A couple years ago, I co-produced a pilot for a half-hour comedy called
HALF-SHARE, about life in a group house on Fire Island. While the
trailer's been online for a while, many people have asked me where they can see the entire show. Well, now I have an answer. Tonight, the show will be "airing" as a free streaming program on the
HALF-SHARE website at 10pm EST. If you miss that, you can also purchase it on
Amazon.com at 3 different levels; $1.99 to rent, $4.99 to buy as a digital download, and $14.99 to owne a copy of the DVD. As an extra incentive to buy, 50% of all net profits from the sales of HALF-SHARE are going to the
Ali Forney Center for homeless LGBT youth, which was devastated by flooding during Superstorm Sandy.
The show has actually been available at Amazon for the last few weeks and has received an amazing 5-star review on the site with one word used in most of the reviews--"hilarious". I may be biased but I would have to agree. This show has an
incredibly funny cast, including Alec Mapa, Jack Plotnick and Sam Pancake as well as indie film star Jesse Archer (who also co-wrote and co-directed the show with Sean Hanley, who previously wrote for THE NANNY). So please check it out and support your local indie film/TV friends. I guarantee that, if you do, you will be thankful for the extra laughs this week of Thanksgiving! :)
