You Can't Do That On Television

Postby BBOvenGuy » Wed Dec 14, 2005 11:45 pm

For those of you who don't know, You Can't Do That On Television is my old show. I used to write for it. In fact, here I am with Christine McGlade on the set in 1985. Golly, I was so young then...

Anyway, this bit of trivia isn't enough to merit an entire thread (which is why I haven't started one before), but now there's some much more important breaking news:

You Can't Do That On Television is coming to DVD.

No details are available yet. Probably the best place to find news is Christine McGlade's website. She's been contacted about the project and would like to do a blog documenting the process. Information will probably be available on the YCDTOTV.com posting board as well.
Now there's something you don't see every day... unless you're us...

Oh my God...

You have no idea how happy this makes me. I also had no idea you wrote for the show. That must have been fun. Do you have only fond memories?

I'm just flabbergasted. In a good way.

Well, I actually don't know if I'm ever going to get any residuals off the DVDs. I kind of suspect I won't. :happy

On the other hand, the book I've got coming out next fall, The Real Life Channel, has a setting and characters that were inspired by my time working for YCDTOTV, so maybe I can capitalize on the DVD release to promote my book. I'd be happy with that.

And yes, I do have fond memories of my time working on the show. Not all of them are fond, because we are talking about working in the TV biz, after all, but many of them are fond.
