helps.
I don't think they can even stay in the same room as each other now. As a friend, I really watched Drakken struggle with it. He really tried, and at least initially liked Shego. In the end.. I don't think he could have lasted another season.
I believe it was one of the reasons we couldn't continue with the show. It tore him up inside, watching the conflict between his own mental health, and his desire not to let down the rest of the cast.
Coming up next, on Behind the Impossible.. Ron and Kim were an on-screen couple, but off-screen, a sordid web of lies, betrayal and the revolving door of the so called "Kim Possible Casting Couch" drove their friendship apart.
Bonnie: I had been propositioned to get roles before you know. Even by the star of a show occasionally. Kim was the first time it had happened with a woman.
--- to commercial ---
Kim [smirks]: I don't know about that...
Ron: Her acting talent, Kim.
Does anyone have more inside dirt from behind the scenes?
