As a virtual series fanatic, I once again ask what's the plans for this. Are you planning on releasing them steadily or was this a one time deal?

I'll read it a bit later on if I get the time. Mayhem in VO.

Oh, man. I've been working on several other episodes. In fact 2 more should be up by Tuesday. I am sending in 2 more.

Yeah, we plan on writing them as long as interesting stuff happens to us, and when it doesn't we'll just make it up.  Were in the process or writing season 2 episodes already (I'm Vincent Biga if you haven't guessed already)

What do you guys think of the idea of Casey Wrenn writing for my series, "The Lunchroom"?

This question is brought up, when I read what people were writing about Casey's "Axe Mutilation." How it's horrible and trite.

I haven't read it. In fact, when Casey got the job, I hadn't even read any of his stuff.

The episode he wrote (actually, co-wrote) is very different from his other stuff. But I still think some people might have a problem with him writing for the show.

I would really like to hear what everyone has to say about this.

P.S. He co-wrote Episode 8, which should be up very soon.

What's everyone think of the show so far?

I say give him a chance.  Take a good look at the episode of your series that he co-wrote.  If the collaboration made a good episode, keep him onboard.  I'll bet he'll quit after reading this thread.  If I got bad reviews for something, and found a thread like this about me, I'd quit in an instant.  I don't stay in places where people wonder if I belong there...unless I've got something to prove.

Sometime next week we plan to post another Episode. This Episode is very special.

A New Character is introduced and something totatlly bizzare happens.

I must also warn everyone, that it is potentially offensive.

Locally, this upcoming Episode is being called the funniest one we've written so far.

Also, if anyone would like to write an Episode, contacted me at glick12345@yahoo.com. My AIM name is LeeSimon988.

Bruce, you guys use Word, yes? Well, you can easily change them to HTML by saving them as HTML. Also, Final Draft is a nice word process/HTML converter, too.

Cool. I'm going to repost the complete 1st Season in HTML.

Thanks, Bryy

Just to post some info about the new upcoming season, here is the list of some new writers that are trying their hand at writing for the series:

      -Melinda Waterman (a friend who mostly writes poetry and songs)

      -Trisha Vansickle (another friend, who mostly co-writes songs with Melinda)

      -Tyler Schwartz (a writer I meet over the internet. Hasn't written anything)

And the one I'm most excited about...

      -ALAN HOLMAN (yes, that's right. The man who brought us "Banana Chan" and "The Creator" has agreed to write an episode -- and possibly more in the future.)


In any more important info comes up, I'll post it.

There's been a move up.

Instead of July, expect the new season to start the week of June 13th.
Posted by: Alan_Holman (Guest), June 3rd, 2004, 9:29pm; Reply: 18
Yup!  I'm reading the series, getting a feel for the characters, and there'll be at least three episodes from me for your second season!

All:

Bruce has converted all the episodes to html format.  Should make it a lot easier to read them now.
