Television Series

 

Bound & Gags

Yes, Bound & Gags was an actual local TV series. There were actors and cameras and crew and me.

It was hard work but we all had our share of fun. The series ended pretty much with a thud. I was

burned out, wanted to do other things, a couple of cast members were moving on, did I mention I was

burned out? I planned to only take a month or so off from shooting to recast so parts and see if I could get

some new blood. But, as what usually happens when you' take some time off' time just kept slipping away

and the further away from the day to day grind of doing a TV show the less excited I was to get back. I talked

to the cast and told them. Some could see the writing on the wall but they were all cool about it.

 

But that doesn't mean we shot everything I wrote. So here are some (as in the ones I could find) unused scripts

from Bound & Gags. The idea behind Bound & Gags was to to do short pieces that got to the joke and got out.

Short scenes that had nothing to do with one another but, when added up, we had ourselves a half hour of television.

So that's what we did. I may have some episodes somewhere but they're on video tape and have been in storage

pretty much since they were shot so they're probably all dust by now. So enjoy what's left of Bound & Gags.

Murder In Malden

A friend of mine is the executive director of an access Tv station in Malden, MA. He got in touch with me

about writing a script about the first armed robbery with a murder happened in the US. Peppy little project, wouldn't you say?

He said it was the 250th anniversary and would really like to produce a piece on it. I told him to send me what he had. 

He sent me two articles. That's. I have to write something based on two articles? Sounds about right. 

You can read about the event here: http://www.crimemagazine.com/first-armed-bank-robbery-american-history-1864

So I dug as much as I could to find out as much as I could and decided to do it. First I had to come up with a premise.

I had to wrap the slight information I had in some form. I knew writing the script I'd probably end up with 12-15 minutes tops.

So the conceit I came up with is, while cleaning the TV stations basement they found old film canister that had an

old afternoon movie TV show from the 1950's. That way I could jam in commercials, intros, etc. to chew up time. 

But I also needed to do something with the actual story. So I came up with the idea to make it as a silent movie.

I didn't know how good his actors would be so I didn't want to tax them. This way no one had to remember lines and

all the scenes would be short. I gave it to him but there were issue with the historical society or something,

the anniversary year passed by and this became a forgotten project.
