Description:

TV Land is a game that attempts to simulate the television business.
Members can run their own Network, run their own Production Company, or
become a journalist.

Do you think you can create the greatest TV Station of all time? Do you
think you could fill it with the most entertaining shows of all time? If
so, prove it!

TV Land is an Online Television Simulator game where you can be the
President of your own TV Network, Run your own Production Company, and
even become a Journalist.

As a Network President you can cut deals with Production Companies to fill
your Network with the most entertaining shows, and work with them to get
the most entertaining stars. Put your most popular shows on during
Primetime and watch them go head to head against other networks. You
control everything, from which type of shows to go after, to when they
air, to how many episodes you produce, and even which shows you renew and
which ones you cancel.

As a Production Company you turn your dreams into reality. What a
futuristic Dramedy starring Jennifer Garner and Michael Chiklis? Then make
it a reality. Cut deals with the biggest networks to help your show become
America's #1. Wheel and deal throughout the season and bring in a new era
of Television Prosperity.

Just so you know, a Network President runs their own TV Station. They pay
for pilots, set their TV schedule, and get to do pretty much anything they
want to their network. For the first season we will only have three
networks. This way we can get started faster and it will save all of us
some headache.

A Production company translates their dreams into $$$. As president you
will come up with various TV ideas and pitch them to the networks. Most of
the time you will also be in charge of casting your show. ONLY a
production company can create TV show ideas.

A journalist is someone who reports on everything going on in the TV Land
world. As a journalist you can run your own column and report about pretty
much anything in the TV Land world. Interview Network Presidents and learn
what their lineup will consist of, or help create hype for up and coming
shows.
