    I like Scarlett Johannson as the voice of Issa. For the voice of Rayne, maybe John Krasinski? I know we're not discussing Mick yet, but I feel like Fred Armisen is totally the voice of Mick!

    I think you meant "And was there every any doubt that these 2 WOULD be in the pilot." Otherwise it's a double-negative. Sheesh, Sohmer. I thought you were a writer. ;) LOVE seeing these model sheets. Thanks for posting!

    VERY exciting! Great news! Hey, I teach voice acting for a living, in Chicago. I'd love to have some of my students audition. Some of them are represented by agencies in the USA. But if you're interested in expanding your pool, if you send me a casting sheet and sides, I will send you a few good auditions to consider. (If you're open to working with Chicago talent.) If you end up casting these talent, I'm sure the recording studio where I work could get you a good deal on studio time and ISDN/Source-Connect sessions. Thanks for your consideration.

    And for today's complaint, I'd like to point out that the pledge amounts and fake president names do not correspond correctly to the Presidents on U.S. currency. Franklin should be $100, etc. :p

    You may play the artistic license card. It's also an extremely common error that I see constantly. As with everything in English, it's complicated (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_compound#Hyphenated_compound_adjectives) But here's the rule of thumb: "My apartment has drab beige walls." Are the walls beige? Yes. Are they drab? Yes. Therefore, it's NOT hyphenated. "My apartment has paper-thin walls." Are the walls thin? Yes. Are they paper? NO. (Not literally.) Therefore, it IS hyphenated.

    I'm glad to support this project. The workshop version you guys did at the Lookingglass was one of the more visceral evenings of theater I've experienced. Can't wait to see it staged. I want to do the sound design for you guys! But the punctuation Nazi in me wishes it was hyphenated: "Paper-Thin Walls."
