I was hoping the setting could be Washington D.C., but that was the setting in How to Build a Better Boy, Lish told me that this pitch is a bit like that already so I'm not sure. I kind of want to keep Mandy because I think she'd add substance to the show. She'll be in the same grade as Kelsey and Kristie, basically the girl who's everyone's friend. I'm going to change Blake's name to Alex and I'm going to keep Drew and Finns. I just think they all together all add substance to the show. 8 characters isn't too much, right?

I just like the idea how the show follows Kelsey and Kristie's world and all the people in the cast have a part in it. Like I can imagine a theme song intro when they're walking in their schools halls or down a street and walking past the people they know like the True Jackson VP theme song intro or the original Shake It Up intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tt_JFwfcGuc

I also want to change the name Lennyford to something else, I'm not feeling Lennyford. I'm looking for a snobby school name. And I want to make Kelsey and Kristie in tenth grade :)
