Tuesday Night Book Club

Tuesday Night Book Club is a candid reality show that began airing June 13, 2006 on CBS, which delved into the lives of a group of upper-class women in the Phoenix suburb of Scottsdale. It was meant to play as a reality-based version of Desperate Housewives, and the network's response to Bravo's The Real Housewives of Orange County. The program was executive produced by Jay Blumenfield and Tony Marsh and produced by The Jay and Tony Show for Magic Molehill Productions, Inc. The program was set up so that the women of the 'club' were to meet for a discussion of one book a week. However, this was merely a plot device in order to bring the women together in a room, and the book of the week was discussed only sparingly as most of the women didn't even read the suggested title. The episodes instead chronicled the day-to-day drama encountered as the women attempted to raise their children, maintain their households, and satisfy their husbands and continue to maintain their social standings within the community. According to the network, the women would "discuss everything... from sex to spouses to inner-most conflicts" during these weekly 'book club' meetings.

Store Front

"Store Front" is an independent comedy series from 2008, blending elements of workplace sitcom, absurd humour, and light mystery. Created in a low-budget, DIY style reminiscent of early web series or cult cable shows like "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" or "Clerks," it follows the chaotic daily operations of a versatile retail store called Storefront, which has morphed over the years into various businesses—now a music store. The pilot episode, titled "Opening" or simply the series premiere, establishes the premise: a quirky ensemble cast dealing with eccentric customers, interpersonal drama, and the recurring trope of discovering a mysterious dead body each week. This sets up a formulaic structure for future episodes, combining retail satire with dark comedic twists.
