Two Years on Another Planet: ...or is it Alaska?

By: Bernknopf, David

A workplace dramedy set in the wildest environment on this or any planet. The team at Alaska's only TV newsroom try their best to keep residents of the largest, loneliest and most isolated part of the country informed. They do it while avoiding wild moose, angry bears, and angrier politicians...all while suffering through piles of snow and months of dark. You'll wonder how some of the staff at Alaska's News Spot ever got hired, but then, who you gonna get who's any better up there?

It's beautiful, but nuts.

Dan Rilman moves to Alaska as Executive Producer of the state's only investigative news team. He immediately butts head with his oddball chief reporter Jeff Taggert. Somehow, they must figure out a way to work together and cover the entire giant state of Alaska. Their most persistent adversary is Anchorage Mayor Maeve Grambel. One of her ideas is to give homeless people fishing gear so they can feed themselves. The Alaska News Spot newsroom is filled with hardworking, dedicated staffers, but not necessarily folks who'd easily find work elsewhere.
