SEVEN JOHNSONI, AND THE INSECT APOCALYPSE

Feature. Animated, Adventure Comedy. For a mature audience.

In the midst of an insect apocalypse, Seven Johnsoni, a jumping spider that can’t jump, ventures from San Diego to Los Angeles to enter a dance competition.

MEN’S LEAGUE

Television Series. Comedy.

A half-hour stoner comedy set in Toronto in 2001, following three small-town friends – Todd, Bird, and Higgins – in their early twenties trying to navigate adulthood in the big, diverse city. At the same time, the three friends compete in the rough and tumble recreational men’s hockey league, where they battle against other teams for the league championship, and each other for the right to own a 1989 game-used, signed, Wendel Clark hockey stick – of which, they all lay original claim to. Whomever has the most points at the end of the season, gets the stick. Higgins, Todd, and Bird comedically struggle in their new surroundings and ever-changing world, forced to grow up when they’re not entirely ready, and - like in hockey - will sometimes have to take a hit to make the right play.

Precious Condiments

Free Verse, Found.

Come in, George! Come in! You’re finally here

And I’m a mess. I’ve been beaten down –

Their indifference is chaos! This world’s

A long love letter that makes me want to cry.

I’ve decided to take the varmint’s path, George,

Become a nothingman – I’m spinning, Costanza,

Oh, I’m spinning! You know all this talk is making

Me hungry. Have you seen that crazy Mary from HR?

The elderly woman behind the counter, downstairs –

She brought in her homemade jam again.

She does this once a year and to be perfectly

Honest the waiting drove me mad. George,

I need you to go down and buy me ten jars.

I’d go but there’s too much chaos. And you know

How I feel about chaos!
