Oh god oh god oh god I hope I'm early enough to ask!

Burnie I've loved Red vs Blue since it debuted, but I've really enjoyed the Achievement Hunter stuff, how come we don't ever (or rarely ever) see you show up? I'd love a Burnie Heist in GTA!

Dino didn't answer this, but perhaps I can field this one for him. According to the Wikipedia page for Morel Orel, this was the intended idea for future episodes and season 4. I believe all this came from the writers and Dino's mouth, but I can't actually find too much more on this. What I do find all points to the same thing, so I assume this was the intended direction.

According to Dino Stamatopoulos in the commentary for the series finale, there were seven finished episode scripts that Adult Swim chose not to produce due to their decision to cancel the series/roll back the number of season three episodes from 20 to 13. It was suggested that Adult Swim might be willing to make a "Moral Orel special" of some sort in the future, but Stamatopolous stated that he declined the offer in favor of moving onto other projects, resulting in the creation of "Honor" as a series finale for the character.

Had the show not been cancelled and cut down to 13 episodes, the show's second half would have played out quite differently:

• Orel's paternal grandfather would have joined the cast, having shown up in an episode that takes place following the events of "Sacrifice", while Clay went to retrieve the body of the dead bear Orel shot. Most of the later half of the season would focus on Orel's relationship with his dying grandfather, who would help further Orel's emotional growth into adulthood and help Orel reconcile his faith with the realities of life. Other aborted plotlines would involve Orel's father's affair with Miss Censordoll and Bloberta's affair with Officer Papermouth, culminating in the death of Orel's grandfather and Orel's transformation into a goth-type figure in the wake of the death of the only good parental figure in his life.

Some of the aborted episodes involve:

• Clay Puppington's father, after finding out that he was terminally ill, moved in with the Puppingtons and was forced to share a room and bed with Orel.

• Bloberta and Officer Papermouth becoming lovers, with Bloberta finally achieving happiness through her relationship with the divorced police officer

• A second episode involving Orel and Christina's relationship

• Reverend Putty becoming cold and distant towards women following the events of "Sunday"/"Sacrifice", resulting in him finally gaining dates with women of Moralton, while Florence loses her weight and becomes slim and thin; Reverend Putty ironically finds himself attracted to the now-thin Florence but ultimately comes around to winning her heart.

• Miss Sculptham's further attempts to find love, including a lesbian relationship and one with a prisoner, both of which end badly due to Moralton society frowning upon each relationship and refusing to allow the teacher to marry either lover (a denial that she compares to having been raped); Miss Sculptham also discovers that she was actually pregnant with twins due to her rape and that her coathanger abortion only killed one of the two unborn children within her.

• An episode focusing on Shapey and Block, where the two unruly kids bond with each other and as a result, become less hellion-like.

• Orel becoming a Christian Goth following the death of his grandfather.

There is also another lost episode titled "Abstinence", animated entirely by David Tuber and Mick Ignis, two of the production staff of Moral Orel, that was finished after they learned the show had been canceled. The episode is rendered in a somewhat cruder than normal style using clay figures since the animators did not have access to the puppets normally used to create each episode. The episode centers around Doughy instead of Orel, and was only screened once at a special live event, "Sunday with Moral Orel" in San Francisco on January 18, 2009.

I've never been emotionally invested in a comment chain before...

I'm turning 31 in July how long does the application remain up before it's closed?

Sounds like I might be out of luck if it stays up more than a month.

So I might get really lucky and squeeze in. Well then you've given me some hope, thanks!
