DRAMA: The Pilot Episodes
Dr. Penelope Douglas is an ex-forensic scientist looking for a fresh start in a styling western boomtown, but on her first day practising in her boutique suite, a young television writer takes his life in her subway-tiled bathroom.
A dissection of contemporary television drama through the dead writer’s eyes reveals to Penelope an unsettling connection between the forty-four-minute television hour and the disintegration of the human soul.
It isn’t until Penelope’s pregnant oil wife friend pronounces Penelope her baby’s spiritual godmother that Dr. Douglas takes a dive into her own unconscious to break the spell that has the frontier in its filthy grip.
Will Dr. Douglas be able to find heart in this wild new landscape?
Will she have to smudge her lipstick to ‘cowboy up’?
A contemporary western psycho-dramedy. A podcast in four parts.
