[originaltext]W: The name of the TV show we wish to produce is Science Nation.

W: The name of the TV show we wish to produce is Science Nation.
M: Please tell us more. What would Science Nation be about?
W: It will be about science, all sorts of science. Each episode will focus on a different area of science, and tell us what we know, how we know it, and what we still don’t know. The show will have one host only, and this will be Professor Susan Paul from Harvard University. She is a great public speaker.
M: So, just be clear. Will the show’s format be like that of a documentary?
W: Kind of. It’ll be like a documentary in the sense that it’ll be non-fiction and fact-based. However, our idea is for it to be also fun and entertaining, something which traditional documentaries aren’t so much. Please keep in mind this will be a new TV show like nothing ever done before.
M: Okay, so it will be both educational and entertaining, and your audience will be anyone interested in science, right?
W: That’s correct. Yes.
M: Right, thank you. So I think we’re more or less clear what the show will be like. Could you please tell us now what exactly you want from us?
W: Yes, of course. Basically what we need from you is financial support. In order to go ahead with this idea, we need two million dollars. This would cover the cost of making all 12 shows in the first season for the first year. If the show is a success, we can then look at making a second season for the following year.
