Yeah I know, I've read some of my friends scripts.
and seen some of their pilots, being good on paper is hard enough but then putting it on screen...

indeed
there is no way I would ever even try and film so much as a scene as a sample. I'm alright at writing and I've been told it's quite funny (wrote two different ones) but it's a monster to get into

I guess the trouble is, anyone with a Youtube account and a webcam thinks they can hit the big screen.
I just don't get how Katy Brand got her show, she must be seriously good at noshing off nob.

look how well Gavin and Stacey has done. It's fucking dire.

depresses me. It makes me want to write stuff that is warm and cuddly and utter utter shit just so I have a chance
