The Forgettables

An idea for a Television show I am working into a Pilot. This would probably be a Teaser Trailer I would leak on purpose to Youtube, pretend it's real and work up some hype...

MARLENA HAIGHT

(important/imformative)

The Forgettables are people amongst 

people. 

You've probably met one. You've 

probably met a few.

They are the insignificant among us 

striving to be seen. 

They eat, they sleep, they are 

completely normal apart from the 

fact they are hard to notice and if you 

do notice them, after they are gone 

you will soon forget them. 

Even the Forgettables themselves find 

it hard to recognize and remember one 

another. That's why they are usually 

alone, wandering. Some doing good and 

others doing...

(pause)

...not so good. 

They make the differences someone else 

will take credit for. 

(quieter)

They do the things someone else will be 

remembered for. 

No one understands why they can't be 

remembered, why they don't register 

in the brain. They're thought of as a 

myth. 

Some say they are out of sync, 

stuck slightly just out of this reality. 

Some say they're aliens, or have 

supernatural powers, which allow them 

to hide. 

(pause, wise, sad)

Most don't care. Most look straight 

through them. 

(important)

If you don't remember me after this, 

trust me I more than understand. 

It took me years to know what I know. 

If you don't remember me, please 

remember my words. Put them in the 

back of your head like an echo of 

something you think you heard.

(the point)

The Forgettables ARE real. 

(the confession)

And some of us need to be stopped.

Forgetting it's not in true script format....tell me if it entertains your curiosity taste buds?

Yes I like this. This is well thought out and well written. It is entertaining plus it makes me curious about the people who would get invited on such a show. I truly hope you keep us updated about it.
