RiME Mini Plays?

So the idea has been tossed around a few times and I thought, why not open it up to you guys?

So everypony knows that there is the RiME Drama, 'When the Ship Stood Still' and now some of the staff are thinking about possibly doing mini plays. They can be non-serial or they can be 10 minute serials.

For those who don't know what those are, let me explain:

SERIAL: A collection of episodes, each containing a fragment to a story.
NON-SERIAL: One episode, one story.

Some good ideas were brought up as to what a serial story might be but now I want to hear from the rest of EqF...

QUESTION:
If Radio is Magic Entertainment had a show or spot dedicated to playing mini plays, would you listen to it?
Would you contribute your own stories or ideas?

If I'm being honest, I wouldn't, and just because I hardly listen to RiM anymore. I really don't like plays at all and listening to them instead of being able to watch them just makes it seem like they'd be worse. Naturally, my opinion doesn't change those of others, but a public poll is a public poll so I figured I'd give my two cents.

I would try to listen as much as possible, but work may get in the way.

I don't really listen to RiM since I don't have time to, however, I think it would be a fun thing to try out for others.~

Considering that this is an idea that I've been batting around for quite a while with, I totally would. Again, if you want to work on this with me, I'd be thrilled. :squee:

I'd love to work on this with you Sage :D
Looking at what the poll is showing already, it seems like people would like to see this happen. It's worth giving a trial shot in my opinion... or as the television business would call it, a Pilot episode.
For those on the forums who don't know what a Pilot episode is:
When a network gets a pitch idea to run a show, and they still need to make sure their doing something good, they will give the pitcher of the show a chance to prove that they deserve a time slot by giving them a one chance only shot to get a positive reaction from their audience. Pilot episodes are usually special presentations (1 hour long depending on the show being pitched) and will include a lot of the information about the show. Some pilots even go straight into the storyline (if there is one) and get the audience interested. If the audience is interested enough they will ask the network to let the show continue. This creates a win win scenario for both the pitcher (whose show just got approved) and the network (who gained more audience through this show).


So after all that blather, I would absolutely enjoy helping to produce this type of show and would wholeheartedly, put my heart and soul into it 100%.
Also there are a few ways that we could go about making this show:

Have prerecorded episodes that run either: WEEKLY / BIWEEKLY
Have live episodes (these wouldn't have sound effects or music in them because of the work needed to time it out right)

The best shot at doing this would be to do prerecorded episodes and I can edit them down to make them sound right. Everyone can easily send in their sound clips and I can put them into a proper file that will be good enough to air.

Ideas have been popping around in my head for a week or two now about what the plays would be about so that's worth getting into as well.

Hope everyone likes this idea :D
A lot of thought is being put into it.
