friends regarding a one hour primetime game show on CBS featuring gifted kids.)
Dear
Prufrock Press Customer,
I thought this opportunity sounded so fun and exciting that I couldn't wait to
tell you about it.
CBS is currently in production on a new one-hour primetime game show for the CBS
television network. According to a letter I received from the show's casting
director, "In this one-hour unique and positive game show, one adult stakes his
or her pride and reputation against a team of talented and gifted kids. Our
purpose is to celebrate young people and education by making role models out of
kids who are working hard to fulfill their educational goals.
"From geography to sports, history to movies, the kids will defend their
intellectual capital against these grown up challengers, combining their
academic talents to challenge the adult and send him or her packing."
The casting director went on to say, "We are looking for academically
accelerated and gifted children nationwide to participate in our new kids game
show. We are targeting well-rounded children of diverse backgrounds with unique
interests."
If you know of a gifted child who might be interested in this opportunity, the
following information will be helpful (each document is PDF file and requires
