So guys I have an idea for an event with Wiki Channel that we can do. Now don't shoot me down with this idea hear me out first because I'm not trying to be like Disney Channel with this (this isn't even a thing Disney just does most networks do this).

So most channels right about now, late winter through spring, have upfronts where they announce a lot of their special programming for their upcoming season on the channel. I'm sure you guys are familiar with the ones Disney has done in the past. I'm thinking Wiki Channel could do this. Not only because it'd be a fun realistic thing for the channel, but also because this would be a really good opportunity/way to announce the shows, movies, and pilots we have in the works that were not yet announced. Heather made a thread for making a press release for all of the new shows coming but I think it'd be much better if we just announced it all at the upfront. Upfronts always come with a press release, too, so it'd be in that, too. Here are examples of press releases from Disney upfronts: 1 2

Basically, it would be a big Wiki Channel event, we could make a page for it. Here are the projects I think we could announce at the upfront.

New Shows and Pilots:
 * Leslie Wireless
 * The Family Plan
 * Becoming a Sendy
 * Genie!
 * Emma & Johnny in the 21st Century
 * Nerd Girls (pilot)
 * Storm Girl (pilot)
 * The Music Star Search Show

Movies:
 * Algebra Sucks
 * Everlasting
 * Finding Prince Charming
 * The Homework Machine
 * Temple Run
 * The Other Universe
 * Dub Step Dad
 * Marina

New Seasons:
 * Life with Twins season 3
 * Super Cool Cori season 2
 * What's Up With...? season 2
 * Ackerman Agent season 2
 * James in Hollywood season 3
 * High School Story season 2

Special:
 * Bikers with Twin (Life with Twins)
 * Anything I missed

Anything that's premiering in March probably should be announced on it's own though, before the upfront.

That's what the upfront would consist of. We don't even have to announce everything we have coming, some things could be pushed off for a later announcement. We could decide a date for it, maybe make a thread where we sort out things like the theme/slogan (there's always a slogan of some sort for it) and then we could decide what actors are going, who's performing (they have performances there) and we could decide what red carpet pics we want to use for our actors. Then we could make one big Weebley about it, maybe it could be in parts (that'd be easier). So what do you guys think?
