Bad News From A Producer Page 2

I just got the same thing through.

He said he liked them but he gets so much material in he wasn't going to take it any further.

Now, while it's good he read them I seriously doubt he'd ever bring anyone in on the strength of sketches. Just my opinion.

I got my bad news today also. He did ask for more sketches though, which I duly sent.

Doesn't sound like bad news!

Well, turning down the five sketches I sent didn't exactly give me cause for celebration. I am happy to be taken seriously enough to be given a second chance though.

Don't hide your light under a Bussell.

F**k yeah, I'm a comedy writer all right!

I take we're all talking about the same producer? Or are we not?

All producers have trained monkeys answering posts from unsolicited writers

Usually I get feaceses, banana skins, and hair.

Why they send me the My Family scripts, I don't know.

Arf arf!

Would it be out of order for me to ask who this producer is, and if he's still looking for material?

I'll take that as a 'no' then!

Well I have been looking at all the credits on everything lately and I still haven't seen A or B. So maybe they are not very succesfful anyway.
