Hey peeps...

So my family and i have been in negotiations to film a reality tv show based off of our struggling family business. Well we finally signed the contract, so for the next 6 months we will be filming.

this doesn't mean it will air on tv. Just means that this production company sees something that the networks might like. and will follow us around with cameras for the next 6 months to put together a 10 episode season to try to sell to a willing tv network.

so if all is well, in fall of 2012 we will have a show. wish me luck.


michael.

we sell and recondition obsolete circuit breakers. and part of the business is traveling all over the country, to canada and puerto rico looking for used equipment... and throw in a volatile family life... and vioal... reality tv. (apparently)

the show will be based around our family business, and follow our personal family drama as well lol.

6 months with cameras around? I don't think I would be able to bare that.

Anyways, good luck! :beer:

Congratz Michael. Sounds fun. Be prepared though. If it takes off all your lives may change. Business may expand to fast, more pressure on the family, ect. How did they contact you? Or did you send in a tape or something simular?
