Thanks for the update! I'd think the period setting would be an easier sell in the aftermath of Mad Men, but then again, Agent Carter didn't live up to expectations, so that might've undercut anything pitched outside of "modern contemporary."

I wasn't aware of the show option until I saw this thread this morning, and before I got to your latest update, I figured you'd gotten a pilot that wasn't ordered for series. Back when I was a kid, networks would always burn those off during the summer, so we got to see some weird, terrible, and occasionally pretty good one-offs. That hasn't been the case for decades, so most pilots simply vanish without so much as a whimper. Looks like the new streaming frontier is changing that a little. Good luck with your show, and please update us when you have any additional information you're allowed to share!
