If you have Xfinity, eps 2 and 3 are already up Xfinity Go.

Yeah man. You're reviews are top notch. Keep it up.

Thanks guy and gal. Put up a review of Rockets' Red Glare. Like they used to say on the "In Loving Color" skit...Hated it!

Hello Ladies is great fun and a fast read.

Thanks so much, Mike. Technically ours does have an attachment, Chris D'Elia. But I think andrewpwoodberry is probably referring to someone huge like Robert Downey Jr. or Will Ferrell.

It seems to me there are more comedy pitches from established writers that are selling. Anyway, if you think you've got a funny concept don't let that stop you. I'm working on an action comedy now. If it's funny/good enough then hopefully top folks will attach.

You're not wrong, Andrew.

BTW #3 - Great mix of serialization and self-contained episode conflicts.

BTW #4 - I'm up to Emmy award winning episode "In Excelsis Deo". Great back and forth argument between co-writer Rick Cleveland and Aaron Sorkin over who deserved credit for episode here starting Nov 2000: http://www.westwingepguide.com/S1/Episodes/10_IED.html

BTW #5 - Interesting how Rob Lowe, Bradley Whitford and Allison Janney all ended up on network sitcoms in recent years.

Enjoyed it but I was surprised that the gun scene was played for humor and presented so nonchalantly. With all that has gone on in the last few years, that type of things just doesn't feel very funny anymore.

I didn't hate it. But I found some characters to be shallow/cliche & way too much pontificating instead of actual conversations. Would have been interesting to see same concept attempted as half hour comedy. Hour felt too long.

@andrewpwoodberry, great comments and I agree with all of them. Especially about some of the characters feeling too cliche and stereotypical.

quite a few interesting ones on there

Great, thanks.

Excellent news, well done chaps.

cheers guys!

Not surprised in the least, but delighted for you guys.

I think the problem is Lena Dunham is what HBO thinks is funny.

Y'all are crazy! Have you seen Barry?

Agree. HBO is under the impression that the rest of the country is as fascinated by the struggles of creative professionals trying to make it NY/LA as creative profesionals in NY/LA are.

Thanks for sharing this!

Steven's defense attorneys too, those guys were on point every step of the way

Thank god for those two decent and very competent men, otherwise I would have completely lost faith in mankind. Or at least the justice system.

Thanks.

Thanks Andrew.

Love this!!!

Sure.

Cool. Thanks.

I always thought Will would be good in this tennis comedy:

Looks like DEVILS AT PLAY, DRAFT DAY and scripts about SEUSS and Hilary Clinton are making the list. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324024004578173742359909344.html

BrianCD -- you mean a "low" placing would be a PR nightmare right? Because after all the touting of the script as proof that the BL site is a godsend - McCarthy HAS to place high for Franklin to be able to stand tall and say "See I told you" we found a script the whole town likes.

It's really a double edged sword. If it places really high or at all, he'll get a lot of "this guy paid/was an intern". People will doubt the honesty of the list (both Black and Hit anytime someone who paid anything shows up. At the same time, both need to prove they have a monetary value and scripts they push/discover showing up on their industry wide lists is a great marketing tool.

Things to love about Black Mirror: strong production design; exploring the intersection of sex, relationships and technology; an always satisfying and retrospectively inevitable conclusion; great musical score

New episodes being made on netflix next year

GO FOR IT!

YAAAY!

APW you are on fire.

ALRIGHT ALRIGHT I'LL READ THE DANG THING. (love your commentary in the thread btw)

Awesome!

Great script, glad to see it's going into production.
