Overview
"Fairfield and Assistance are two original television pilots, an hour-long drama and half-hour comedy respectively. Fairfield follows the triumphs and woes of the Fallcrest brothers, Damien, a twenty-four-year-old college dropout, and Cameron, a bright but timid fifteen-year-old, in the wake of their father's untimely passing and abandonment issues from their erratic and absent mother. While Assistance puts generational differences to the test when a middle-aged and prolific talent agent, Richard, is reassigned from his home state of New York to Beverly Hills, where he must adapt to modern workplace politics aided by his new assistant, the office doormat, Jonathan. What Richard lacks in patience he makes up for in instinct, and what Jonathan exceeds at with thought he fails to match with aggression. Together they will navigate the changing world of entertainment and better their understanding of what the other has to offer." -- Abstract
