We won.

Wow.

It never got picked up, but we still got paid.

And so from that, producers on that show introduced us to their agents.

That's how we got an agent.

And then we had a bunch of general meetings set up, and we were like, why don't we just go prepare now?

Because general meetings are such bullshit meetings.

And we just sat down one week before these general meetings and conceived of three ideas.

One of them was this show.

And we went with our cell phone cameras into Times Square and shot a few sample bits of it, cut it together, and brought that sizzle tape into the general meeting.

And we got offers that week from MTV and TruTV and sold that show in the room, which has, by the way, never happened before.

They said we'd like to buy this.

Yeah.

I mean, as a matter of fact, I've been in so many pitches where I feel like, oh, they love this.

Yeah, I think what benefited us was the tape that we went in with just happened to be so funny, and we were just lucky to have something to show that was undeniably funny.

It was a five-minute little video.

but She was like one of the people at true laughs so hard She had like a tears coming down everything she went and got a bunch of other people called them and then played it again Wow and then they all laughed and she was like right and they were like yeah, and then she was like I really like this I kind of want to offer you guys this right now We had met with MTV two days earlier, and they did the same But they didn't want to do our show exactly as we brought it to them.

They wanted to make it a game show We weren't on the show contestants competed and

And they have a rotating cast of any comedians telling them what to do and we were like we think it'd be better Because like this plays to our skill set we know each other and we do improv so like if we are reoccurring people will be invested in us and like the character and want to come back and That was our take on it.

So then we told Because we said to her well, we got an offer and she was like was it from MTV and we're like, yeah She's like I knew it.
