Every TV Comedy Series starts somewhere - even the GREATS such as legendary writer John Sullivan's 'Only Fools and Horses' - and the question here is; 'Has this idea got legs'? NOT; 'Is This the 'comedic equivalent of Usain Bolt'?
Look back at the very first episode of many established and loved UK TV Comedy Series and you will not only see how 'naive' and even 'amateurish' the writing is but also how 'skeletal' some of the characters are in comparison to the razor-sharp writing and 'fleshed-out' characters of the series as it progressed and evolved. Yes - even the iconic 'Del-Boy' and co in the first episode - take a look. I am not claiming that this from Ellie Brew is anywhere near 'Fools and Horses' (which UK Sit-Com is?) but even now - from the promo clip - it certainly is highly comparable to 'Benidorm', and the collective experience, skill, guidance and money of the production companies is sometimes all it takes to turn 'raw potential' into the 'finished article'. I wish Ellie luck.

I watched the unaired "network pitch" pilot episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer a while ago (where Willow is played by a totally different girl ) and it's straight up awful . I guess the people it was pitched to could see the potential, though, and took it on whilst suggesting some tweaks. Such as firing poor Willow #1. There are a FEW shows that totally nail their first season but, to be honest, when that happens they quite often spend the next few years chasing their own tail, trying and failing to recapture what was great about it, and don't last many seasons overall. Ch. 4's "Misfits" is a prime example of that S1 was amazing, 2 was pretty good, 3 was "OK" and then it ran out of steam. TBQFH (sorry Lostie!!) ... Lost is another one. S1 of Lost is almost perfect. It never reaches the same level again. |

It has potential. It seems on an amateur level as Derry Girls is to be honest and I adore that. The lead girl seems pretty great, who is she?

But to answer you. From watching the trailer, I know I wouldn't get that humour, and that means I probably wouldn't laugh, which is problem when watching a comedy. |

For a so called writer, your grammar is quite awful. I'm beginning to doubt that you wrote this.

Looks really good well done on the production especially.
One question though did you get permission from Little Mix and Jess Glynn to use their music if not you could get in a lot of trouble regarding copyright.
