Just watched this again after a bunch of years. It's really fun to see it. We created this in a very short amount of time. But it came out pretty well.
I can see YEARS of story lines - on a half hour sit com!!!! But it should have that feeling of "Oh - yeah - I remember them - I think"!!! Sort of a take off on a real 1970's one hit wonder group!!!
Thanks, Earthlinked. We did pitch it and nothing came of it, so now it's online here at Youtube for everyone to enjoy. We were kinda going for an 80's one hit wonder band, but there is a touch of 70s in there too for sure. But thanks for recognizing what we worked hard to achieve: we wanted to pitch a show that looked like it would have years of fun story lines to look forward with plenty of character conflict.
I'm with Pilot Lite a festival for independent television - we were wondering if you ever completed a full length (17-24 minute) version of your show? If so we'd love to talk with you about featuring it in our upcoming festival with a deadline on June 1st!
Hey Skatman, Thanks for your comments on One Hit Wonders. We thought The Frizz was a good name for a fictitious 80's band. We also have an outtake called "White Boy Beat It" that you might enjoy...or not.
I regret to inform you the answer is no, I did not make it on to FX. We were crushed. We've been in depression for a year now. Sigh. But thanks for asking.
Thanks, Macubas. We had fun making this video. Brought back some skinny tie and parachute pants memories for us, too. I'm delighted to finally get a comment on this video. We posted this back in June, geez. :)
This is so much fun! And it resonates with me... while I was never a "wonder" the 80s were, for better or for worse, the decade in which I grew up. I loved this video!

Thanks, Czerwony45. We thought it had potential as a tv show pilot. We didn't win.

Well - keep the faith - the script for Forest Gump bounced around Hollywood for 5 or 6 years!!!!!

What's really strange is that I just watched Forest Gump again yesterday before I got your comment. How fun is that?
