LA Writer/Producer just moved back to my home state of NC and am trying to get a series picked up that will hopefully shoot entirely in NC! (Series is about Eastern NC.) Interested in talking to executive producers with access to showrunners and A-list talent. Just 20 months ago our small farm-town drama series was nearly picked up by a Big-5 studio. CURRENTLY ATTACHED RIGHT NOW: a Golden Globe-winning director/EP (Friday Night Lights) who’s directed over 100 episodes of major scripted television, and a seasoned TV star (also Friday Night Lights). Script was developed in conjunction with an Emmy-winning writer/EP (Homeland). Want to talk to connected EPs who may be interested in working with us. I can share names and details in DMs, but I typically do not in public forums. Show’s engine: water pollution and climate change. Thanks!
Show can be an 18-49 yr old ratings juggernaut.

Welcome back to NC, Rodney Holland. I live in Eastern, NC. Greenville. I’m a Stage 32 Lounge Moderator. I wanted to let you know I moved your post from the Producing Lounge to the Your Stage Lounge (www.stage32.com/lounge/promotion).
The Producing Lounge isn’t a place to find executive producers for projects. It’s a place for producers to discuss things about producing, share content (like articles and videos about producing), and offer tips/advice on raising funds, setting a budget, on set strategies, and all other topics related to producing a film, television, or theater project.
I'm not sure if there are any EPs on here (there might be!), but you could email Stage 32’s Development Team success@stage32.com and let them know what your goal is. They’ll give you some suggestions who to pitch your series to.
Let me know if you have any questions. Hope you find EP!

Maurice... hello!
Thanks for the welcome back. And thank you so much for moving my post to this Your Stage Lounge. I did not know that the Producing Lounge was just for production convos, so thanks!
Greenville: I was looking at possibly moving there many months back, but then decided on Wilmington. I'm not in Wilmington yet, but hope to get there soon. Grew up in NC but never went to Greenville much, if ever, just passed by it on the way to the mountains. It's got a lot of trees though and looks like a nice place to live.
Thanks for the info on emailing Stage 32's Development Team. I'll do that. Thanks again. I appreciate you.
Rodney
You're welcome, Rodney Holland. There's a subheading in each Lounge that'll tell you what goes in that Lounge.
I've heard of Wilmington, but I've never been. Yeah, Greenville's a nice place to live. I went to high school here. ECU is in Greenville. Sandra Bullock went there.

Thanks again. AND... I just realized I confused Greenville with Greensboro. I looked at moving to Greenville even MORE seriously... I found an apartment and it was great... right in uptown... but my job sitch changed and decided to wait. My nephew graduated from ECU.

You're welcome, Rodney Holland. Oh ok. Greenville has changed a lot. Congratulations to your nephew for graduating! I took my SAT at ECU.
Have you thought about looking for EPs on IMDbPro? https://pro.imdb.com/signup/index.html?u=http%3A%2F%2Fpro.imdb.com%2F

Go Pirates! The place I was looking at to rent in Uptown Greenville was super cool... and, it was quiet, but right near a lot of stuff... and a short walk to the Tar River. Would have been great.
RE: EPs... I am on IMDbPRO right now, looking for EPs, yep. I use IMDbPro like every day and have for years... it's a great resource.

Rodney Holland Go Pirates! ECU isn't my team, but I cheer for them since I live in Greenville.
Cool. Glad to hear IMDbPro's been helpful. I don't know any EPs who have access to showrunners and A-list talent, but if I hear anything, I'll let you know. I bookmarked your post.
