Our first FOX meeting…

The time finally came for our meeting with the FOX executives.  We arrived at the FOX lot and were given an “drive on pass” and headed to Missy’s office (we met Missy through our contacts at EFNT - detailed in a previous entry).  We could have never asked for a more warm or accomodating welcome from Missy and her team.  They rolled out the red carpet for us.  Missy heads up the talent for FOX - keeping stars like Paris Hilton happy.  We talked shop for half an hour while we waited for the reality TV folks to drop by Missy’s offices for our meeting. 

We were able to pitch our idea directly to Missy and show her the screener (I bought my PowerBook G4 to play it on).  The reality executive showed up and she proceeded to talk shop with Missy and we tried our best to keep up.  Next we gave her the pitch - describing the “Big Show” as well as the “Small Show” we already had in the can.  Finally we played the screener for her.  As soon as we were done she wanted to know where Missy got the flowers on her coffee table.  Maybe Granddad was right…
