[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
Now that's what I call results.
Good job, Tim. Your podcast is mighty.
Now go buy Jane Espenson a cookie.
Okay, maybe it really was Tim's podcast. He mentioned quarterlife and I just got this email:
Series Pick Up Alert
Network: NBC
Genre: Drama
Title: quarterlife
Studio: quarterlife, inc
Commitment: Series Pick Up (6 Episodes)
Auspices: Marshall Herskovitz (D-Pilot, EP, W-Pilot), Edward Zwick (EP, W-Pilot), Joshua Gummersall (P N/W)
Logline: A one-hour series created from episodes of the MySpaceTV.com series that takes on the crucial years between 20 and 30, when so many of life’s important decisions are made. The “quarterlife” series tells the ongoing stories of six creative people in their twenties. As with Herskovitz’s and Zwick’s earlier television series, at the center of “quarterlife” is a commitment to realism, the recognition of universal human themes through the truthful depiction of the way young people speak, work, think, love, argue, and just goof around. Starting with Dylan, a young woman whose overly truthful video blog (on quarterlife.com of course) spills the closest secrets of her friends, the show’s characters – filmmakers Danny and Jed, actress-bartender Lisa, geek-extraordinaire Andy, and still-tied-to-her-parents Debra – chart the sometimes excruciating, sometimes comic, often emotional experiences that comprise coming of a! ge as part of the digital generation.
Notes: quarterlife runs as 36 8-minute episodes that premiere every Thursday and Sunday.on MySpace, quarterlife.com, and is also available on YouTube, Facebook, Imeem and Bebo. Series Premiere Date: Early 2008. Originally developed at ABC for the 2005-2006 and 2006-2007 seasons. In addition to airing quarterlife as a second run on NBC television network, it will be streamed on NBC.com and NBC will become a distribution partner, helping with DVD and foreign sales. Series is privately financed and owned by Edward Zwick, Marshall Herskovitz and other investors.
Tim is the cutest cutiehead in cutietown.
We should have asked him to mention us. Maybe we would have found a winning lottery ticket or something.
I can't find the podcast. woe. I think my Internet-fu is broken. (I blame the AMPTP.)
I think they just uploaded it. Try here now.
Oh, sure. The link to fans4writers goes up, and that same day they set a date to negotiate? Coincidence?
