Writers! If you’re currently working up pitches & scripts for children’s television, remember to dream big! That commission will happen if you just work hard enough. I think this story can inspire us all. 💫

Pups' Set For UK's Sky Kids
By Jesse Whittoc
Paris Hilton's animated series, Paris & Pups, has been adopted at Sky Kids in the UK.
The series was unveiled as part of Sky's latest children's TV slate for content releasing across Sky Kids platforms this year. We first told you about Paris & Pups over two years ago.
Inspired by Paris Hilton's real-life pets, Paris & Pups follows 12-year-old Paris Star and her five pups, the Sweetie Squad, as they embark on adventures from their luxurious penthouse home.

Let's get one thing straight during this week's British heat wave. The word 'humid' doesn't cut it. I know that this is just stating the definition of 'humid', but I feel that 'wet heat' is a much more accurate sounding term, even if on paper they are the same.

tired of the "#1 dad" nonsense. if you're a dad, stop treating it like a joke and post your actual national dad ranking. i'm # 492,018, which is actually really high up there, but more importantly it lets me enter ranked dad lobbies where i can get matched up for fistfights with dads of my caliber

13 writers brand new to television, writing 1 episode each, overseen by an experienced head writer and script editor. They can have experience in theatre, radio, short films and/or social media but it will be their first broadcast TV credit. Let’s onboard some new talent! (Risky but exciting!)

I don't want a story curated to me. I'd just watch This Life and ER on a loop if that happened. We need to be exposed to things that challenge us, that we may not like at first, that don't pander to us.

And when a woman would never be in the convo for a show about a story deeply personal to us, you get a snapshot of what’s going on in TV at a much grander scale. Look at the greenlights from 2024-2026 in the UK and a picture emerges. Some of us jokingly (kinda) refer to the phenomena as the 6Js.

I saw the headline about Believe Me, ITV's new drama, "Violence against women is at ‘breaking point’, says writer of John Worboys drama", clicked through, and was disappointed to see this had been written by (a very good) male writer, AND he's doing another one about violence against women.

In the last 10 years, the licence fee has only gone up by £34.50/year. In the same time, for the same deal (HD, no ads), Netflix has gone up by almost double that, £67.08/year. And that’s just for Netflix, not the ENTIRE BBC.

I only have one note about S4E4 of #industry. There is no way the British police would turn up for a noise complaint. The neighbour would have been told to complete a noise diary over the course of two weeks whilst Rishi and your man from Stranger Things coked out on the couch to Greatest Hits 80s.

A man with Down's Syndrome teams up with his old headmaster and they solve petty crimes in a Welsh town called City using what they know from their favourite cosy crime show, 'Death Becomes Fir' (which is about an arborist who solves murder in their spare time). Why yes, producers, you can read it.
