People describe the differences from Burning Man in this show as errors, but I don't think they were. The writers had clearly been to Burnng Man, and got it. I think that the things they made different they made so deliberately, either as jokes or for hollywood plot reasons, not because they didn't know better.

They told the story they wanted to tell, the jokes they wanted to, including some burning man in-jokes the rest of the audience won't get, using burning man as an inspiration. I doubt you could expect more. Have you ever seen a sitcom version of _anything_ that wasn't changed from the reality for various reasons? This is MitM after all, a deliberately surreal show. Used to be the best comedy on TV though it's on the way down now.

We saved it on the DVR, I have to play it again and pay careful attention to stuff going on in the background, I will bet there are a few special treats in there someplace.

I was waiting to hear someone in the background say "Do you know who I am?"

The stones were coming from up to 20 miles away. That comes up late in the show. I snaped a pic of the banana car this year. It was parked across from DMV. One guy from that camp was taking pics of wierd cars. Asked if he could shoot me on my strange bike. They had some good camera. I want my ashes spred like that.

Posting a link to the file might be a bad idea, but if one were to say, use some kind of search engine to find "Malcolm.In.The.Middle.S07E01.HDTV.XviD-TV.avi"; one may do allright.
