So I’ve had a concept for a half hour sitcom running around in the back of my head.  Last night, I finally worked the plot for the pilot out.  It had some great concepts, it was going to play around with pilot tropes before ultimately working to a big twist ending.  I was going to start working on the three act summary tonight.

Today I’m poking around Rotten Tomatoes, and I see someone else is working on a project with the same title as I am.  Well great, I thought, guess I’ll have to change the title.  So then I click over, and it’s also the exact same concept I was working on, just as a movie instead of a sitcom.  Well damn it to hell.

I guess the only real consolation is at least someone seemed to think it was a good idea.  Several someones, actually, since it’s an adaptation of a comic book that I’ve never heard of.
