Thanks But No Thanks

The writer job for that crappy show came and went for me. I received an email from their producer saying "if you received this email we will not be hiring you." Well.

For some one with a huge ego like me, that was an insult. Rejection is always hard for me and everyone else. This how ever, is one of those situations where you, out of some sort of desperation, ask the "ugly girl" at the bar to dance, and she says "no". Now in my head I am singing The Monks, Nice Legs Shame About the Face.

When I applied for the show, they didn't name it, just described it. Even when I found out what the show was, it was a program I had never seen or even heard of. When I finally did watch my first episode, I had second thoughts about working on it.

Well that problem has been solved. Thank you very much. I would have been happy to make some money as a writer and to earn a TV credit as a writer, but as bad as the show is, maybe it was a blessing.

However, I may get the last laugh. As terrible as this show is, the concept is actually pretty good. I plan to steal the concept from them and develop its full potential. There is room for a The Larry Sanders Show format, using an entertainment reporter instead of a talk show host. With entertainment shows like TMZ, Access Hollywood, and Entertainment Tonight at their most popular, it would be good timing to have a parody of these programs.

So screw you.
