Art and Media: March 2004 Archives

Several months ago, I auditioned for a comedy show on ABC called "My Life is a Sitcom". I did not get selected to act on the show, but the show started to air last Sunday at 7:30 PM. Joe Mozian, the creator of the show, sent me an email today complaining that ABC has not done much to promote his show. He included a link to a special promotional video for the show.

I am writing this post because my daughter saw me on TV in the advertisement for the show. I have gotten no recognition from Joe Mozian nor ABC despite the fact that they are using my image. Well, I want to complain that Joe Mozian has not done enough to promote me. This is my life as a comedian! I thought I had a future in this business.

Anyway, here is the email I got from Joe Mozian:

I know I shouldn't bite the hand that feeds me, but...chomp, chomp, chomp...

Dear Friends,

I'm a bit PO'd that ABC Family has done squat to promote My life is a Sitcom, so I made a funny tongue-in-cheek video in protest.

In spite of a severe lack in marketing, the numbers for the 1st show far exceeded their expectations. I know this is all thanks to you guys and gals for spreading the word.

Hope you all get a kick out of the video.

PS - I think they repeat each episode the following Sunday at 12:30 AM (that's Saturday night, really)
