I thought I'd tell you all about our experience at the casting call. But first, a question...does anyone have a sense of how long (if lucky enough) until you hear back from producers about an interview? Just curious.

The event in Lewisville, TX (just north of Dallas) started at 8:30 AM. We got there at 7:30, and we were the 117th team in line. It seemed discouraging but once you started meeting other teams and talking, the time went by relatively quickly. There were three rooms for the videotaping. No questions, no interviews...just videotaping. First there was someone to ensure you had everything that you were supposed to bring. Then you waited in a holding area until your number was called. You get into yet another line, then finally are taken into a private room for the videotaping. Being team # 117, we finished and left at 11:45 AM, so all told we waited in line for just over 3 hours. And there were many teams behind us. I estimate the total number of teams at around 250-300.

It was fascinating, but not informational. We really didn't get any more information about the entire casting process than what we knew beforehand.
