    I love the new table! It looks great in that space.

    Alison, you didn't tell everyone the premise of the sitcom you're writing. Since you already told me about it, I'll go ahead and clue the folks in.

    The title of the show is "Allison's Ami". It's about a woman, Allison Anderson, who is a successful interior designer living in New York City. But her world is suddenly turned upside down when her cousin Marguerite moves from Paris to America. Allison agrees to let Marguerite move in with her until she's able to find a job and get her own place.

    But it seems 22 year old Marguerite is more interested in dating American men than finding employment. Rather than looking for a job, Marguerite quickly becomes a fixture on the NYC club scene. Allison soon realizes it will take an act of Congress to get Marguerite to move out.

    Things really begin to spiral out of control when Marguerite begins spending more and more time with Allison's long time boyfriend, Marty. Helping Allison deal with Marguerite are her best friends Laura and Diana, two street-wise women who think they can beat Marguerite at her own game.

    Cast:
    Allison......... Alison Rosen
    Marguerite....Barret Swatek
    Marty........... Dustin Goot
    Laura........... Diana Falzone
    Diana........... Laura Leu

    I don't have time to look at Joe's script nonsense but casting me as the leading man would be appropriate don't you think?

    Table looks nice (I liked that guy's Black Sabbath shirt)

    Your freckles look cute

    Bring back Papa Rosen (cuz your Dad likes me the best)

    Joe, you should cast yourself as "Joe the Bartender." He's the bartender at Alison's and her friend's favorite hang out, and always dispensing wisdom and advice to Alison, along with the Cosmopoltians, beers and Appletinis (those things are gross, aren't they?). Also, there is a minor feeling of attraction between Joe and Alison that never seems to get past the looking into each other's eyes and smiling stage. When confronted by her friends, Alison will only admit that Joe is a good looking guy, but "not my type."
  • Joe
    That's a pretty good idea!

    Originally this morning I was going to add that Allison's dilemma is further complicated by an urgent message from Eduardo, a rich capitalist and an old flame that Allison hasn't heard from for 5 years who is moving back to NYC and wants to reconnect with her. Playing Eduardo? Yours truly of course.

    But the synopsis was getting too long, so I guess Eduardo will have to wait until season 2.

    Eduardo would be really cool if he looked and sounded exactly like Ricky Ricardo
  • That's how I work... several scripts at once, depending when inspiration strikes. Someday when I'm ready to retire, I'll have 20 scripts all come to fruition at the same time, funding my "tunnel to Hawaii" project.

    Seeing those burly men in your video reminded me just how much I enjoy having Papa Rosen in Alison's vlogs. I hope there is a burly Papa Rosen call coming soon. I miss him so much!
  • Maybe I can line him up for this week. He's very busy sitting in his chair and thinking but I'll see if he'll make time!
  • 4 scripts at once? dunno how you do it. let me know if you need to bounce ideas off someone AlyRo.
