I had forgotten about that episode of ...Hi Monica. I had forgotten about that episode of the Martha's Apprentice, but it's coming back to me now. I think the main difference between that show and what I'm proposing is that Martha's contestants weren't really writers, so the best manuscript of a bad lot was chosen by Anne Schwartz. My idea is more like Top Chef or Project Runway, where people who have already demonstrated some talent as writers are eligible to get their "big break" by appearing on the show. Some people probably think it's a silly idea, but who would have thought a cooking or dressmaking competition come become hits! Thanks for reading!
