Wizard of Oz focus group


For some reason I can't find an embeddable version of this video where idiots in a focus group give their suggestions for how to improve "The Wizard of Oz." But you can watch it here on Gawker. The really funny thing is that these comments aren't so far-fetched. I spent 18 months working on a TV show in Hollywood and got comments like this all the time. Worse yet, these "notes" weren't coming from focus group members. They were coming from network executives. We had to pretend to listen to them. Sometimes we even had to take a stab at accommodating them. I was told that this is par for the course in the TV business. Good times! I look back on the whole experience like a bad dream.
