OFF-AIR's full pilot episode entitled "Changing the Channel" follows an awkward new hire's turbulent beginnings at a bottom-feeding local TV news station in Portland, Maine as it undergoes a transition to garner ratings. The show was shot (some at the CTN studio - http://www.ctn5.org/shows/2604) and edited locally in Portland, Maine and stars a host of local actors, comedians and even a former local news anchor.
Notes to stations:
At the present there is only the single pilot episode, though consideration is being given to producing future episodes. The full uncensored episode contains some explicit language (http://www.vimeo.com/10691612) and is therefore recommended to be broadcast during late hours. The current uncensored version is being shown on both CTN channels (http://www.ctn5.org/shows/2604) in Portland, Maine and recently (per request) at SRC-TV (http://www.src-tv.org/) serving Buxton, Hollis, Limerick, Limington, Standish and Waterboro, Maine.
The show's appeal reaches beyond just a local audience as it satirizes the dynamics of local newscasts everywhere, but taps into the local interest though Maine references and its setting at a (fake) Portland-based news station.
