Hit the MARC News.
Hey guys.
So, first and foremost, here’s our latest, and also our very last, “While We Wait” minisode of Hit the MARC.
This new minisode is dear to my heart because of the subject, and also, because it features two new songs which I wrote, and were composed and performed on the minisode by the talented Jackson Eather, aka – Davie.
The songs will be on YouTube soon-ish, until then, and for a week only, we offer an mp3 download link.
You can get “Davie’s Emotions Song” right here. The other song will be up probably tomorrow and you can check our Facebook/Twitter later in for a download link to that one.

On another awesome note, the wonderful Kerrin Drexler started recapping the show on her Tumblr blog. It’s such a good way to be re-introduced, hear about what’s going on on the show, or simply be reminded of some special moments. We (being the cast and crew) really enjoyed reading them, and will keep on doing so. She also made some GIFs. We wanna put out there that we totally encourage any sort of fan art and whatnot! Anyways, we added a link to the recaps on the main show page here on this very website. And also, here’s a link as well.

Last but not list, here’s a… press release of a sort, I suppose.
The show is coming to an end very very soon. Basically, we have the season/series finale left. Yes, we’ll have a blooper reel and whatnot, but that’s pretty much it.
It might not be up in 2 weeks, but within a month we hope. We’re missing just tiny bits of material.
But it’s coming and we hope you’d love it just as much as we did, it’s been an amazing journey, one that we will conclude when it’s time.
In the mean time, a bit about the present and the future.
First of all, there was another “While We Wait” minisode planned, but sadly, due to conflict of schedules, I had to cut it. Which is something I can promise you is heart breaking for a script writer.
I’m still hoping one day we can have it in some sort of a format, and it’ll always be our “missing minisode”, which, in a way, makes it more hard core, don’t you think? (The language of this post if very professional, so much for a press release.)
I’m not going to make any promises I can’t keep, I’m just going to tell you I will try.
Which is also regarding the future. The show is ending mainly because of technical things. Its both an amazing and an exhausting experience to be the person behind a whole creation, and this 8 episodes + 12 minisodes season, took us nearly 2 years to do. I want it to be better, I want it to improve and grow, and right now, with a talented cast the is always in and out of town, and with no budget, I can’t give this to you, and I can’t do it in a way that’ll make me proud.
So, I know some of the story lines won’t be entirely resolved, and yes, I started writing material for another season months ago, but we won’t be doing more in the near future. In the further future? You never know. There’s more than one way to revive/continue a project (hell, look at Arrested Development!), and since I have so much love for this story, I promise to consider my options with it every now and then.
Thank you guys, from all around the world, so much for your ongoing love and support for the show. We had viewers from over 125 countries, and it’s just mind blowing for us. We got to have guest stars who were on shows like SVU and Boardwalk Empire, and I got to work with so much talent. I feel very blessed, as I know my cast is, and when it’s time to really sum up, we’ll do just that, but in the meantime, we wanted to keep you in the loop.
Have a lovely May, it’s starting to look really summer-y here in NYC!
Until we post again!
