Introduction Kalamazoo FC (KZFC) is a semi-professional soccer team and a part of the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL), a reserve league for the men’s professional North American Soccer League (National Premier Soccer League). The team was founded in 2015 with the intention of representing Kalamazoo and serving as the city’s primary soccer club. KZFC is one of ninety-six teams within the NPSL, and the fifth team from Michigan. Michigan has recently seen an increase in NPSL teams, with the addition of three teams after 2014. Kalamazoo FC is the newest Michigan team to join the league and one of two of the newest teams within the Great Lakes conference. This conference is made up of seven teams total: AFC Ann Arbor, Detroit City FC, FC Indiana, Grand Rapids FC, FC Columbus, Milwaukee Torrent, and Kalamazoo FC (Kalamazoo FC, 2017).

No portion of this document may be performed, published, sold or distributed by any means, or quoted or published in any medium, including on any web site, without prior written consent. Disposal of this script copy does not alter any of the restrictions set forth above. WRITER’S GUIDE 2004 Season 3 INTRODUCTION A few to-dos before you come in to pitch. 1. Watch the pilot. 2. Read the book by Stephen King. 3. Watch the episode “Destiny”, our first season cliffhanger. 4. Watch Frank Capra’s Meet John Doe. 5. Watch Martin Scorsese’s The Last Temptation of Christ. Some don’ts: 1. Although Johnny should help someone in most every story, we don’t want this to become “Touched by an Angel”. We must find interesting, unique and fresh ways to tell stories. No preaching please. Find the unexpected twist. 2. Don’t pitch story arcs that run multiple episodes. What we need from you are self-contained stories. 3. We do not want to hear any pitches based on previously seen material -- whether film or television. Those kinds of story ideas occur to everybody -- including The Dead Zone staff. Johnny Smith is a fresh and unusual character, never before seen on television. We want fresh and unusual story concepts that likewise have not been seen on television. If it can be said of an idea "Star Trek did that" -- or "Buffy" or "The X-Files" or "Twilight Zone" -- then that is not an idea you should pitch.
