I like Kirk.  I've tried to find ways to include him in content I've written for you in the past, and I'll try to find ways to include him in content I'll write for you in the future.  Because he's a druggie, the protagonists of the series view him in a negative light -- as impressionable teens should, lest they become druggies themselves; however, some of my favorite people in the world happen to be druggies, and therefore I want to eventually write an episode for you in which Kirk is the hero of the plot.  I don't want the episode to encourage drug use, but I do want the episode to encourage tolerance of people who have made the "life choice" of using drugs recreationally, because I don't think cannibus should be illegal.  Cigarettes are far more harmful to the health of smokers, and second hand smokers, than marijuana will ever be.

I'll have to read the show soon. It sounds like an excellent virtual series, and could be a good throwback to my high school days.

On a more serious note, I think Alan raises some excellent points... and while I don't agree with all of them, I do think an episode focusing on Kirk sounds like a terrific and bold idea.

Good luck in the future guys.

I've finally read eveything up to the episode called PROZAC CANDY.  (If you read between the lines, it means I still haven't read that second episode that I contributed some material for.)  Anyway, PROZAC CANDY is my new favourite episode.

NEVER MIND THE BOLLOCKS is my new favourite episode.  Hilarious situation.  Well done.

Thank you, Alan. Those two are some of my favourites also. I think the series is it's best when we spoof or do a satire about something. Examples: "Prozac Candy" was about addiction; "Never Mind the Bollocks" was about everyone's fear about terrorisism; "Politically Incorrect" was about racism.

They're my favorite episodes to write. Anyway, he's a list of some of the most popular episodes, in order (these were taken from asking people their favorites)

01. Politically Incorrect
02. Never Mind the Bollocks
03. I'm Up Here
04. Comics and Comedians
05. Screw Your Spirit
06. A Tale of Two Brides: A Mormon's Tale
07. Prozac Candy
08. The Risk
09. What Was That?
10. Cold Blue


Next episode up is "I've Got It Bad and That Ain't Good" where Will has a hallucnation and thinks he sees actor Richard Belzer...weird ain't it? But that's not the only thing that happens, they're be other things to satisfy you.

Last night I was inspired.  I have an idea for an episode.  Since you've got a far better grasp on the characters than I do, I won't write the entire episode; instead, I'll e-mail a few scenes to you, with a summary of the rest of the idea.  I'll e-mail that before friday, and maybe you'll be able to work with it.

Looking forward to it, Alan.

The end of the season is coming very soon.

The next 3 episodes are all connected. All three take place on the same night of the spring dance with 3 different perspectives. Part 1 will be what happens to Casey who is at a 'special' program. Part 2 will focus on Will, Joel, and Chris at the dance where Will has some medical problems. Part 3 will focus on Brian, Brock, Stacy, and Reicther. While having an 'anti-dance' night, Brian has a revalation; Stacy meets an interesting girl; Reicther battles a pest in his room.

After that, episode 13 will be the one Alan was talking about above. Then that should end Season 2.

There will be a short break before Season 3 begins. I'm hoping to have more scenes in the Lunchroom and actually have a full season with 22 episodes. (if I can ever make it.)

PS
Alan, I'm using more unused material of yours for Episode 9 "That Ain't Good" which will be posted soon.

How can I get a shot at writing this hilarious satire???

This is some good comedy. It is very crisp writing.

With the right director, it could actually go places.

I'd like to try to lend my services for season three, if possible.

You'll have my new scenes Tomorrow (Saturday).  I hope they pass muster.

Bruce, about the fuill 22 episodes, keep the 13/season.
It makes it much more involving and personal to the audience.

I've decided to keep going with the 13/season idea.

It is more involving and personal that way.

Is it okay to send in ideas as well, not entire episodes.

GIVE ME A CHANCE!! BAH!!
