Boy, can I relate! Not to the 'starving' part, thankfully, but I do have a script for a t.v. movie based on his characters from the series, 'Taxi'. Only this is a drama. I've submitted the script to Mr.Brooks, only to have it returned with the suggestion that I seek an agent to represent me. Wherein lies the old catch22. You won't get a chance unless you have the experience. On the other hand, where are you supposed to get the experience if no one will give you a chance? OY!!!
Anyway, Mr. Brooks, if you're reading this, please give my script a read. It's based on characters YOU created, anyway. And the story has a twist that 'Taxi' fans will find intriguing if not a bit upsetting. I had a heck of a time trying to decide if I should take this direction, but then realized to go any other way would've been a cop-out to the status quo and I'd never forgive myself. So, like a couple of 'Taxi' co-stars who took (and still take it) to the limit; Andy and Danny, I had to be true to what I wanted to create. It IS worth a read. And who better to produce the script than one of the creators of the original show.
Thanks for llistening.
