We approach documentary filmmaking the same way we approach our reality-based TV programming. We make great documentaries because we love people. We love characters. We celebrate American style. We find subjects who have exaggerated personalities and charisma. Imagine a sports documentary on the ESPN announcers narrated by the announcers themselves, or a nature show that profiles the nation's most talented domestic pets and backyard creatures with the same intensity as a National Geographic special. How about a quirky account of a bus ride across the country told by two “blue hairs” from Iowa en route to Los Angeles to see an episode of The Price Is Right taped.

We are currently developing a documentary that will track four freshmen college students through their college careers. Each student is from a completely different background and each student is going to college for a different reason. We will profile the evolution of each student as they make their way through college. When we compare their expectations to what really unfolds for them, the eternal question "Is college really the best four years of your life?" certainly takes an ironic turn.
