  • On The Lot: Episode 16 (The Season Finale)

    POSTED BY MATTHEW FLUTE, AUGUST 25 2007 03:35 PM | PERMALINK

    Well, this is what it finally comes down to. After 12,000 submissions, several cuts and weeks of competition, it’s time for the final cut. The three remaining contestants are: Jason Epperson, Will Bigham and Adam Stein.

    After last weeks disappointing first part of the finale, you would have expected this week to step it up a notch. Well, this week did step it up a notch, but if you know anything about turning up the volume, a notch barely does a thing.

    The episode started wasting time by playing a...

    Now, I normally don’t get upset when reality shows end up tossing a contestant because of something unfair.

    But being a Canadian that applied for the show, it was hard to sit still when Zach Lipovsky was eliminated this week. As you all know, only United States residents are allowed to vote. This is strange, considering the show has always been promoted as the search for the world’s next great filmmaker. Ever since that first week I tried to vote, and found out I couldn’t, I knew Zach would have an...

  • On The Lot: Episode 13 (Fox Television)

    At this point, it’s nice, because "On The Lot" can finally breathe.

    Yes, it does know it won’t return after the final episode, but it at least knows it will make it to the final episode. Does that mean it can give the finger to selling out and let the filmmakers do whatever they want? Hell no. This week’s episode, which calls itself "road’" week is merely advertising for the shows top sponsor, Ford. There’s also the inclusion of a celebrity (sort of) with Jerry O’Connell appearing in one of the shorts.

  • On The Lot: Episode 12 (Fox Television)

    In the final hours of On The Lot, it’s fair to assume we’ll see a change. With eight contestants left, and after tonight, 6, it will soon become the most serious it’s ever been. One of the reasons is that On The Lot is clearly not American Idol, and for the filmmakers, it’s either first place or nothing. That’s not it either. First place ensures nothing. If Project Greenlight has taught us anything, it’s that the development deal is only the beginning. Pete Jones, winner of Project Greenlight’s...

  • On The Lot: Episode 10 (Fox Television)

    POSTED BY , JULY 10 2007 10:57 AM | PERMALINK

    Desperate for ratings, On The Lot pulled another quick switch this week, by airing on Monday rather than Tuesday. Even more desperate was the announcement that they would be eliminating two people each week from now on. So either the ratings were so bad they decided to speed up the show, or the ratings were so bad, they decided more drama would save the show. Since this is reality television, it’s probably both. Will this decision increase ratings? Well, being aired before Hell’s Kitchen certainly won’t...

  • On The Lot: Episode 8 (Fox Television)

    POSTED BY , JUNE 27 2007 10:19 PM | PERMALINK

    Once again, too add drama to the show, they eliminated this week’s contestant in an unusual fashion. This week, they didn’t cut the contestant in front of a live audience; they did it behind the scenes. Jessica went home, and although I was saddened to see such talent disappear from the show, I was expecting it, so it wasn’t all that upsetting.

     

    This week’s films were actually all made since the contest started, which is a nice treat, as it keeps things on fair ground. This week, we’ll...
