We do a number of shows and can get inundated with calls and questions.
We give out more information with serious inquiries. Obviously we try to avoid people flooding our company mailboxes with comments such as yours.
Thanks. By the way, we are looking for crew members located in the United States only.

Flooded mailboxes

Does it make a difference when a yahoo mailbox floods or any other one, you still will have to check all those mail accounts don't you?

p.s.:

My location is Holland for the moment but i do have a US passport. The being gay and pregnant remark was just to show my big personality.

Mail server management

One might expect a MAJOR CABLE TV NETWORK has it own mail server access, nothing is more easy than just to make a new account and delete it when acquisition is done.

My son did something like this for the Discovery channel, I think it was. They flew him and a number of other people to Morroco where they built a Medievel battering ram and then battered down a wall. They worked pretty much for two weeks, had one day to sightsee, room and board was covered but no actual pay. He had a good time, it was an experience. Sam

SeaMaster Yachts
Please consider us over here in Ft Lauderdale, Florida.
The Yachting capital of the World.
We've been having one helluva time trying to build boats, between the
IRS, the EPA, the bankrupcy and the customers ,,,,,,
We've got 20,000 sq ft boatyard under leaking roof, a bunch of very highly
skilled boatbuilders who, I guess, are used to working together.
And we sure as hell can't afford the new rent without some help from
some Hollywood types. Plenty of boats to be repaired too, hopefully we start with mine.
As for characters, well, when you breath as much styrene as some of my guys have, and live as close to the waterline as they do,,,,
I'll try to tone them down abit.
Let me see the money.

EXPERIENCED builders

To paulker.
Not to pour cold water........on your dreams of starlets, hot tubs,
fame and fortune.
However in my experience
- so called " Reality TV " are code words for CHEAP and NASTY !

I could be wrong.........

If you do see any money - let us all know - and we will all
be off to Hollyweird.

Cheers

Boatbuilding show

I'd like to see more boatbuilding related material broadcasted, Don't see why the "BIG Personalaties" of the builders should be exaggerated in those. Last year we had the first single and pregnant woman in BigB. I'm sure she was choosen to be on the show becouse of her huge personality .....

Really, the people producing this s... are way more sick than the one's competing in it.

Please delete this complete thread!

After re-reading the original post, I see where this is to be a series and not like what I said my son did. TV is electronic Vaudville, where actions and motions are exagerated to get the point across to the people up in the peanut gallery. What would 'This Old House' have been without the 'Big Personality' of that obnoxious Bob Vila? How about that steaming pile John Madden or the airhead with the Bugs Bunny teeth, Katie Couric? Loved her on-air colonoscopy. Big Personalities Sell Stuff. Big Personalities help make the mundane interesting. Sam

So tell the truth..has anyone emailed the guy to be on the show? You can admit it, nothing wrong with trying to get your 15 minutes of fame.
