Season 1 Episode 3: Pageantry
Sunday, August 30, 2009 at 08:19PM Writer's Note:
While I never competed in any beauty pageants as a child, I did compete in dance competitions, and the costs for costumes, coaching, entry fees, shoes, classes was exorbitant and hilarious, considering the end result was a $10 plastic trophy. I thought it would be funny to explore this world of excess in a recession, and so I created Astrid, a beauty pageant coach who can't figure out how to pay her bills, and then threw in Nate, a pageant dad with a crush. And the actors did the rest.

Darrin,
This is so funny, imaginative, and well-done that I can't wait for more. You are a real talent ! I will be watching!
Wow! Hello Shannon. I am proud to say that I went to school with this lovely screen gem. You put on the southern accent beautifully. You have gained a new and improved fan. Improved, because I have always been a fan of you the person, now a fan of you the star.
