Sitcom Mission

The Selected Few

By: Harinder Dhillon

Sitcom Mission 2010 finalist

Harry and Sophie are just your modern day, average, mixed-race couple that know what they want, and hate what they don't. Together since their school days, they've managed to maintain a relationship without realising exactly how and why. Neurotic? Check. Uncompromising? Check. Cosmically drawn together, they are The Selected Few.

Harry is not exactly a "people person", but he loves to make people laugh. As a student he discovered the works of Bill Hicks, George Carlin, Woody Allen and Larry David, beginning his love affair with comedy. His holy trinity of sitcoms you ask? Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Arrested Development.
