I really don't want it to be a movie, I mean I already have Temple Run and I've already pitched another one so I really kinda want a show, lol.

I do like the idea of Jonathan being extremely smart but was sick, instead of extremely dumb and never finished. That would make a better lead role, I think.

So let's say he's 16, but he's already going to college because he's so smart. Then he finds out he never finished the 7th grade and has to go back for a year- he's against this at first because he wants to get into college early, but they tell him there's no other choice if he wants to graduate at all. His mother is very proud of him because he's really smart, so Parker is always in his shadow, which is why the two don't get along. Benny is still dumb, so he isn't graduating high school early, unlike Jonathan, but Jonathan still doesn't want Benny or his other friends to find out that he has to go to 7th grade. I think I'm going to make Luke about average intelligence (on par with Parker), and they're basically equal all around. Maybe there could be an episode where they find out Luke is better than Parker at something and Parker gets upset because Luke is just like Jonathan.

I did think about the whole only-one-season thing, and I had an idea for a second season that might work, and I also thought about maybe saying each season is in the same year like Even Stevens and the first two seasons of Lab Rats did. But I'm also okay with it just being one season if it doesn't really work, because I really think the first season will cover everything I want to do with it otherwise.
