A New Crime-based TV Show? With ME hosting?! You gotta be kidding…!

Then there was the time when a Hollywood producer contacted me…

So, Voyagers, I have been holding this back for a while but I figure it’s time to let y’all in on at least a bit of the behind the scenes stuff.

I have partnered with an Emmy-winning Hollywood producer to develop a TV show!!!!!!!!!

The creative process is slow, but if all goes as planned, we will be taping our first footage (A pilot, you ask? No. They call it a sizzle reel 🤷‍♀️) very soon, in my hometown of Dallas!

You might have a few basic questions, like, you know, what’s the show about? Well, at this point I can tell you a few things: it is crime related (yay!), it will change lives (bigger YAY), and our logline includes the words, “The _ of Crime Will Never _ _ _.” 😁

Weird, huh?

How the hell did this happen? Well…I was contacted by someone who is associated with a very successful television producer, Kerri Zane, which led to a pitch meeting with Kerri via Zoom, and when I got to my second idea, Kerri basically stopped me there, and said, “I love it” a few times. And that was how this whole thing began.

It’s been going on a few months now, with creative meetings and talks and ideas and titles for the show being thrown around. I’m learning all kinds of things about Hollywood I never learned when I lived there, like, what’s a “sizzle reel” and why is it a “logline” and not a “tagline”…

I will tell you more as we move along. In the meantime, I am back to recording my podcast with Merie, “Now Fear This!” with new episodes dropping on Fridays, I am still keeping this blog rolling, AND will be heading to the UK to do an actual COVID-delayed Cambridge graduation ceremony soon as well. So, yeah. Lots of stuff is happening.
