- Rachel Griffiths Makes A Valid Point
So You Want To Make A TV Show
Following the casting notes from Stevie Ray the Daddos set off to pitch the show to Alex Papps; hoping the beloved TV actor will play our lead role. Plus Cameron pulls some SERIOUS strings and managed to get the one and only Rachel Griffiths to hear our pitch for her to play our leading female role of Stephanie. The only problem is… we’ve not actually written much of that character yet! Good thing the wonderful Libby Butler is a phone call away to help out!

- Auditions & Callbacks: Let's Find Our Cast
So You Want To Make A TV Show
Getting actors to star in our TV show is going to be hard because so far our budget leaves a lot to be desired. Andrew and Cameron speak to agent Eloise Georgaris and Casting Associate Stevie Ray to find out the dos and don'ts of the casting process – including what to do if you’ve already done some of the "don'ts".

- Let's Write This Thing!
So You Want To Make A TV Show
It’s great to have a concept and a show-runner, but we don’t have any scenes yet! Andrew and Cameron call up Sarah Smith to pick her story-telling mind about where they should go to next, before enlisting the help of Libby Butler and Joe Murphy for their very first writers room. Joe has worked on 'Younger' and 'Emily In Paris', and Libby has crafted tales for hit soap 'Neighbours' and 'Loving Captivity'. They’ve got SERIOUS skills and give the Daddos brothers a few lessons in how to make your story great (and common tropes and mistakes to avoid).

E - Who's Gonna Steer This Showbiz Ship?
So You Want To Make A TV Show
So we've got our idea, now how do we get it off the ground? With a Show-runner of course! The Daddos call up three of the biggest, brightest and most-likely-to-answer-when-we-called producers; Anne Robinson, Michael Petroni, and Tania Chambers. We find out what a show-runner is, and try to find one for our little show that could! And keep our chin up despite an acceptance that turned into a rejection, a reluctant acceptance and one that came with a reasonable amount of caution.
