Valerie Landsburg, Official MGM Press release biography for season 1 of Fame.
Which Fame Song Does The Lyric "And you’ll wake one Morning Just to find Your Courage Gone." Come from?
Replying to Michael Cerveris' Facebook post on the Final episode of "Fame" Producer Michael McGreevey revealed there was a Deleted Subplot featuring Ian, Bruno and Shorofsky which was filmed but not broadcast.
Michael said:
"This post brought tears to my eyes, Michael. Thanks for the shout out. FAME was a wonderful experience for me. And the character of Ian Ware was one of my favorite creations - you brought him to life better than I ever could have imagined. My only regret about the last show is that I had written a lovely subplot for Ian, Bruno and Shorofsky. You guys did a wonderful job realizing it on film, but Debbie Allen's Director's Cut of the episode was almost 20 minutes too long. We tried to convince MGM to air the finale as a 90 minute Special, but the syndication contracts prohibited any episode over 60 minutes. Debbie and I were heartbroken, but the powers-to-be forced us to cut that great subplot. I think Debbie kept a copy of her cut. If you ever meet up with her again, you might ask her to share it with you."
