  Yet Christine Blasey Ford still came forward to tell us about Brett Kavanaugh, and Congress ignored the victim AGAIN.

  I haven’t seen the show, but my guess is that the script numbers the kids in order of appearance – because it would be really confusing to get stuff ready if they weren’t numbered in order of appearance. Imagine reading the script and seeing a first mention of the kids like:

  Ghoulish child #2 darts across the hall and disappears. You wonder, “Was there a #1?” Then you see more ghoulish kids on the pages: 4, 7, 1, 5. Are there numbers 2 and 3? 6 or 8? How many costumes do we need, and are theses kids going to appear together? Were some cut? Did the script editor forget something?

  If they are in order of appearance, then the kids with bigger/speaking parts might get higher billing, but they wouldn’t get earlier numbers since non-speaking/smaller parts appeared earlier.

  I was happily surprised there was a season 3 since they could have stopped at the end of season 2. I’m glad they didn’t. That said, the first two seasons had a more structured story line and I think it should have gotten awards then. Season 3 was good, but didn’t have the same cohesion. There were more stand-alone episodes. There’s nothing wrong with that, and I was happy to watch them all, but I can see where some people might feel it a weaker season because of that. Still, the show should have gotten more praise sooner.
