I noticed you tagged a post with "rain scandal". Can you tell me what that is? Thanks!Anonymous
Sure! Actually, after I posted it, I changed it to “rain fiasco.” (I just started tagging it, so there might be other relevant posts back in the archive…)
Basically it’s when David went on Conan O’Brien and made a joke about how much it rains in Vancouver. Then the local press made a fuss about it, and some random guy “banned” DD from a nightclub he’d never been to, and lots of Vancouverites got the idea that DD was this whiney American actor who came to their city but couldn’t handle the weather. This was also around the time when David was pushing to move the show to LA (which subsequently happened). So ever since then, there’s been a dark cloud (haaaa) hanging over the subject of David, Vancouver, and/or rain. It still comes up in press a lot.
