Hey Reno... good to hear from ya. Congrats squared on the daughter.

You know you fit in well here. We only talk movies.

No, that's not true. I lied. I only talk movies.

No, not true. Only movies and bitching about getting old.

Lied again... anything and everything goes on here.

Little update. My daughter is here with me to stay my ex is not fighting it. She is not happy but sees fighting is a lost cause. Learners permit -for driving-, smart phone, been a busy week and expensive. She is like her dad movies and comics are some of her favorite things and I have someone to watch Survivor with next season.

Oh man, I gotta boast a LITTLE to someone who'll give a dang, I was up all night working on the bones for a bible, I wanted to see if I had enough material for an idea that was percolating and it seems like I do.  I gotta polish up the episodes with some subplots (I had 37 ideas for episodes!) and add quite a bit of mea, but that was a big accomplishment for me, in such a short amount of time.  Of course, I still don't know what I'm going to do for the d6mn PILOT, which is pretty important.

Let it percolate. Give it time. It will come to you.

It's been percolating for a while... whenever I try to stop, I get a new idea.  The only problem is the ideas keep moving forward since the continue plot threads (I'm already into the third season), which moves me further away from the inciting story.  It's a lot easier to shuffle people around when you already have them where they need to be.

Ok, since I don't fully comprehend what your going through and the where, when and how of things, I had a little spark of an idea based on things you've said. Maybe this is in the ballpark... Maybe it's in a different dimension.

It's all a dream. Boom. Mike drop.

I'm kidding. No, but seriously... So your trying to think of a beginning... A pilot. Taking cues from the first season of Bloodline... The very first episode, told the ending. Simply put, and this is not a spoiler, John Rayburn methodically, yet with extreme anger kills his brother, Ray, in the first hour (ep. 1). The rest of the season flashbacks to where this boiling started and ends to what we started off seeing in the first episode.

I thought it was brilliant. The first episode just grabs you, and then your in it for the season to see how it got to that point. It was great story telling.

Don't know if that helps, hurts, or a whole lot of nuttin

You'll figure something out. Maybe in a dream. Keep pencil and paper next to you... Always. Including the night stand.

I always do ^_^

Heck, about three or four times last night when I was about to fall asleep, I had an idea and had to wake up, open up my program and wrote out another episode idea.

I'll admit I don't have an ending in mind either, I know I should but honestly, how many shows get a proper finale?  Especially in this day and age where they keep resurrecting tv shows for "one more season" or a "movie" on another network.  I know a bunch of the beats, but the core of the story, the mission of the week, that's eluding me.
