Hey, all! I just emailed Comedy Central last night to inquire as to how to get in touch with Matt and Trey. Mainly, just so I could get some people here at home off my ass about seeing if they would use my fanfics as real episodes. Anyway, I'm not going to hold my breath about this, but, I would appreciate it if you would cross your fingers, or toes, or whatever else you want to cross for me. Thanks!

i thought that there was some reason saying they can't use your ideas and such if you post them on the net. its probably more to protect them from being sued... but if you're gonna give them permission, anything could happen. don't feel bad if they don't use your stuff, they probably have loads of their own material. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- "I love you guys... ah screw you guys!"

They asked the same thing on alt.tv.simpsons. They won't even glance at unsolicited scripts unless they are sent in by an agent because Comedy Central is liable to be sued if anything in their episodes even remotely resembles something that was in a script that they read.

The thing is, how can we sue them, considering we're using THEIR copyrighted characters in our 'fics?
whats wrong with that

I didn't... it's sorta a dumb thing to do, as we would go into spasms of delight if they actually used one of our ideas. I'd rather write real stories any day. (withdraws into the land of hoggits, illiterature and beer)
