To all who've replied, whether for or against the show... thanks for the input. I knew this was going to be a tough forum and you've lived up to the rep. For those of you who are behind the concept, please feel free to jump on the bandwagon and show your support by forwarding the links onto your friends. For those of you who are against, no, you can't get a refund on the time you spent reading about it... sorry.

Blue skies,

PTWOB106 out.

You seem to take rejection well. You'll do fine in Hollyweird. Nil desperandum.

Well, I thought it was fun. SA WARNING: This is an example of the price you might pay when you start a thread on your third post. It WAS fun!

Dozer (and the rest),

Rejection is my middle name... after all, you've got to embrace what you've got.

As for the show, you all should know with tremendous pride that you truly are the most difficult forum I've encountered... but what else should one expect from a crowd like this?

By the way, that last comment is copywritten... probably going to use it in another show, which I'm sure you'll love.

PTWOB106 out.

For what it's worth, my son's Godfather went to Aluminum U. And, I've done time in Hollywood.

Honestly, good luck! At least it's not a Reality Show.

Sir, I would like to shake the Olive Branch extended my way and say a sincere "Thanks." I know that takes a lot of courage in this crowd, but it should be commended. As a former Aluminum U guy-turned Army guy, I get both sides... a lot.

Hopefully when the show comes out, you'll watch (along with all the haters of the game).

p.s. new vitriol is welcome at this point!

Fine. Don't call me Sir!

No. It makes me feel old. And that makes me grumpy.

Hey, I wanna be Corporal Agarn or the Chief of the Hekawis. Oops...wrong show...but similar script.

Aluminum U - tin-foil hat alum, huh. Zoom...zoom...zoom.

Good luck with the project. No, seriously. And, if you can't take my suggestion to at least find a recurring guest role for H.M. "Howling Mad" Murdoch from the "A Team" (Dwight Shultz is probably still around for those cameos.), at least take Dozer's suggestion about the "top heavy" female navigator! That one IS gold!

By the way, great quote at the end of your post. And aside from oversized female navigators (which I'm sure would be fun), I've currently got Marisa Miller lined up as "Mason's girlfriend". So, if having an SI and Victoria's Secret Covergirl lined up sucks, I'm sorry... don't know what to do about that.
