WRITING THE "REVERSE INTERVENTION"

when we were together last it was decided that our "Hiccups" was to be a never to be seen pilot episode. I personally think it's fine (not half as good as the others, but the others are so good that half of em is still pretty good!) that being said, if the actors don't like their performances, there is nothing I can say to that no matter how much I try to convince them otherwise.

so I said I was going to write a new episode. after we kicked it around for a while, everyone agreed the idea of doing a reverse intervention would be pretty funny.

Kyle, James and I hung out for 20 mins after the meeting and beat out the story. easy! I told everyone I would have a draft out like the next day, cause I mean the beating was so easy!

WOOOOOOOOOOW. I got right to writing, but it just wasn't happening. A fews days past and nothing.

Today I sat down, not intending to write and it just all came out... and seems pretty ok. it needs to shed a few lines, but for the most part I'd go to camera with it!

it's the whole outside pov thing that I learned with "WOMD" (just so happens the spectator in that video is Jamie Parkhill (who plays K-Hype), he whiteness' a fight and gets sprayed with the blood from a ripped off arm)), have a character there who's totally out of their element and don't pay much attention to him until BAM, punch line. the punch line and subtleness of the character isn't as good as WOMD but it's still the same idea.

some of this stuff is starting to make sense.... but so much of it still does not!
