"Summary writer sign-up thread for Spike TV's Joe Schmo 2" |
This thread is the episode summary writer sign-up thread for Spike TV's Joe Schmo 2, which premieres Tuesday, June 15 at 10PM ET/PT and will be consist of eight(?) one-hour episodes.Based on our initial summary writer interest thread, the following folks have already expressed interest in writing for this series: - I_AM_HE - Mysterious Jedi - TeamJoisey - Bucky Katt - mistofleas - Skiver - Draco Malfoy - Mon Cherie - Tiger Lily ...if your name is listed above, please reply below reconfirming your interest in this show, as well as noting if you are interested in summarizing more than just one episode. If your name is not on the above list and you are still interested in summarizing this show, please also feel free to reply below indicating your interest. Btw, thanks to the friendly folks over at Spike, I have seen a complete copy of the premiere episode and have to say this season is pretty funny... and from what I've seen, potential writers need not nearly as concerned about making fun of another "nice Joe" like Matt. Please note however, that we are also running open sign-up threads for NBC's Next Action Star, NBC's For Love Or Money 3, FOX's The Simple Life 2, FOX's The Casino, and ABC's The Two Timer, so if you are planning to reply to more than one of the above mentioned open sign-up threads, it would be helpful if you could note the other shows in your reply, so that we can try and ensure any proposed schedule doesn't schedule you for back-to-back summaries, commit you to more summaries than you were expecting, etc. Additionally, also keep in mind that we will (shortly) be starting The Amazing Race 5 and Big Brother 5 sign-up threads (both shows will premiere July 6.) As a reminder, while all our summary writing is on a volunteer basis, etc. reliablity, timeliness (or at least status communication) is important, and that while we can't offer anyone any $$$, we do occasionally partner with companies to promote stuff and, if we can, I do try and pass some of the goodies along to the show's corresponding episode writers -- as I've recently announced we've been able to do with all of the writers of ABC's two "Celebrity Mole" editions -- all of which will be receiving free "Celebrity Mole Hawaii" DVD collections courtesy of Eagle Rock Entertainment (and before any asks, yes, I've been individually packing a couple of dozen DVD's this week, and I'm planning to ship them out soon ) Any questions, please let me know... hope this doesn't sound too convoluted to anyone  Thanks, SB

LAST EDITED ON 06-03-04 AT 12:42 PM (EST)Hey webby. I'll be more than happy to do an episode of Joe Schmo 2. Let me know when, where and I'm there! Also I believe I said I'd do Last Comic Standing too, but I didn't see a sign up for it.  --gets notepad ready

4. "RE: Summary writer sign-up thread for Spike TV's Joe Schmo 2" |
LAST EDITED ON 06-03-04 AT 03:22 PM (EST)unfortunately, i think i'll have to decline the opportunity for a schmo slot ( ), as it doesn't look like i'll have cable (read: my own place) by the time this hits air, and you'll be needing to set up a schedule within the next week. but that's ok, gives more peeps a chance - it looks like there is plenty of interest with or without me  in the off chance that i convince my parents to get cable (or maybe get it for them ), i'll just have to make do with the added fun of actually getting to watch the show along with that of reading the summaries, but as we're coming down to the wire here, it's probably safest to just take my ping-pong ball out of the hopper. i'll go ahead and reply to this post if the situation changes within the next few days and i'll be available after all, but as i said above, please don't wait around just for me. my feelings won't be hurt! thanks webby

I'm in, but not available June 20-July 5. And I might be clueless after that. But that's not always a bad thing when you are writing a summary, right?

10. "Proposed Episodes 1-4 schedule for Joe Schmo 2" |
Hi folks, apologies for the release of all these only partial schedules, but given that we're trying to handle juggling summary writing schedules for, at last count, *TEN* (yes, TEN) different summer shows, this is going a wee-bit slowly (oh my heck, I've even had to break out a color-coded Excel spreadsheet to try and keep it all straight, LOL! )Anyways, below is the proposed writer schedule for the first four episodes of Joe Schmo 2. If you are listed below, please confirm the assigned episode is OK for you. If your name isn't listed below, don't worry, I haven't forgotten about you, I'm just more or less trying to get the schedule for the first few weeks of all the shows up and running. Tuesday, June 15, Episode 1 - TeamJoisey Tuesday, June 22, Episode 2 - Mon Cherie Tuesday, June 29, Episode 3 - woeisme1 Tuesday, July 06, Episode 4 - mistofleas Thanks, SB

17. "I No Longer Get Spike TV" |
Webby, everyone...I'm in trouble here.I'm scheduled to do the summary for the July 6th episode and for a reason that someone has yet to explain to me, my apartment complex has pulled SpikeTV from our lineup (I get cable for free in my building). So, not only do I not get to watch the rest of Schmo...I can't do the Summary!  I'm really super sorry about this. I've called the property managers but all they'll tell me is, they've changed packages and SpikeTV is no longer available. I know I get it for free and begger shouldn't be choosers, but this sucks! I need to ask for someone to take my July 6th summary for me. Again I apologize and if I can figure out a way to do it I will, but...I'm not very hopeful. Volunteers?  --is now pissy

Esbea, can you do next week's episode 4? I also have you down for TAR's Ep4 three weeks later, let me know of that's a problem.Tiger, FYI I'm planning on scheduling you for the following week's Ep5, unless it's a problem. Woe, thanks for the offer to help, are you saying that you're interested in summarizing a second episode of Schmo? (assuming there's room) Thanks everyone! -SB

No problemo, my other summary is a month away. That *should* give me time to recuperate.

33. "*bump*" |
LAST EDITED ON 07-30-04 AT 11:27 PM (EST)Bumping because it looks like we're at the end of the scheduled summaries. I don't know if doing this in this thread is the best thing, or if I should have started a new thread to make sure people saw it, or even one on OT...I'll send an email to Webby too. How many episodes are left? Do we have anyone who's wanting to write a summary that hasn't had the opportunity yet? Draco's around again, it seems, but I don't know if he's watching; or if misto's SpikeTV problems have been resolved... I suppose I can pinch-hit if no one else volunteers for Ep8.

36. "RE: I can help out too" |
rock, paper, scissors?  really, i don't care either way. we can wait until sunday night or monday morning to see if any new peeps jump in the pool, and then decide how to do it then, or you can go ahead and claim this one, to celebrate your school-induced freedom by writing a summary  i can take this one, or the one after that, or woe can. i think my TAR summary is in 3 weeks (well, closer to 2, but you know what i mean...TAR 5.7, if i've hopelessly muddied the calendar), so i can't do a schmo ep that week, if it's still going, unless i trade TAR eps with someone else. that's my only restriction on a 2nd schmo ep

LAST EDITED ON 08-02-04 AT 06:42 PM (EST)Webby, hope all is well for you. It looks like either HE or I will be doing it, but it will get done. I love doing these and would also gladly volunteer to do next season too! I am sure HE will check in later today and let me know if he wants me to take this one.
