Braxypad That sounds WAY too coincidental to me. There are several towns with the name "Eureka" but taken all together, that sounds very much like a rip-off to me. (Unless Dan sold to them, in which case good for him!)
Site Administrator Graeme Posted January 17, 2007 Site Administrator Posted January 17, 2007 There are lawyers who are members here. I'm sure one of them will send a letter on Dan's behalf, if he asks.
Altimexis Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 I'm guessing there may well be a gay writer on the staff of the show, or at least someone who is familiar with Dan's stories, but proving that they got the idea for a TV show episode from Do Over would be tough. We're not talking about ripping something off, word for word, but only stealing an idea, a premise. This sort of thing happens all the time. Add to that the fact that Dan never intended to make money off his stories and you have a really tough sell.
