I can only stand not being famous for so long. It's like air--you can go without it for 10 or 20 years, but any longer and you'll die. My fame clock is ticking to its end, and I plan to wind it back up. Say it with me now: sitcom!
I'm really surprised I didn't come up with this idea earlier. After all, I already worked in TV, I have an in at the networks, and who doesn't like to laugh? Let's face it, America, I belong on your television sets at 8 (7 central) every Monday evening.
The story is about me, the world's favorite dolphin, and the rest I haven't figured out quite yet. My options are either A) I'm working as a plumber in New York, B) I get an apartment in New York with a bear, C) I try to make it as a theater student at NYU, or D) All of the above. I think I'll call it "Fish Out of Water."
I already started writing the pilot, and I'll give you all a sneak peak at it.
Scene: Unusually spacious apartment in New York. Flipper enters with landlord.
LANDLORD: This is the place.
FLIPPER: I'll take it!
LANDLORD: Great. Your roommate's back there.
FLIPPER: Roommate?
Enter bear.
BEAR: Roommate?
LANDLORD: Looks like you guys are going to be the best of friends!
Who wouldn't buy this for eight seasons?

no no no, you have to capitalize on the current trend of taking old TV shows and turning them into movie classics! Of course you may have to find someone else to actually portray you, but it'll probably end up being someone like Owen Wilson, or Snoop Dogg, so that's cool, right?
They already made a movie about me starring Elijah Wood and Snoop Dogg. It has an average rating of 4.9 on the Internet Movie Database.
