 SPOILERS: In the series finale, during the funeral for Amanda  Woodward and Peter Burns, the entire writers office staff are  scattered among the extras in the audience, and featured prominently  in several shots. The shoot took an entire day under the sun on a  beach near Malibu. If you watch closely, you can see the extras in  the audience gradually turn redder. Also, the "ashes" accidentally  scattered at the end of the funeral were pulverized blue corn  tortilla chips.
