Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I'd like to find out what happened to "Man hands" from seinfeld.

It would be expensive and probably impossible given current licensing laws and royalties but I've always had this idea for a sitcom called "Spinoff." It would be 30 minutes per episode. Each episode would focus on a peripheral character from one random episode of a promanent TV show, and follow them through the next part of their day.

For example, there's an episode of Friends in which Ross and Chandler try to hit on this two girls at the coffee shop. My show would open with that scene from Friends, but instead of following Ross and Chandler like the actual show does, it would follow those two girls as they leave the Central Perk and we'd get to see what happens to them over the next 30 minutes.

It's totally impractical, but it would be a fantastic almost sketch type show; a hybred of sitcom/sketch comedy and I think it could be outstanding. Obviously, the issue comes with using characters/shows across all the networks and getting rights to those characters and blah blah blah. The logistics of it are a nightmare. But if you could figure out how to make it work, it could be something really special.

This is an awesome idea, actually.

Hey thanks!

I really see it in my mind and I think it could be oustanding. Probably the only actual way to go about it would be to just do it on one Network. Like pitch it to NBC and only use NBC shows. Even that would be difficult. But man I love the idea so much.

In a similar vein, I always thought it would be neat to take a well known classic story or movie and have 4 distinctly different well known directors each get a good size budget to reinterpret it and release them at the same time.

I love this.

Just like live theater, I've always said if you want to "remake" a movie, you should have to use the original script and just get a different director and actors to reinterpret the matterial. Absolutely. I love that idea.
