Well, STAR TV could be the answer. You can't appear on the Tonight Show, Rosie, or 20-20...but you can be on STAR TV!
WHAT IS STAR TV?
A talk-show infomercial that features "real" people who wish to promote themselves, their businesses, or their products. It is hosted by a recognizable Television Actor who was the star of a hit sitcom on ABC.

WHERE DOES THIS SHOW AIR?

IS THERE A FEE?
Yes, In order to appear on the show the fee is $2500. However considering the cost of advertising and promotion, this major market exposure is a real bargain.

Dear sirs,
Wow, this has *got* to be some kind of ripoff??? This sounds too good to be true, I heard that you can't trust those on the Inter/Net, but this really sounds perfect, I guess It couldnt' hurt to ask for information could it?
I am a perfomrance actor in Nashville, TN, and i've been looking for that "big break" that everybody talks of... maybe I should be in the acting State (CAlifornia) instead of the music state (Nashville). But anyways I perform locally here and maybe youve heard of my stuff, I did a piece called "Blood of the Anthology" which was received really well by the critics, and I was also in the oneman show "Rebellion in El Salvador" which everybody loved. Many people here respect my unorth-odix methods of entertainment, although sometimes shocking (I peed in a dixie cup on stage, it represented the poisons in our society that we have to let go of like slavery anmd oppression) and sometimes I am sexual (I performed oral intercourse with another man onstage, which didn't represent anything per se, I just really wanted to see if I could get away with it ;) (which I did!!!), but I always go over well with the crowds here. I had an article written about me in the NAShville Scene, but no National exposure per se. I think this sounds great for national exposure. Can ou tell me what "Television Actor" is it going to be? Is he famous like Alan Thicke or sortof fmaous like Dan Akyroid or how much. I also wonder how many markets this is on? Nashville is a big market...
And it says that there's also four guests who get six minutes each, can I pick these guests? I'd like to interview some people that I think are very interesting and I'd think would make the show get higher ratings maybe, but Im not the Television guru! But i KNOW that my friend Jerry would make a great guest, he is the best mime around here, Or there probably. And he doesnt do any of that "trapped in a box" cliched stuff, he does original works like "capitalism unchained" and "bloated beurocrat"... stuff that others are afraid to tackle! I tyhink its time America wakes up... they've had TOO MUCh of bland television force fed spoon entertainment, I'm sure youd' agree as a televsion producer.
Anyways (I'm sorry, I go on sometimes) I would just like to know those questions before I invest $2500... because that is a lot of money for a working "stiff" like myself, I just work at IHOP!!! But if you could get back to me, that'd be Great!
Thank you!
