Title: That time they wanted to put me on TV
Post by: 123maxbars on March 02, 2018, 04:45:16 PM
As most of you guys are aware I make a lot of videos that I put on You-Tube. Even-though YT does pay me a little money from ads on the videos it is by no means the reason I make them. I enjoy the creative side of it and just the over all finished product.

Last spring I had a production company out of NY call me and wanted to make  a TV show.
Long story short we did some filming with them and I quickly learned that reality TV is anything but real.

We did make a short trailer like video though for the networks and I put it on you-tube today.

The real star of the how video is Vicky at the end, the woman who owns the tree.

You will have to cut and past the link for it to work I think,

I got tired of fast-forwarding.  Was there anything worth watching there?

haha yes it does, the networks scripted this entire video and wanted us to say it was worth 1 million dollars at first. 
the only good thing out of it was that I got the walnut tree in the end and plan on cutting it soon, 
It is around 48in DBH,

Is this like the 600 pound crocodile that 2 men could easily pick up and put it in the back of a truck?
I only watched that program a few times. But that line made me smile.

I watched a longer video from your channel that led into the story.  Good stuff.

I'd watch that show.
 
It reminded me of a show called Hillbilly Blood for some reason.

reality shows are the #1 cause for everything being gold plated. Some are entertaining but man do they suck for making everything so stupid overpriced.

We need Paul Harvey for the rest of the story.
I thought there would be more.

Was there a prelude to the video removed?  I watched it yesterday on your channel but couldn't find it today.  I was gonna link it for the critics who like happier endings. :D
