So I would say that pilots are probably set to start filming in the next 2 weeks to a month. That makes me anxious about what Alex might or might not be involved in.

*starts to gnaw fingernails*

What are sides, SS, if you please? Do they say who is cast?

And I'm with you on the fingernail ambush... it's hard not to be nervous.

Sorry, I should ahve explained. Showfax is a site where regular actors can go to get audition scripts for minor roles in episodic TV roles, movies, mini-series and even commercials. Those scripts for these minor roles are called sides. The site lists which roles are available and for a fee, the roles can be downloaded. The site doesn't give any casting information other than who the casting agents are.

Anyone who has a subscription to Showfax or tis willing to pay the per role fees, can download the script passages. It's not the whole script, but the portion that pertains to that particular role. You can sometimes gather info though from those sides about what the main characters are doing in the episode. That's how we figured out a lot of plot points for Moonlight ahead of time, although on occasion those ended up being changed.

Interesting! Thanks SS

Back to Alex's last blog

Currently I am moving into a position where we have narrowed down the projects that I have genuine interest in, and hope to have reached a decision on something very soon!

I wish I knew who is "we"...
But otherwise, Alex sounds like he has a choice. Thinking positive here but still impatient

Hmmm.....he could be referring to his Agent....his Manager....his dog....or maybe he just likes using the royal "we" when referring to himself.

His dog? He is no Micky Rourke

Probably the writer he was working with or is that a done deal now?

Oh! We need some real news, we can speculate to exhaustion but please Alex, a new blog will be nice

Thanks SS! I am a Hollywood Outsider!

It could be the royal we that he talking about or as my kids often said," we means, me and the mouse in my pocket." Do you think he has a mouse?

Just wish he would bless us with some news.

Oh, carniegal, you pitched that one right over the plate!

Fleur and grace, read again--she said mouse!

Of course she said mouse.

Because a moose couldn't fit in his pocket.

Exactly. See how brilliant you are?

Creative is good. Sounds positive, although I'd like more news about the CM show. Did I hear someone say mousie?
