Things aren't looking good for 'Kyle'. Not bad, just not exactly good.
DotComedy in general doesn't seem to be pulling in much traffic, forcing it (I suspect) to tighten its belt, reducing its budgets. The official word is, nothing gets a second episode unless it brings in 50,000 views. 'Kyle's in a Coma' currently has just shy of 10,000. That's more than most of the videos on the site, but, obviously, nowhere near 50,000.
Still, we have other projects in the works, and we've built an exciting relationship with a great local production company. Also, NBC expressed interested in shopping 'Kyle' around to other venues. We'll see. I'm not savvy enough to know whether I should be optimistic or pessimistic about its chances.
For now, 'Kyle's in a Coma' isn't quite dead, but it's not alive and kicking either. Ironically, 'Kyle' is currently in a coma.
