The Film Pigs Are…

Unemployed, unsuccessful, or both.

Todd Robert Anderson is an actor of minimal talent who believes he is better than anyone else. He received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in acting at NYU, a private university in the public service (and by “public” they mean upper middle class white people.) Despite his apparent lack of ability, Todd has managed to scrape out a living as an actor, mostly in commercials as he is really only palatable in thirty second intervals. Through several miscalculations on the part of casting directors, directors and/or producers, Todd has also appeared as a guest star in a good number of television series such as CSI and WILL & GRACE, the latter in which he danced with Madonna which turned out to be no big deal after all. In addition, he has appeared in films such as BLAST FROM THE PAST and in the straight-to-video classics NATIONAL LAMPOON PRESENTS REPLI-KATE and DEVIL IN THE FLESH 2. He is hugely insecure and enjoys lashing out at more successful performers in these self-indulgent commentaries that the Pigs insist on referring to as “comedy.”

Stephen Falk received his BFA in Acting from New York University. As a writer, he has several screenplays set up around town, including THE PROM, which is in pre-production at Dimension and TIME TRAVEL FOR DUMMIES at Fox. On the television side, he has created pilots for Fox, the WB, Showtime, and is currently producing an animated pilot for Fox Television Studios, and co-adapting the hit web series GOD, INC. for the Sci-Fi Channel. Falk is also writing an hour-long for the USA Network and is working with Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence on a 1/2 hour for ABC (with Zach Braff attached to produce and direct). Falk also writes for various websites, including Television Without Pity and his own blog Plaintive Wail dot com. In his spare time, he enjoys obsessively faux-finishing the same wall in his rumpus room over and over, maintaining his Jeff Probst fansite, Probstville, and weeping softly while rocking back and forth. He has been married for 7 glorious years to former child star and US ambassador Shirley Temple Black. “Love you, Shirl! I’m sorry we fight. Please return my calls.”

Stephen J. Skelton received his BFA in Acting & Directing from Indiana University but doesn’t know where his diploma is so he can’t prove it or anything. He has co-authored a half-dozen screenplays with Todd Robert Anderson, none of which anyone wants to read. Even the awesome one where mutant alligators destroy St. Louis. To counterbalance the constant professional rejection he films Internet comedy sketches with Mr. Anderson, none of which anyone thinks are funny. He makes his living as a video game designer, having worked on AAA “five run homer” titles such as MEDAL OF HONOR FRONTLINE, CLIVE BARKER’S UNDYING, and CALL OF DUTY: FINEST HOUR – all of which you will be familiar with if you are a 15-year-old boy. He is currently the Lead Designer on LEGENDARY and spends most of his time making sure it is possible to shoot terrible monsters with machine guns – experience that will come in handy if the real world ever comes under attack by terrible monsters that need to be shot with machine guns. When not working, he prefers sitting near his collection of expensive scotch, gingerly whispering to the bottles that they are his only real friends.
