No, I haven't hit the big time, thanks for asking. But I might get my first (and last) big break if I kick off during a rehearal. Across the street from the Poway Performing Arts Center (PowPAC) lies Poway Bernardo Mortuary, home of the reality series Family Plots.
I've never seen an episode of Family Plots but my sudden proximity to it has piqued my interest, so I will be tuning in at 9/8C this Sunday. If you've never watched the show either and you're up for a challenge, try figuring out the second season episode guide. Apparently, these things air in a Star Wars-like fashion, with Episodes 6 - 17 first, then episode 4, followed by 1 - 3, and finally 5. Even my DVR is confused: while it can find 4 episodes on Monday, Sunday's premiere is a mystery to it. Somewhere, a bored little Program Director must have done an impressive foreign dance for his paycheck. OLE!
I haven't met any of the folks at the mortuary, but I did stop in their parking lot for a photo. And behind the sign, across the road, that building you see is PowPAC. I'd wave to you, but I'm on the other side of the street with a camera.

I watch that show! Hope you're not dying to get on it. It's a strangely compelling show, as it a family run mortuary- and sometimes a badly run mortuary, like the day Dad took off in one of the hearses to do his running around- without his cell phone- on a day when two burials were scheduled. The episode about sensitivity training was genuinely touching- even though the effects of the training didn't seem to last.
Hey, can we watch our grammar in the comments please???
"as it a family run mortuary".... really, where is the IS?
For the show, it does say "reality based" on the info
