So I received a message from a follower of the blog asking me why I can't ever seem to make up my mind on the titles of the episodes. Granted, they do change on a pretty frequent basis. Here's why:
When I'm conceiving the ideas for each episode or story arc, it always starts off one way in my head, then ends up being something different by the time I write it.
While I do have a general concept for each episode, I do find myself making things up as I go. As result, original titles don't always match the theme of the episode once completed. Or, story lines get shifted around or scrapped altogether.
Below is a list of all episodes completed thus far, with final titles and original titles. Just so you can see the differences :-)
SEASON ONE
Episode 1: "Anything Could Happen"
Episode 2: "The Boy is a Bottom" (Originally "GENerosity")
Episode 3: "Frenemies"
Episode 4: "I Love/Hate You" (Originally "Surprise!")
Episode 5: "Hungry Eyes" (Originally "Walks of Shame")
Episode 6: "Rivals" (Originally "Challenges")
SEASON TWO
Episode 7: "Making Waves" (Originally "People Like Us!")
Episode 8: "Cherry Poppin'"
Episode 9: "From Top to Bottom" (Originally "Role Reversal")
Episode 10: "Revelations" (Originally "And the Winner Is...")
Episode 11: "Welcome to TRiX"
Episode 12: "The Golden Cocks"
Episode 13: "Say Something" (Originally "Decisions of Consequence")
SEASON THREE
Episode 14: "Full Disclosure"
Episode 15: "dra-matiX.com"
Episode 16: "The Boyfriend Series"
Episode 17: "The King of Kings"
Episode 18: "n/a" (Note: The title of this episode will not be revealed until the season is released)
Episode 19: "Demons"
Episode 20: "All of Me" (Originally "Questions")
I'll update this particular post as more episodes are completed and titles are finalized :-)

Episode 7: NEW TITLE & Mini Synopsis
Hey everyone!
Episode 7, the first episode of season two is now complete! I found that the show is definitely taking a more dramatic turn to kick start season two, as a wide variety of story lines are beginning. These stories should be very exciting and I look forward to throwing in a bunch of random curve balls over the first four episodes. Here's hoping everyone enjoys!
Episode 7: "Making Waves"
The movie battle between Dru/Austin & Reese/Kyle is in full swing. With both teams struggling to conceive original ideas, risque decisions are made to try and one up each other; Courtney & Jeremy's new interACTIVE talk show "The DL" debuts; An open casting call brings in a game changer for one of the teams; April gets a surprising offer; Ian's games are far from over.
Look for season two of dru-maddoX.com to be released on March 18th 2014 :-)
Until next time!

(Current) Titles for Episodes 7 & 8
Hey everyone!
I'm a day or two away from getting started on writing the first two episodes for season two of dru-maddoX.com! I'm very excited to dive back into it! The original plan was to get started writing today, but I needed to work out a little bit better of an outline for each episode's pace and such. Felt a little off.
By now, you've all discovered that I can never really decide on the titles for the episodes and actually stick with them, but I think I've got episodes 7 & 8's titles pretty much locked in.
Episode 7 is currently titled: " People Like Us "
Episode 8 is currently titled: " Cherry Poppin' "
I'm really looking forward to episode 8, as it features a lot of the "scenes" for Reese's movie. I spent a good amount of time trying to make his movie something way outside the box. Fingers crossed what I've come up with, works! :-)
The only other episode to have a tentative title so far is episode 10. That episode is currently slated to reveal the winner of the movie battle between Dru/Austin and Reese/Kyle, as well as bring several story-lines to a close, while kick-starting a whole bunch of new ones that will carry over into season three :-)
Hopefully the next time you hear from me, it'll be with an announcement that episode 7 is completed! Once done, I'll post the mini-synopsis of the episode and start teasing you with little facts here and there building up to the release in March :-)
Until next time!

Season Two & Beyond Update
Hey everyone,
I feel like a broken record, apologizing again for being so MIA from the blog - but unfortunately there just hasn't been time. :-(
But, I'm here now and have a few more updates on the upcoming season two, as well as some news regarding the future of dru-maddoX.com!
Prep for season two is virtually done at this point. I'm one of those weird writers that starts at the end and works my way back to the beginning. I always found it was easier to know how everything was going to end and then work everything out leading up to that ending. Most that have read season one's cliffhanger said it literally came out of left field and they truly enjoyed that. Lemme tell ya - season two's cliffhanger - quite the doozy! It will quite literally change the entire landscape of the series and propel it in a completely different direction.
Which also leads to, in my mind anyways, some more exciting news! Coming up with this doozy of a cliffhanger left my mind wandering on if I went with it, where would it all go? Thankfully, I loved the cliffhanger enough, that it led me to do some initial mapping out of seasons three AND four! That's right - it's official - dru-maddoX.com will have at least four seasons! Beyond that, well, we'll see what I can come up with - but the way it's all currently laid out, the series will have come full circle by the end of season four.
In some updated season two character news - 2 new recurring characters will be introduced, 4 season one recurring characters will return, as well as an expanded role for a character you already know:
**EXPANDED**

**EXPANDED**
- Jeremy Lockwood - Everyone's favorite bottom Jeremy, who appeared in 4 episodes of season one, A) Finally has a last name and B) Will be working very closely with Courtney on a new feature of interACTIVE as well as replace "Joe" as webmaster and cameraman for the site. Jeremy will still appear on camera every now and then, but will mostly take a behind-the-scenes role moving forward.
**RETURNING**
- May Flowers - May will return to stir the pot with April, as well as become an asset to....Kyle?
- Tony & RJ - Look for Austin's boys to make some more appearances throughout season two.
- Ian Andrews - Ian will make at least two appearances before his storyline wraps up. How that gets wrapped up though, that's the fun part! :-)
**NEW**
- Brody McIver - A new model for the site. Look for him to make waves in his debut on the site when he gets cast opposite Reese in Reese's movie.
- "Nick" - That's all I'm going to give you on this character. Any more information than that, might ruin the surprise ;-)
Hopefully the two week wait for this update was worth it! Current plans have me writing episode 7 (the first of season two) over the Thanksgiving weekend. With any luck, I can knock out episode 8 while I'm at it :-)
Until next time!
