I think this show would be very hard to pitch to a big network. They know that they have an overwhelming number of highly impressionable miss-informed christians as viewers, and wouldn't want to offend any of them, and take the chance of loosing a few viewers. They fail to see the gains of getting viewers like us.
Did you get inspiration from Hungryman Entertainment Production's "Good God" that is one of the Comedy Central webshows. It also has an office environment with God & a Heavenly staff.
Thats true i was writing a script for a movie (just for fun) that was very similar to NBC's "the office" about a company that makes and ships crayons i was going to call it the office but 3 months into the writing, the office debuted on TV and i changed the title, then later just stopped writing the script.
try pitching it to the uk...the bbc might actually be interested...they often let a lot of new directors and unconventional material have a go, as it were...
The US has become a third-world nation in respect to religious fanaticism/delusion. Our powerful Christian Taliban would never permit public viewing of anything of humor in association with their very serious god.
Until the US rejects this superstitious nonsense, you would surely be able to get a TV broadcast deal with nearly any of the other industrialized nations with a majority of the population that know relgion is a nonsensical fool's game and are today socially and technologically leaving the US in their dust while we proceed on our trip back to the bronze age.
I just ran accross this today and watched all 6 episodes. I think that its great and a wonderful commentary. Very creative. I hope that you can make it to TV
That's so awesome! God, Inc. is by far my favorite series on Youtube, every episode is just top notch. Can't wait to see Erf! either! Hope everything goes well and we'll see a trailer soon! Best of luck and keep up the GREAT work :)
Try this... "It's 'The Office' meets 'Office Space', set in Heaven... kind of like 'Murder She Wrote'" look at their dumbfounded faces (beat) "What? Don't you GET it?" As bizarre as that sounds, it works, because EVERYONE GETS 'MURDER SHE WROTE'!!!!
This is really great i hope this can be soon on tv (with longer episodes) u r doing a great job, i hope Tv channels can realiza that u got sumthing big going on.
Hey spilledmilkfilms. "ERF!" is on a slight delay because of the possibility of getting some producers on board, which would be good in some ways but also makes things go slower. As well as the usual crap that delays things. I'm editing a teaser trailer now and should have it up shortly.
OMG! Could you imagine the uproar in teh religous community if this were on tv? I'm a Christian and all but hell everyone can take a laugh at their own religion once in a while. God HImself obviously has a sense of humor or he probably woulnt've made ugly people lol.
Ah, they can take it. With all the crap they make others who aren't exactly like them go through? If they can't take a joke, that's their problem. All the popularity here just shows- this is what most people WANT! ;-)
I was so happy to see that Comedy Central picked you up on Motherlode... And of course, by picked up I mean completely had your underlying premise blatantly ripped off and titled GOOD GOD. You are much funnier by the way.
Ha - thank you. Yes, I know about "Good God", although I've never seen it. It was a failed pilot that CC put on the web, and I found out about it shortly after I uploaded the first episode of "God, Inc". "God, Inc" has actually been on Motherlode as well!
It seems to me like Comedy Network (in Canada) or Fox would pick up. Maybe try pitching it in Canada. We have a lot of viewers up here, you'd start a fan base, and then USA can get syndication?
i love this series. its nice to see smart videos with some kind of message. i would love to see god inc as an actual television show. right as i was going to mention dead like me i saw it on someones previous comment. this series made me immediately think of dead like me.
I cant believe that the networks you have pitched to have no vision or sense of humor to snap up your God Inc "show". I can only think that they maybe scared of any show that refernces "God".
God Inc, seriously is the best thing ive seen on or off TV in many years.
what's really ironic is that I saw this show before ever seeing dead like me. Now I've watched and enjoyed every last episode of that show. hope you make it and replace that awesome (and now canacelled) program!
Actually, even though people frequently compared them, I'd never seen it myself. I just watched the pilot for the first time yesterday - what a terrific show!
i love that fx guy he is so cute >< anyway i hope u guys actually do get god inc. up on a network that would be totally awesome thanks for the upload!
Definitely try contacting the BBC and Channel 4 in the UK. You'll be able to do so much more with the script because we Brits don't really believe in anything any more!
Yeah - That's right, sell out on us why don't you! I mean what will you need us for when your hollywood mansion sits on network exec's row. When you become one of them, just remember that you were once one of us. When the show is syndicated world-wide I am particually looking forward to Budda Inc (The tale of a fat man who lies about in front of daytime TV) and Mohammed Inc (an inflammatry cartoon series where, Mohammed who is down to his last 1000 virgins seeks a new public relations drive).
Highly enjoyable. I particularly liked the diminution of miracles and the increase in natural disasters. Good script - characterisation, good acting and good photography. Have you thought of asking BBC in England? Best wishes, David
keep it up dude... be you have to remember the mainstream media might not be ready for this sort of comedy. however, i find it very funny. i can't wait to see the next opposide.
I absolutely love your show, much better than the office and more original. Please keep up the pitches to the networks! With all the crap out there, something good like this HAS to make it.
Who can we lobby? I'd love to see God Inc go network. Don't degrade God Inc by comparing it to The Office -- you're much better! BTW, good training of the dog! He stole the scene.
Awesome, I hope you make it on to the networks. I just love your series. If it can't make it on broadcast tv keep making the series for this channel. I enjoy your series.
hope you can get it on TV and also put it on youtube. can't wait for Earth, oh btw, can u put Earth on youtube under ur current username? that be great, thx
Good luck with God Inc. Your show is fantastic, and speaking as someone who works in television, I think it's got balls, man! BTW - The 'Fox' dog is great too!
I wish you all the best! It would be great to replace all the crap thats on TV at the moment with some quality viewing. Good luck.. and cant wait to see your new show too. Any hints as to whats it about???
not yet. still writing it. But I'll post a trailer in a few weeks. And I have two shorts, one I just filmed and one I made almost ten years ago, that I'm posting in the meantime.
what a coincidence...honestly, I clicked your channel to unsubscribe heh, but then I saw your video and now want to wish you good luck. cute dog btw. did Fox really leave or was that not to be seen as a literal message?
thanks for the update, i was beginning to think that god was really going to rest on the 7th... but im glad to hear more is in the making. your show is hilarious and youre a great writer.
Good luck. I hope you have some success with the networks. And if they haven't got the sense to take you on, please come back to youtube. You are ALWAYS welcome here.
Please come to australia and get it made with SBS, they love original comedy, look at the series Wilfred which was a one-off TropFest festival short that became a 6 ep run.
Please please please please please please please please please please please please please don't go anywhere near Fox. It'll be canceled before it's ever made and then imprisoned in red tape and other bumfuckery.
cheers and heres to miracles! you have created the funniest thing that i have ever enjoyed on the net (and the tube as well). keep the creativity flowing.
I'd be more worried about Hollywood (Networks) touching God, Inc. They'll hurt it more than help it IMO. A shame it cant stay within the realm of the Internet. There would be less creative control loss that way. Less compromising of integrity. But its your decision. I understand money and resources have to come from somewhere. Good luck
Thank you for the update and I wish you good luck on getting God, Inc sold. I know that the show/idea being awesome isn't all that it takes to get it picked up, but it can't hurt. I'll be sending happy vibes for this to be a success for you. Thank you for the entertainment so far!
Surprisingly, that hasn't really come up. Although we've been very aware of that aspect of it - as someone in the comments suggested, we've been emphasizing the number of people of faith who have really embraced the show...
Cool! I hope you get picked up. The way network TV's ratings have been dropping, they need to become a little more edgy and willing to take chances. Let me just throw out that I'm an atheist and I hope the show doesn't devolve into a lame "Highway to Heaven" type show. Good Luck!!!!!
Hey, thanks for the update, I was going into withdrawals. I swear, this IS funnier than Dead Like Me - sorry to keep making that comparision, but "Dead" is so well written and acted, I can't help myself. - Good luck pitching and go "bowl" them over!!!!
I'm so escited for your new show; what you have done so far is brilliant and I'm sure this will be the same! Not to put pressure on anyone (that's not meant sarcastically). And good luck pitching it to TV stations! They are missing a big chance if they don't take your ideas.
Hi Francis, thanks for this. I managed to be one of the first 5,000 to see episode 1, which doesn't sound that great until you think how many people actually watched it, and have been laughing out loud ever since. Good to hear that a new project is underway and that progress of a sort is underway with tv poppets. I'm sure we'll get to see it over here in Blighty by about 2012.
Thank you for the update. I think it may help in your pitch to the studios if you express that the show is popular online with religious and non-religious people. The scripts seem so sincere, with just a dash of sarcasm. =)

Hey, why isn't there an annual YouTube awards ceremony?
If they gave out "Tubies", the dog gets my vote as best TV studio chowderhead.

Please come to australia and get it made with SBS, they love original comedy, look at the series Wilfred which was a one-off TropFest festival short that became a 6 ep run.

Please please please please please please please please please please please please please don't go anywhere near Fox. It'll be canceled before it's ever made and then imprisoned in red tape and other bumfuckery.

I'd be more worried about Hollywood (Networks) touching God, Inc. They'll hurt it more than help it IMO. A shame it cant stay within the realm of the Internet. There would be less creative control loss that way. Less compromising of integrity. But its your decision. I understand money and resources have to come from somewhere. Good luck

good luck with that, it would be a great show. And the video angles aren't as obnoxious as the office.

To be true I can only imagine God Inc made at BBC...I don't know which american station will face this kind of humour...
Anyway I hope it will be soon on TV. Thank you for great idea and fantastic episodes - I'll be here waiting for good news!
Good luck!

Thank you for the update and I wish you good luck on getting God, Inc sold. I know that the show/idea being awesome isn't all that it takes to get it picked up, but it can't hurt. I'll be sending happy vibes for this to be a success for you. Thank you for the entertainment so far!

Good luck with this! Have you been hindered by the networks being worried about religious groups being upset?
imrational 4 years ago
Surprisingly, that hasn't really come up. Although we've been very aware of that aspect of it - as someone in the comments suggested, we've been emphasizing the number of people of faith who have really embraced the show...
francisstokesdotcom 4 years ago
Cool! I hope you get picked up. The way network TV's ratings have been dropping, they need to become a little more edgy and willing to take chances. Let me just throw out that I'm an atheist and I hope the show doesn't devolve into a lame "Highway to Heaven" type show. Good Luck!!!!!

Hey, thanks for the update, I was going into withdrawals. I swear, this IS funnier than Dead Like Me - sorry to keep making that comparision, but "Dead" is so well written and acted, I can't help myself. - Good luck pitching and go "bowl" them over!!!!

Funny thing is that I've never actually seen "Dead Like Me". I just found the first season on DVD used for $10, so I'll be watching it very soon...

I'm so escited for your new show; what you have done so far is brilliant and I'm sure this will be the same! Not to put pressure on anyone (that's not meant sarcastically). And good luck pitching it to TV stations! They are missing a big chance if they don't take your ideas.
Again, I love what you have done sofar!!

francisstokesdotcom 4 years ago
Hi Francis, thanks for this. I managed to be one of the first 5,000 to see episode 1, which doesn't sound that great until you think how many people actually watched it, and have been laughing out loud ever since. Good to hear that a new project is underway and that progress of a sort is underway with tv poppets. I'm sure we'll get to see it over here in Blighty by about 2012.
Cheers,

Thank you for the update. I think it may help in your pitch to the studios if you express that the show is popular online with religious and non-religious people. The scripts seem so sincere, with just a dash of sarcasm. =)
