TV show pitch....
Friday, December 17, 2004 2:50 PM
Well it's all Mr Whedon's fault.I'd given up watching TV of any kind since Northern Exposure. Then he goes and makes Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Firefly and takes TV to a new level.
Three TV shows of such quality and accesibility that he's inspired myself and two friends to try and write one of our own.
So that's where we are, just a few days shy of having a pitch ready for the BBC. It's not easy this TV writing lark. When you start of with a blank canvas the possibilities are limitless, and we all have individual ideas of our own. But we've managed to find a format that all three of us love and things have come along wonderfully.
Of course we're under no allusions. There's a long way to go, and it'll be extremely difficult to keep our original idea in tact, but at least having a completed script is better than not having a completed script.
That's the impetus. The script. That now gives us something to approach the BBC with.
So there you go.
I'll keep things updated as they develop.
