Plain Old Tele Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) Ever wondered what sort of notes network execs give on shows? There's a Twitter account called @TVNetworkNotes that solicits real, actual notes and posts them. Some howlers: @TvNetworkNotes "Can you make the clone black?" - MTV 2/17/11, 5:12 PM @TvNetworkNotes "Has the DP ever lit lesbians before? It's important that the cinematographer have experience in this." - HBO (pre-production) 2/21/11, 12:54 PM @TvNetworkNotes "It's SO much not what we're looking for that it might actually end up being what we're looking for." - Starz 3/10/11, 12:44 PM @TvNetworkNotes The butt joke is insensitive towards women. (Two lines down) Please add more shots of sexy women in bikinis on the beach. - Travel8/8/11, 4:45 PM @TvNetworkNotes "We're ok with her going into the woods to save him, but she can't have a gun because she's not our hero." - Syfy11/29/11, 2:20 PM @TvNetworkNotes "Take out Auld Lang Syne. I've never heard of it." - VH111/13/12, 10:57 AM @TvNetworkNotes "I haven't seen Moneyball, but could you make this more like Moneyball?" - FOX11/29/12, 11:21 AM @TvNetworkNotes Upon revealing a 7-foot tall woman with green skin, claws, and a giant domed head: "How do we know she's an alien?" - SyFy4/19/13, 11:38 AM @TvNetworkNotes "Our research shows women respond well to violence. Take out the lifeguard and put in the rape scene." - NBC5/3/13, 8:54 AM Edited November 14, 2013 by Telemachos 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
