I can't wait for the rape scene.


I just got this casting notice in my email:


"A travel show pilot called "Two Birds Travel." The auditions are this coming Saturday, December 15th.

E-mail a headshot at this address: REDACTED. Looking for two girls, all ethnicities, age 25 - 35. There is pay involved.

Two Birds Travel

Thelma and Louise meets Anthony Bourdain dressed in a wardrobe borrowed from Carrie Bradshaw in this travel show about two friends in search of the best a city has to offer.

From hole-in-the-wall bars to haute cuisine, backstage at rock concerts to roller-skating to the oldies, this innovative series highlights the cutting edge in food, drink, fashion and adventure. With their finger on the pulse and friends in all the right places, these two chicks are the kind of birds you hope to get seated next to at the dinner table.

Our pilot episode takes us to Los Angeles where the girls learn to fly courtesy of De La Guarda, drink Belgian ale, enjoy a guitar lesson with Morcheeba's Ross Godfried and shop in some of L.A.'s coolest, unknown stores. From Echo Park to Little Tokyo to Malibu and back again, these birds are your ultimate guides to uncovering the hippest in what's going down."

Okay, um, I see the Sex and the City and the Anthony Bourdain, but what about the Thelma and Louise?

I think they might want to add on that the job requires you to almost get raped, shoot a dude, blow up a truck, and then decide to carry out a wordless suicide pact at the end.

Please re-write.

Thanks!

"a guitar lesson with Morcheeba's Ross Godfried"
!!!
In a town full of guitarists, the best this show could do is the guy from Morcheeba? Are you sure he's got the time in his busy schedule to be on your awesome new show? Sure he won't be too sleepy from selling his plasma?

Forget about all this. If they want to impress me with a reality show based upon a Susan Sarandon flick, let's see them do it with The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Even better, "Dead Man Walking." Or "Cradle Will Rock."
