Call for Writers
10 March 2009
by R.A. Porter
We are always looking for new contributors here at DreamLoom, right now more than ever. See, I’m about done with TV I’d write about for the next couple of months unless one of the new shows coming up really grabs me hard. Leverage and Burn Notice are off until the summer, Friday Night Lights is winding down its season, and even if I wrote about BSG…well…there are only three hours left!!!
I don’t think I’ve got any shows in my queue until July.
I’m planning on doing some different things in the interim – reviewing DVD collections, longer critical pieces on some older shows, maybe doing a deep critical breakdown of Burn Notice as I write a new spec episode – but that’s not going to fill the week. Kari’s going to be done with BSG soon and that’ll just leave us with her excellent Flight of the Conchords reviews unless she feels some love for anything else on the air. And Tawnya is still mourning Dirty Sexy Money, I think.
So, if you’ve got something to say about something we don’t…why don’t you contact us with a writing sample and some ideas on what you’d like to write for us at submissions(nospam)@dreamloom.com.

I wish you had considered covering "Damages." The acting is generally top notch, the gentle pacing is similar to Mad Men, it is well produced and the various flash backs/forwards in the narrative structure always keep things interesting.

I gave up on it after the second or third episode in the first season. I thought everyone was great except for Rose Byrne. She just seemed to be drowning surrounded by better actors. Hell, I thought Tate Donovan was out-acting her. I heard it really picked up and I know a lot of people like it, but I didn't feel bad about leaving her behind.
I'm not opposed to someone else writing about it here though.

Baby, the last two eps of BSG are yours if you want them; not having to write about them might convince me it's not ending… (Also, I gave up on FotC, too, so I'll be done

Oh-ho no! I'm not stepping into your big shoes. You started BSG, you try to finish it!
Don't sweat FotC, but I would be really happy if there were something you wanted to write about, even if it weren't a show you were reviewing weekly. Your stuff is *fun*.
