LA People...take a look please

Hi kids!

So, I'm not sure where everyone is these days, but this is the text of an email a friend from High School sent me earlier today. If you're in the LA Area, meet the criteria, and are interested in participating (and hello, you've SEEN the handymen on the TLC shows), please contact handymancasting@discovery.com directly.

If you don't live in LA (probably most of you), could you please forward the information on to any friends in the area that do? It's more fun to watch when it's people you know!!

Gracias!

Hi everyone. I work on a show called, "Take Home Handyman" that will air weekly on TLC -- starting in March. It's a fun, fast, 30-minute show where a famous carpenter meets you in Home Depot and goes to your home for 2 days to do some simple repairs (and teach you some do-it-yourself tricks).

I need your help!!! We are going to LA to film 5 episodes. One is an hour-long special with all of the girls from NBC's "The Office". (I know, I know -- I am SO excited to work with them! I'm hoping "Jim" will be there too!) I will be casting the other 4 episodes in the next month. If you know anyone in the Los Angeles area --
please send them this email. The information they need is below:

1. You must be over 18.
2. You must own your home/apt/condo or have permission from the landlord (they will be asked to sign a location release).
3. You must have someone (roommate/spouse/friend/etc) that can be there with you on-camera for both shooting days.
4. Home repairs we have done so far have included things like: replacing the carpet, replacing a kitchen floor, installing crown molding, replacing a front door, built-in shoe closet, replacing kitchen cabinets and counter tops, spackling walls, painting, etc.
5. We LOVE personality and anyone that is eager to learn home repair tricks!!!

All you have to do is email: Handymancasting@Discovery.com with a little bit about yourself, your friend/roommate/spouse that will be appearing with you, any and all repairs or ideas you have for your house, why you would be a great candidate for the show and pictures of you, your friend and your possible repairs. I will be calling people back and will be coming out to LA to meet with everyone, do an on-camera interview and film a walk-thru for TLC (within the next month). Our tentative dates for filming the episodes will be the end of February or possibly not until April (when filming for "The Office" goes on hiatus).
