For creative purposes, I like the idea of keeping things open-ended with regards to what we can write about. However, I think it's important for us to come up with some sort of running thread that passes through all the stories. I mean, something more than just the fact that they take place in the same nondescript, could-almost-be-anywhere town. Otherwise, it will feel more like a loose collection of marginally related stories rather than a cohesive effort. If you look at Meet the Cast, those writers worked within a very specific framework. I'm getting the feeling that this specific group would be happier not keeping things at tight as that, but we definitely need some sort of plot point to pull everything together. Otherwise, why even work together? The problem is, I don't have any ideas at the moment, at least not any that aren't totally cliched.
