Freshman Fall New High School Internet Series

Hey Drakoloid fans,

Jeff Henderson here once again. The creator and executive producer of many Drakoloid shows such as Diaries Of Alice’s Bedroom, Long Lost and now Freshman Fall.

Many people have been speculating and contacting me these past few months about “what will Freshman Fall be like?” “there are already other high school shows on Drakoloid so why another one?” “Will it be up to the quality of popular shows like Junglematic, Imperfect Patrick, ARTic, etc.” “Is this really the new Diaries Of Alice’s Bedroom?” and so many more questions so I am here to tell you a bit more about this show and exactly where it stands in the Drakoloid community.

Freshman Fall is a high school comedy show about four friends who start their Freshman year of high school because Freshman year in my opinion is always the toughest year because your 15 or 16 years old which is the age where your no longer a kid, but not yet an adult. So its a tough year and being the small Freshman in high school they learn to cop with the struggles of high school by simply having fun. This show is a fun colourful series in my opinion because of all the different plots that the four characters as well as the principal get involved in. We make sure that everyone has a plot in the episode and it gets really crazy/funny. 

The main characters are Dylan Jackson who narrates the whole episode just like how Alice Murphy on Diaries Of Alice’s Bedroom narrated each episode. You will love Zeke Tyson he is my favourite to write because he is an unpredictable character and Nicholas Merchant is a super talented actor and film maker. Bri “Brianna” Cruz is a fashionista she is also the stress of the group because she is a major over achiever. Keri Thomas is the head cheerleader and the popular one of the group and she kind of brings the whole “shipping” plots within in which fans I know would enjoy. And then theirs Ms. Rose who is the teacher and Principal Oswald who is the eccentric principal that is quite fun we have some very fun plots planned for him and you will see why by episode 7 and 8. So this show overall has diverse characters with different personalities and its quite an exciting show. 

People ask if this show is going to be another ARTic and to be honest it isn’t. It doesn’t have to have a popularity like ARTic, its a show of its own. Freshman Fall is going to feel more like a comedy that is for kids and teens of the internet. Many of these Drakoloid shows that have recently came out I have noticed has some profanity in it which is risque and can be fun. But in my personal opinion I there is nothing wrong with a clean wholesome show that doesn’t need vulgar jokes in order to be funny. I think Drake Vegas is planning to turn the Drakoloid network into a more kid friendly zone in the year 2016 and 2017. 

Thank you for reading this if you have, I hope I have excited you for Freshman Fall a bit more. We have many guest stars this season coming on that are quite the talent Leila Stroud, Hazel Woodley, etc. Im excited to be starting this next journey with you this fall.

Keep the support flowing.

The Future Of Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom

Hey, Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom Fans.

Jeff Henderson here.  The Creator and Executive Producer of Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom.  

There have been rumors swirling around about the future of Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom so I thought it time to set the record straight.  The Drakoloid executives and I have decided, unfortunately, to end Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom on its fourth season.  I know this news will be very disappointing for many of you.  Believe me, it’s disappointing for me, too.  

Why isn’t the show coming back?  There’s many answers to this.  Drakoloid  is going through a transition phase right now.  You already know that Carl In Cloud City, The Billy & Lily Show and many other shows are not coming back.  Drakoloid has many new shows in production and development that they believe will better suit their audience.  While I don’t love their decision, I have no choice other than to accept it.  As well some of you might know that Sarah Kellysen the star of Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom has picked up a new show which is premiering in spring of this year I believe. It is titled "ARTic" and I personally believe that has a genius concept to it about fine arts (noone thought of that one) props to Devyn Vest. The Drakoloid executives who’ve worked on the development and production of Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom have been incredibly supportive of the show these past three years.  They’re good people who want nothing more than to make the best shows for their audience.  I know it wasn’t an easy decision for them or for me — they truly do like the show — and I’m grateful for the time and energy they’ve put in to make Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom as good as it is.  Or was.  

There is good news.  We made 20 episodes for the third.  You’ve only seen 7 of them.  Meaning — quick, do the math — there are THIRTEEN new episodes still to come and Drakoloid will be showing all of them.  PLUS Another season after which will have THIRTEEN more episodes making a total of 26 episodes.

The next episode that will air is “iQ” on January 18th. In it, Alice, Holly and The Mice all take iQ tests determining what there future may be. At the heart of the episode is a touching story about friendship.  I know you’ll all like it.  On January 25th, you’ll see “Partners In Crime” which Alice, Holly and Ted have to try and return a stolen bra which was by accident.  Which the Mice are two steps ahead. You’ll also hear the FUNNIEST Line that Alice has ever said on the show in that episode — and why The Old Lady wants to know why Alice has a bra two sizes too big. 

In February 8th we have a BIG 2 Parter episode "Diaries Of The Hollywood" which is the biggest episode we ever worked on for a Diaries Of Alices Bedroom ever and it has a lot of big guest stars such as the BIGGEST European pop star Pixie Lott & Logan Messenger who will be playing a character that becomes a main character later. 

There are 5 new episodes coming in throughout March & April, including “Criticism” which Alice gets a WHOLE NEW LOOK and “Return To Fashion” in which you’ll be seeing Alice become a fashion designer and brings back in old fashion. As well we have a crazy episode where we go on a game show which its titled "Brain Drain" which comes out in mid April.

Our season  will conclude in early June with our big summer episodes “Road Trip.” & "Ted's Big Break Tremendous episode.  Festive, funny, touching… and Ted will be going to big places soon...  

My biggest regret about Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom not getting another season after the fourth one is that I won’t be going to work everyday with the truly remarkable people who made the show happen.  You know the cast and they are all incredibly talented and gracious people.  Sarah, Andrea, Drake, Logan and our many guest stars brought the show to life by truly committing themselves to their characters. I will miss our run-throughs and rehearsals and their pre-show rituals that I was fairly close to figuring out.  All of them will continue to shine on screens and stages for years to come and I hope they look back at their Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom days with pride.

Behind the cast were a team of writers, producers, directors, production staff and a tireless, phenomenal crew who poured their collective hearts and souls into the show to make sure it looked good, sounded good and felt like a show worthy of being on Drakoloid or any other channel.  We never settled for average, always strived for excellence, and I think we hit far more home runs than we struck out.

Thank you, cast and crew, for your hard work and passion.  These past three years has been the best professional experience of my life.  I hope it was as fun and rewarding for you as it was for me.

And then there are you fans.  Wow are you people devoted.  Especially you Shippers.  As this was my first Drakoloid show, I have never experienced fandom like I’ve seen on Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom.  I’ve been overwhelmed (and slightly terrified) by your passion for the show and detailed observations of moments that occurred in various episodes.  I am truly sorry that the Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom storylines won’t be continuing for more seasons because I know you would have been following — and complaining — every step of the way.  I’ve loved reading your comments about the show on Twitter, Facebook, Youtube and look forward to seeing what you have to say about the final twenty-six episodes.  

I did read some comments about Drakoloid after the Carl In Cloud City news came out.  I know how difficult it can be when some of your favorite shows go away.  And I get the frustration.  Try to keep in mind that the people at Drakoloid really are trying to serve their audience the best they possibly can.  Be open to the new shows that will be coming on in the next several months.  They may surprise you.  

In fact I will be working on a SPIN OFF for Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom which will be including another character from our show which I can't say too much about. As well I will be writing for ARTic and House Of Adopted Adam while developing a show on the Drakoloid Rated A Channel. So the Journey continues and lives on...

Thank you, Diaries Of Alice's Bedroom Family, for going on this journey with me.  I have loved every minute of it (almost) and could not be more proud of this season.  Rather than focusing on what we didn’t get to do, let’s focus on all we’ve done.  Life’s too short to worry, don’t you know it’s true. 

Keep Writing.

Jeff
