@ LiSi :

"Who ever said Dan doesn't know what is going to happen?"

Um ... It might have been me who started that ... I'm not sure ...

For the record, I never said that Dan Schneider doesn't know what's going to happen on the show, although he might not have worked out all of the episode-to-episode specifics in advance.

I just said that there is always a chance that one or more of his writers will pitch an idea that he hadn't previously thought of, and that Dan Schneider might be persuaded by his staff to take the storyline in a different direction than he had originally planned. I don't know how likely it is, but it's always possible.

When I made that point (in a blog), I just meant that even Dan Schneider can't know for certain what tomorrow will bring. No matter how set he is in his vision for the show, there's always a chance that somebody will bring a new perspective to the table and change his mind. Nothing is impossible.
