Coming to Life

  So I think I've mentioned before that we tend to have an extraordinary amount of free-time here in Taigu; 16 hour work weeks and what not.  As a result the usual ridiculous schemes and ideas that people come up with but never actually pursue tend to get a fair amount of attention.
  Towards the beginning of this semester we started a "TV night" where the American teachers would all get together and watch a select few shows week to week, to get our American TV fix.  One of the early mainstays was Family Matters, which we naturally felt inclined to because of our extremely close knit group here.  That eventually spun off into belting out the theme song while group hugging at dance parties.  Not too long after that Dan and Gerald began getting creative and actually wrote a script for a Taigu spin-off of Family Matters.  From there each teacher was assigned a role and the following is just a taste of things to come.

Actual footage has already been shot and we hope to have a full length pilot episode done by the end of the semester.

Anyways, what started out as a joke has now been fully fleshed out in reality
