PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"On The Lot" |
This looks like a great show! It premieres on May 22nd.From the site: "From Mark Burnett, Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks Television, ON THE LOT affords aspiring filmmakers the opportunity of a lifetime: a $1-million DreamWorks development deal. And, 12,000 people submitted their films for consideration. ON THE LOT will feature filmmakers who will produce short films in every genre every week and the viewers will vote on who gets eliminated. The show will premiere with a one-hour auditions episode on Tuesday, May 22." I like this one.

Pessimist. Or would you just like to buy the rights to Forrest Gump?

LAST EDITED ON 05-23-07 AT 11:01 AM (EST)I missed parts of it while posting in the AI EC thread, but from what I did see, it looks interesting, but lacking excitement. Not a good start to draw a viewer base, imo. The initial weed-out to 36 contestants had an AI feel to it, clownish at times. They're now split up into 3 teams of 12 each, each team with one director having to make a short clip in just 24 hours - lots of pressure and you can already see a few personality clashes. A few people look like naturals; others look completely lost; some are into the personality clash thing. Coming up next will be the rest of the 1-day shoot & edit, probably a view of those, and then the results. I'm not sure how the format for elimination goes (I might check the site after this), so that might be interesting. I'm actually looking more forward to later episodes after they've weeded out at least half of the remaining contestants. There's not much to go on as yet. Foo dogs by tribe.

"... it looks interesting, but lacking excitement. Not a good start to draw a viewer base, imo."IMO, too, cahaya. I just said the exact same thing to a friend. I don't think the general population is going to stay tuned for much longer (if at all). Just cinephiles and the 12,000 applicants who didn't make the cut. (Including my close friend Damian, whose short-film entry can be viewed HERE.) Plus, Brett Ratner's pretty much the worst director of all time and watching him give advice ticks me off to NO end! OTOH, I have great respect for Carrie Fisher and Gary Marshall, so I guess Ratner is OTL's Paula Abdul. Emily's RugBlog

11. "May 22nd episode...the premiere" |
LAST EDITED ON 05-23-07 AT 09:33 AM (EST)I enjoyed it. I thought they scrapped 14 to make 36, but I am usually wrong. I loved the guy who did his pitch on the priest who falls in love right before he's supposed to be ordained. Oh, they guy who was over the top about the package at the neighbors....that guy lives within 15 miles of me....disappointed, to say the least. I love the mix of judges. My son who loves Star Wars couldn't believe that Carrie Fisher was Princess Lee-ah.

Putting out a pitch is a good way to weed out people in my book. Plus they had their 4 submitted tapes to view as well.You have to start with a story, and then make it come to fruition. Wish we could have heard more, but maybe they spared us! This next task is really going to rattle cages, so many contestants, so many styles, nobody knows anyone's talents....next week should give more perspectives about the contestants. I, too, like the guy with the children....rat/mouse story. I'll watch it as long as it doesn't interfere with Big Brother!!!

I watched and thought it was interesting. But there were way too many people to start with. I will enjoy it more when there are less people and we can get to know them.

LAST EDITED ON 05-24-07 AT 10:11 AM (EST)LAST EDITED ON 05-24-07 AT 10:08 AM (EST) Edit (looked closer at the futon critic summer schedule) Mondays is the one hour show Weds is a 1/2 hour (so I'm guessing some sort of elimination on that night?) They'll probably get to a once a week leaving thing as it is scheduled to go until August. ETA: From the On the lot official site It will be FOX viewers whose votes determine which film should be left on the cutting-room floor. On the next night's "Box Office" results show, the director whose feature garners the fewest votes will be sent home. These are just the audition rounds, which is why there are so many people. I don't think the whole season will try to have dozens of people on.

26. "Thursday's show" |
We get a look at a few teams efforts, with more tension as the 24-hour deadline nears and some teams discover that they have poor footage for the edit work. Three full clips are shown - the time-stopper one was pretty cool with the special effects of the two main characters convincingly moving around in a time-stopped world.Twelve went home, 24 remain. Among those cut were prima donna directors who couldn't work with their teammates, or directors who didn't contribute much at all. Now, coming into next episode, each of the remaining 24 have one hour to direct a set, complete with script, equipment and actors already in place. In a preview of next week, one lady spends half an hour fretting around without a single shot - not a good start for her when every minute counts. One theme for this series seems to be time management with a lot more pressure than we've seen in other shows like The Apprentice. Time pressure is weeding out the indecisive very quickly, while judging is going to be based on quality - and soon, viewer voting. Foo dogs by tribe.
