Dear Food Network,

 

The show I am about to propose to you will change your channel forever! I figured since you mainly have shows about food, cooking food, eating food, etc., it was time for a change. My show is called “BCI Miami: Blind Crime Investigation.” It is about a homeless detective, Harold Remington, who solves high-profile crimes with his sense of humor. He will be able to solve even the toughest of cases, like the ones that the police have on file for decades without a suspect. Remington was a comedian/police officer when he could still see, but lost his eyesight when he fell from a blimp in 1992. Rejected by society, he now lives under a bridge and is determined to redeem himself by helping crime victims find justice. His spontaneous jokes always have some mysterious connection to major crimes, something he himself cannot even explain.

 

Of course, this must tie into the Food Network somehow. So I plan for Remington to eat some sort of meal, sometime on the show. Maybe even twice. Remington (very loosely based on the character “Harold Remington” from my latest novel, “The Blind Humorous Detective”), is a big fan of French fries, so maybe he could eat them on the show. Afterwards you could give French fry recipes (Step 1: Go to McDonald’s.)

 

Please let me know what you think of this television program. I take my work very seriously and truly believe this has potential. If you do not like it, please inform me so I may take it to another network.

 

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Kevin Dickinson
