FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Not Enough Hours
Not Enough Hours is the newest television sitcom pilot program being shot on location in Orlando, Florida. Not Enough Hours is the creative project of Jamie Gannon. Most cast members do not live in Orlando which makes for an interesting twist of fate. After a national search for a cast and crew a dream and a vision came to reality. Think of Friends meets Cheers, Sex in the City style with Malcolm in the middle. Now you have Not Enough Hours. Just as Seinfeld was about nothing, Not Enough Hours is about everything - and everything else.
Not Enough Hours is the brainchild of Jamie Gannon. Gannon first developed the sitcom concept by reflecting on his own life experiences, turning fact into fiction with the inevitable exaggeration that befits good comedy. The characters are larger than life with dialogue intertwined from one to the other.
Laine is a loveable teddy bear character that wouldn’t hurt a fly. Morgan, Laines seven year-old daughter is the first female in Laine’s life. Morgan is the little girl who has Laine wrapped around her fingers. Morgan’s cute and sassy with style.
The second female character is Doris, Laine’s mother. Doris is a great character, widowed, and is outdated in her dress and appearance. Doris is lonely and demands attention from Laine and makes for a perfect antagonist.
Shelby is the third female to aggravate Laine’s life. Shelby is Laine’s ex-wife.
Mark, the effeminate apartment complex manager, brings a certain air to the sitcom with his antics and his jealousy over Doris and any other woman near Laine. His jealousy becomes evident when he gets into a confrontation with Doris calling her a “Drag Queen” which propels Doris’s character forward and into action against Laine. Mark’s charm overwhelms the cast as he playfully has dialogue with Laine. When an argument between Laine, Doris, and Mark ensues, Morgan gets the giggles and her sassy personality shines.
The final character rounding out this cast is Arlee. Arlee, the newest girl to enter Laine’s life befriends Doris. Together they try to trap Laine.
Each character is unique and adds special touches to the sitcom. It was a terrific job by Gannon in casting the actors to portray the characters.
