“THE PITCH” starring Paul Rodriguez and Mike Gomez

THE PITCH goes where no sit-com dares to, it asks and answers the question: “Why aren’t there more any Latinos on TV?” In case you haven’t noticed, the only Hollywood production Latinos currently star in is: “Honey, I shrunk the Latinos”. Using his gift of humor, Comedian Paul Rodriguez shares his journey through hostile territory, AKA Hollywood. Through his eyes we see what it’s like when Latinos audition for a part and how they’re received when they “Pitch” their idea for a TV series or a movie. He lifts the veil on the condescension, demeaning attitudes and lack of interest in Latino art and culture that he and other Latinos face when dealing with Hollywood execs. He also reminds us it wasn’t always this way. Latino stars like Ricardo Montalbán, Freddie Prinze, Eric Estrada and many others appeared in their own TV series. THE PITCH is a wake up call, if not a curtain call...it tells us it’s time to “change the channels”!
