Quote:I think the general premise and idea are good. It's just the execution and design of the internal aspects that need work.

 

So, basically you're saying the show isn't good, but the idea is. 

 

Quote:Brutal honesty does work, sometimes.

 

Rude doesn't equal honest, same as being empathetic does not mean that what is being said is watered down. It's more effective to deliver criticism in a respectful and factual way. Partciularly when being done publicly. Private is a different manner, one on one. But to do it in a public manner doesn't work.

 

When someone puts their stuff out in the public domain looking for feedback, they're going to get a lot of both. 

 

Personally, I think the idea of a fan show is something that's been tried before, and I've seen better executions than this one.  What it would take to fix it?  Well, if I was going to be brutally honest, it may not sit well with the OP.  But, if I decided to be respectful and factual, I'd say he needs an entirely new cast, a more appealing title, and better quality production.
