I've got a mental block with regards to The Lunchroom. It's a great series, but I can't bring myself to join them to write more. But they're really good without me anyway.
Chris comes over to Kate's when she claims there is an intruder in the house. But when he comes over he finds something more shocking. Will waits to audition for the new school play and while he waits Richard Belzer appears. He warns him about a girl, whom Will has been eyeing the whole time. Brock finally decides to end all contact with Sarah. After the double date incident, Joel tries his hardest to get in touch with Cathy.
Part 2 "Across the Street"
Fed up, Reicther decides he wants to quit his job and makes a big plan to do it. Stacy graduates and is surprised to see both Dave and Marilyn at the ceremony. As Will plans to talk to Ellen, Belzer makes one last chance to warn him. Debbie (Brian and Stacy's mom) sees Stacy kissing Marilyn. Joel and Cathy meet and she gives him an ultimatum. Chris reveals Kate's new secret to Casey. AND, in the episodes final moments, a character tries to kill themself.
Everything Must End...
The Final Episode of The Lunchroom Coming Summer 2010
I feel I've been dishonest with Bruce and the rest of the writers, so I'd like to clear up a few things.
It is true that I have far too much shark on my hands to deal with a web series right now (including my own that I am starting up), but the real truth of the matter is that I don't know how to write for these characters. Maybe its just that I'm out of touch with writing slapstick comedy. The thing is, this series is SO psuedoepisodic that it makes my head spin whenever I try to write a scene. I don't want to let anyone down, most of all Bruce, one of the most original writers I've ever "worked with" or seen.
As I've been keeping up with the series, I noticed that Reichter really reminds me of Marshall (Timm Sharp) from "Undeclared". Similar quirky mannerisms, and parents that want them to do something they don't. For me, this is a good thing, as I loved that character.
Beginnings - It's high school all over again. Seriously. (now fixed and cleaned!)
