Secunda Speaks
Andy Secunda dropped by the Improv Message Board at some point. Nothing earth-shattering; he just confirmed that the production company which created the pilot for CC's new fall series recently filmed for UPN, Play Nice, will not be able to use Play Nice as CC's new fall series' title in the event UPN elects to add the series to its fall line-up, and the production company is looking at either Because I Said So or Like Cats and Dogs as possible new titles for the series.
I like the second one better than the first, but the contest is reopened. ETA: Best I can do. If it's still depressing, I'll delete the thread and someone else can start it.

What was wrong with using "Play Nice"? Did I miss something?
I honestly don't like either title to be honest, but if I had to choose, I'd go with "Like Cats and Dogs" |

I don't know..."Play Nice" just sounds so much cooler...something that would grab people's attention.
Are the two titles the only ones they're considering? If so, I like the second one better.

I had to read this a couple of times - at first glance, I thought "they" meant UPN, "can't use" meant not picking up the pilot, and "looking at" meant choosing other shows to fill the slots. It was all very depressing.
I kind of like the one with the cats and dogs, but then again I was never very attached to "Play Nice", so it's all good. And I'm choosing to take it as a very good sign that they are looking at choosing a new title - it may not mean anything, but why bother unless there's still a good possibility that the show will be picked up for the fall?!?

One of the names suggested on the board was "Enough Already".
I quite like that. Also, "Me, My Sis, and I" |

I believe that Like cats and dogs is also taken, it was a movie with cats and dogs(obviously) that could talk.

cordy_n_angel - Play Nice is the title of a cartoon so I guess it can't be re-used. Shame b/c I really liked it. Cats and Dogs works well too, i.e. they [Emma and her brother] fight like cats and dogs.
Sam - I agree with Platy, reword your post man, I got very depressed as I was reading Raydeen - The movie was called The Truth About Cats and Dogs so the title Cats and Dogs is fair game as far as I know.

Legally...Something? I dunno, I suck at coming up with titles. Wasn't exactly a big fan of Play Nice either, but I prefer it to the newest two...
Something about Siblings? Laws Of...Something? I suck man...

According to The Futon Critic, the show is now going by Cats and Dogs.

"Running under" the title Cats and Dogs? Oh, that sounds promising. I'm gonna just play like it is.
(MY POWERS OF POSITIVE THINKING ARE REAL!!! DO NOT MOCK THEM!!!!1111!) Thanks, Booklover!
