But every single one was well worth the time and energy it took to create it: both for the realization of the story I needed to tell, for the practice of the craft, for the experience of having written, and for the doors (however small) they might've helped inch open. Some have sold, some have been published/produced. Toss in an uncountable number of short stories, articles and a few novels.
As for me, I've written countless scripts. S: If only the world worked that way: you write your first script, mail it off, and win first place in Scriptapalooza. Is this your first script that you have written? In other words, it took me about a year and a half to convince Jeremy to co-write the damned thing. Once we started writing, I think we had the pilot, treatment, and first season episode outline done in about four months. S: I came up with the concept about two years ago, pitched it to Jeremy, and we let it germinate (or, as we call it, Jeremy-ate) for a while. From there, the stories just seemed to write themselves. I came up with the ever-on-the-verge-of-catastrophe TRN (The World's first all-reality television network) and Jeremy helped fill it with interesting, eclectic (and perhaps most importantly) dysfunctionally loveable (and hate-able) characters.

I wanted to capture that essence in fiction, in dramatic comedy (Jeremy hates the term dramedy), or more accurately, the new pseudo-hybrid improvisational fiction that people like Larry David and Fred Goss are pioneering. But more poignantly, I've noticed a real polarity in the fans of the genre: people either love Reality TV or they hate it. Writer on TLC's (The Learning Channel) show Dead Tenants and I was head of development for a successful Reality TV production company). Well, let me clarify that: I'm a fan of reality TV in much the same way that I enjoy infomercials-not because I'm in the market for a new bread machine or Bowflex, but because there's some dynamic there, some strange cultural appeal that's almost indefinable. Scott: I've always been a fan of reality television.
