:14:01
If you make sweeps even
with shared credit, that's a huge deal.
:14:04
I happen to know that the people
from Harpo, Oprah's group...
:14:07
...TiVo every one of our shows.
:14:08
For what it's worth, I really like
your "Little Black Book" idea.
:14:11
-Really?
-Yeah. So don't cry in my soup.
:14:14
-So how does it all work exactly?
-You put your best shows in sweeps.
:14:18
The most outrageous, the most
provocative attention-grabbers.
:14:21
-Then they promo it.
-It's about getting eyeballs...
:14:24
...to get numbers, to get revenue,
to get renewed.
:14:27
We're beginning sweeps now,
so things are in the can.
:14:30
-So, what was pitched today?
-June sluts.
:14:33
Slots. Of which we average
nine a month.
:14:35
"We" being the drones. The APs.
When an AP gets a slut-- Slot.
:14:38
It's like a credit. You need
so many credits to advance.
:14:41
-And you have the most?
-Catching on.
:14:44
He's next. The only way to jump ahead
of him is if you land the live show.
:14:48
-Please.
-This month?
:14:49
-A week from Friday.
-APs never get the live show.
:14:52
-Karen Meskil.
-Urban legend.
:14:53
Anyway, if you do,
you're instantly promoted.
:14:56
-Wow.
-Hi, Barbara.
:14:58
Hey, Kippie. Great show.
:15:01
Let's not go there.
You must be Stacy.
:15:04
Wow. I am so unbelievably
sorry about what happened.
:15:08
Please. Let he who is without sin
cast the first stone.
:15:13
Hello again.
:15:15
Ira.
:15:19
-Nachlis.
-Yes, you are.
:15:22
So sorry to hear about you and Neil.
I thought he was a keeper.
:15:25
Kippie?
:15:27
-Sorry. Excuse me.
-Bye.
:15:30
-Who's Neil?
-My boyfriend.
:15:33
Ex, actually.
:15:37
"Hi, Barbara. How's Neil?
You must be Stacy."
:15:40
What's missing here?
Oh, me!
:15:44
You're right. I should get as many
shows on the air as possible. Be seen.
:15:48
Noticed by somebody. Anybody.
:15:51
Okay, so, what I'm about to do should
not be interpreted as groveling...
:15:54
...hypocrisy, or desperation.
It's merely a loss of personal integrity.
:15:58
Excuse me. Larry, wait up!
