Casting Calls

Two reality series and one broadcast series are looking for talent. Do you fit the bill? If not you, maybe your baby or your mother. These TV series are looking for them all:

Everyday Edisons, season 4 (PBS):
Do you have a great idea for a practical need? Are you the next White-Out Queen, hook & loop king (aka, Velcro) or just have the one, new thing the rest of the world didn't know it needed? Then Everyday Edisons is looking for you.

The PBS series is casting for 10 contestants. You pitch your fabulous idea, they pluck you from obscurity, help you develop your idea from drawing board to product placement, and the rest is eureka history.

From the press release: "We are casting for product innovations for children, pets, home, kitchen, bath, hardware and tools, DIY, fitness and outdoors, and for health, wellness and beauty."

Casting closes in January. No specific date was offered.

Raising Hope "Casting Crawl" (Fox):

Babies 3 years-old and younger are invited to a "casting crawl" to win a cameo appearance in the Fox comedy, Raising Hope.
