After nearly two years of Ladybrille Man Alum Paul Carrick Brunson working on his television project, ABC has cleared it to air as a one-hour special this coming Saturday, May 27th at 10 pm Eastern Standard Time (ET)!
“I can’t express in written word how special but at the same time how hard the process has been for me personally,” said Brunson in a statement to Ladybrille. “Being in limbo for the last year, not knowing if this project (that so many talented crew members literally gave blood, sweat, and tears towards) would ever make it on air, was tough. The pressure really built up in just the last few weeks, leaving me feeling like I was walking on that thin line between being upset and depressed. BUT I made it through the storm!”
We are so proud of this brilliant man! The show airs on Saturday, May 27th at 10p ET but tells us it is only a pilot. To get more episodes, Brunson will need as much help from the Ladybrille community. Here are three ways he explains you can help:
“1) Set your DVR or TiVo to record ABC May 27th at 10p ET (it will be listed as either “20/20” or “Help! I Need Love”). If you live in a country that doesn’t get ABC, please download the app and watch.
2) Host a watch party! If you plan on hosting a launch party with 20 or more people, I will call in to thank you and everyone attending personally. Please email Joi Wilson if you plan to host a party.
3) Become an ambassador for the show! It will take less than an hour of your time and will be very helpful. Please email Kaywanda Lamb to join us! ”
