We Make TV & Film and Help You Do The Same
Whether you want to be a Hollywood producer, or just wonder what it’s like to work in the film and television business, these posts will lift the veil on the “black art” known as producing. In other words, you’ll finally know what a producer actually does.
There’s a great guest post on John August’s blog called When You Think Someone Stole Your Idea. Written by aspiring screenwriter Randall Girdner, it explores those sickening thoughts most of us have had at some point: Did someone steal my idea? Will someone steal my idea? The post is an honest exploration of Randall’s situation, … Read more
It’s been an exciting week! We’ve finally been able to tell the world that our new show Don’t Trust Andrew Mayne will be premiering on A&E on Monday, January 13, at 10pm.
The press coverage has been kind of awesome, from the official Variety press coverage:
Joke and Biagio with fellow executive producers Mary Jaras and Andrew Mayne on day 1 of our 9 week shoot. In case the title didn’t tip you off, Andrew also stars in our new A&E series Don’t Trust Andrew Mayne.
For months we’ve been hinting at our giant new series that we haven’t been able to talk about (though we constantly talk about not being able to talk about it on our podcast.)
Well, we can finally say what it is and where you can see it…though much will remain shrouded in mystery until our network executives turn us loose!

The many faces of our daughter, Halle Jo.

I was frightened some magic hormone potion would get released in my body and I would no longer be me.
I’m here to tell you, I’m still me, I just have one more person I love in my life.
MTVs Caged is our new TV show, and as you know from previous posts, this one is truly close to our hearts. As executive producers, co-creators, and hands-on creatives we feel this is our finest work to date.

We love connecting with you.
But sometimes…we drop off the map.
Lately, we’ve disappeared into the black hole that is full time Hollywood, and you haven’t heard from us (except those of you getting our newsletter. We’ve been seeing you a lot!)
Know that even when we’re away, we’re thinking of you.
We’re forever committed to helping you live your showbiz dreams, whatever they may be. Nothing gives us greater pride than helping launch a new career.
Hopefully, you’re next.
