I’ve written an original sitcom- (Martha Stewart-Domestic
Diva). Candice Bergen’s character-Murphy Brown portrays
Martha as a dysfunctional, guilt-ridden, insecure protagonist.
It takes Murphy’s witty sarcasm to pull this off. Martha
and Lexi strive to keep Martha’s critics and her dysfunctionality
from destroying her world.
Martha battles against the media, to control her image, the
judicial system, because her case is on appeal and new found
charges of more insider-trading surface, while she try’s
to work her way back into the good graces of society. She
vows to make her stock rise again, to bring more advertisers
back to her magazine and to beat her fallen from grace image.
Well if Sears can find a kinder softer side, why not Martha.
Martha
sees a shrink about her newly found excessive compulsive
behavior- brought on by her stay at camp cup cake. Martha
consults with her attorneys Smuck & Smuck to end her legal
woes and with the help of Lexi and her friends-Rosie O’Donnell,
Penney Marshal, Melissa Rivers and of course Paris Hilton,
who try to easy her pain and aid her on her road to recovery.
Martha enters this twelve-step program that takes her from
her showroom kitchen to down on the farm.
Love
her or hate her, Martha’s definitely a lightening
rod for controversy, and her ankle bracelet is the ground
rod. I’ve written two episodes of this sitcom, to better
show where the stage is being set, the storyline possibilities
and the character transitions from the MSLO Omni media office
to her Bedford Hills estate. Included are a few illustrations
cartoons and portraits of Martha, Murphy and Lexi as a collage
or rather a snap shot sequence, into the lives of Martha’s
new family. These pictures, mostly satirical, endear us to
the characters. WGA registered, copyrights-all material. |
