While there's definitely some interesting behind-the-scenes stories and details that will intrigue fans, a lot of this book will be unsurprising for those who are already familiar with the series. What's more, there are several typos and canon errors throughout (for example, a season one episode has two different dates attached to it, and the book lists the wrong episode as the introduction of children's abilities to see Al).
Come for the interviews and production design details, leave during the episode synopses...
