I'm sooooo excited to pitch the pilot episode of Nerd Girls! Finally in the pilot stage! You can see the announced cast right here. I really have a lot of this episode mapped out scene by scene and since I'm not completely done and they're kind of long, I'm going to post my scene descriptions one by one and just get small feedback as I post, then in the end I can get overall feedback. Don't worry it's not too much. :P

The title I have for this episode right now is "Nerd Girls in Town" kind of a play off of "New Girl in Town." I had a totally more creative title but I forgot it. Hopefully it comes back to me!

The show begins with a camera panning over a classroom taking a test. Then it shows Kelsey McQueen taking her test and her thoughts are heard to the viewers. The camera then shows Kristie Kim taking her test and her thoughts are heard as well. They are on different sides of the room. Soon after both have been shown, each thought that one girl thinks is continued by the other girl when the camera switches over. (Example, Kelsey: “…divide that by -3 and because you’re dividing it by a negative you have to…” Kristie: “…flip the sign and voila! X is less than or equal to…” Kelsey: “…1.5!”) The two girls’ thoughts are in complete sync. Like finishing each others’ sentences they’re finishing each others’ thoughts and once or twice they think things like (Kristie) “Oh gosh what would Kelsey do?” (Kelsey) “I can multiple this by 3…” (Kristie) “Multiply by 3, there we go!” Then soon, the two girls flip their papers over and look at each other with just their eyes. Then they smile at each other and excitedly run up to the teacher’s desk and slap their paper on her desk. They in unison exclaim “We’re done!” Then Kristie asks her if they can be excused for the year. The teacher is like “Shhh, kids are still taking their tests. Plus I highly doubt you’ve finished this final in twenty minutes.” The teacher looks through their papers and Kelsey and Kristie make this kind of face. :P Once the teacher sees it’s done she sighs and says “Okay fine, have a good summer.” Kelsey and Kristie then turn to each other and squeal. Kelsey yells to the class “Bye suckas!” Kristie is like “Won’t see you again!” Then the girls scream to each other “We’re going to Lennford!” The teacher harshly shushes them and then the girls link arms and laugh. Then Kristie says “Nerd girls, out” and they give the class peace signs as they walk out the classroom.

So what that scene was was the last day of school at their old middle school. They were taking their last final (once you’re done finals you can leave school) and by that time they already knew they were going to be going to Lennford so they were eager to just finish at that school and be done with it. After this scene is the theme song and then “TWO MONTHS LATER” shows up on the screen which will lead into the next scene. :) Hopefully you don't think the test taking thing is too much like How to Build a Better Boy, I totally thought of this on my own and I think it's a really good way to introduce them to the audience. Also, I want to change the elite school name to "Lennford," that sticks with me more and I'm really not feeling Bradford. I'll post scene two after I get a few responses. :)
