GOOD NEWS FOR ALL ACTORS:
I like Leno as much as the next person, but not in Prime Time where he eats up hundreds of actors' jobs by taking the place of scripted shows. Finally, Leno is being pulled from the 10 p.m. spot (February 12th).That means 5 more prime-time hours for scripted television shows and more jobs for actors (with a new version of "Law & Order" out of Los Angeles).
I expect a bunch of additional pilots to be produced as a result of this.
BTW, Pilot Season has begun. There were 5 Pilots in Friday's Breakdowns. So, if you haven't gotten your new pix mounted up on BD Services yet, or posted video (or new, improved video), you already blew 5 opportunities, just on that one day alone (not to mention regular episodic and movie work). For those who have made the proper preparations before Christmas, as directed, you are in the ballgame. Those few who are stragglers have relegated themselves to the bench and have effectively, voluntarily retired until they have the proper equipment to the play the game. Careful, someone from the minors may be called up to take your place. I have two words for you: "Wally Pip" http://www.thediamondangle.com/archive/oct01/pipp.html
I know how hard some of you work on being prepared so I'm giving you a "shout out." Some are on-the-road heading to L.A. as I write this. Others are making sure their metro cards are fresh for NYC. Good luck to us this Pilot Season, and always.
All My Best,
Seth @ GKM
