"The Search" story idea from Kim M., Brittany M., Melissa M., Lacey R., Greg:
There are 4 friends, (Lauren, Charlie, Tony and Liam). They met in their first year of university. Lauren goes out with Charlie, and Tony and Liam spend all their time trying to win her over. The 4 of them live in an apartment complex together in New York. This show is kind of like a “Friends” spin off.
On each episode Lauren spends the evening with each one of the men and tries to find which one is the best for her. After many days of dates, things going wrong and interruptions; she finally picks Charlie, while Tony and Liam are jealous and want to win her over...

FOCUS – A vague description of what the show will be about and who the target audience is.

TREATMENT – A detailed summary of your show idea. It should include character descriptions and examples of situations that they find themselves in. A description of a typical episode would unfold.
On each episode Lauren spends the evening with each one of the men and tries to find which one is the best for her. After many days of dates, things going wrong and interruptions; she finally picks Charlie, while Tony and Liam are jealous and want to win her over.
Lauren goes out with Tony first off and they go to a restaurant called the Blue Lagoon. Lauren orders the most expensive thing on the menu to see if Tony will go out of his way to make it the perfect date. The make the date reach it’s romantic peak, she decides to order a bottle of Krug. He agrees to pay for the meal and when he comes back from the bathroom, he finds his date walking out the door, arm in arm, with Liam. Shocked, Tony finds out that he just spend $300 for nothing.
Lauren’s second date is with Liam. They go to a roller-rink filled with saucy, stubborn teenagers, but Liam, being sporty, is excited to go roller skating. As they’re skating holding hands, in the heat of the moment, Liam leans in for a kiss, but sadly falls on his face breaking his nose and they’re romantic night took a turn for the worst when they had to spend two hours in the emergency room.
Her last date is with Charlie. They went to Tony’s mini putt. Disappointed, Lauren goes with it. When they arrive, they find out there’s no golf balls so they have to wait a half hour for new ones to arrive. When they finally get new golf balls, it starts to rain and they change locations to the Dairy Queen bowling alley. Drying off and upset, Lauren and Charlie are getting ready to go bowling, when they realize that Tony owns Dairy Queen. Tony greets them at the door with a smile. As they’re walking to their lane, Tony and Lauren exchange glances and start to think something is up from the sarcasm in his voice. Charlie and Lauren decide to leave and go back to Charlie’s apartment for an order in dinner and drinks. After a deep and emotional conversation, they decided that the decision was clear. They should take their relationship further.
Cool.
Is this a Feature Film, or a Mini Series, or a Full on series with several seasons?
It could be funny because they can all plot against each other and go ridiculous out of their way to screw the other guy over. Like, when they go bowling, they order some drinks or ice cream. After they eat it, the realise that Tony owns the place. Just then, Charlie gets terribly sick. Turns out that Tony has spiked Charlies food with a very potent Emetic. As Charlie is out of commission from puking his guts out, Tony then takes Lauren home. But somehow, he gets screwed over by Liam… who in turn gets screwed over by Charlie again. Think of a Lenny vs Spenny sort of thing, but all to get the girl. The crazier it is, the funnier it will be.
By the way, if a girl EVER pulled a stunt with me where I paid for dinner and then took off with some guy while I was in the bathroom, Id never talk to her again.
