Congrats on making the top 55 and I hope you move on! You've done a lot with such a short lead time and your concepts is definitely unique!

Great job making top 55, There is some stiff competition out there and more than a few laughs. I think you will be in the Top 15 ! Good luck

This is an interesting hook!! Congrats on making the top 55 and good luck in the rest of the voting. Wishing you the best in the competition, your good friend Sharon.

At first, I thought it sounded like a Canadian "Dead Like Me", but while it might have vague similarities, it looks like something all its own, and that something is funny.

I hope the teams with the machines behind them on social media don't push the great ideas out of the top 15. Are you reading this CBC? #killingittv is great!

I have to hand it to the people who put this competition together. In a million years I never would have checked this out on my own account, but they make it a game with points and voting and all that. Suddenly in checking out videos like this and quite enjoying them. I hope I see this able in the top 15. Over all I epiphany say you guys are well. Killing it.

I've loved the premise from day one and I'm really looking forward to what you can do with it moving forward. I expect to see you in the top 15 and am excited to see much more.

Quite the competition from the east to the west coast and such an excellent group of participants makes it hard to pick just 15. I hope CBC gives you each a coffee mug or something for getting to the top 55. Best wishes to all.

people using the word "concept" like it's a cliche brah, i think i agree with them but for the reason that death is something that will touch us all and all y'all reading this will be no more some day. good to laugh about

This show sounds like a really interesting concept, and you did a good job bringing that across and showing why people will like this show. Good luck!

Hey guys congrats at making the top 55. Good luck with the next step!

Well the final hours of the vote to get to the next level are approaching now so it is up to the voters now to get you there. Best wishes to you for success and nice work on getting through to the top 55 for all those able who were able to get that far.

I really like the concept and the interaction of the characters I've seen so far. I know you're a shoe in for the top 15, and I'd love to see a lot more. Look forward to it!!

Good Job Guys keep it up and you'll be top 15 for sure!!!! Really funny stuff! Can't wait to see more!

There are not any CBC shows I can think of that feature unlikeable characters or cover such dark subject matter so this would certainly fill that niche!

Good job on this week's challenge. Good luck in the remainder of the competition. You have a funny concept here and hope you make it through the next round! Cheers!

the setting is really adding a lot to the motion of this picture. perhaps including a bit more musical and graphical effects can help you guys go a long way

It would be a great movie. I'm not sure how well it will work as a series, but dark comedies have proven very successful on the small screen, so I'll reserve judgement until I get a better look at your characters and quality of writing. Best of luck in the voting.

I think it definitely has potential, I saw their live hangout preview and the plans for the future are really interesting and funny and I'd put money on them to see it made!

The grim reaper casting ideas are so great. I don't know how you'll decide, but I'm voting for Killing It so that you get to. Decide, that is.

I get that you wanted to make your concept clear and I think you get a check mark in that box. But I do think it could have been funnier, so we know you can blend both without having to sacrifice clarity for humour or vice versa.
There are a lot of really strong submissions, I don't know how your project will stack up, but best of luck. :)

Congratulations on making the top 55 on killing it . Really liked your skull poster and the one where your voting on killing the 10 year old. This week doesn't seem as strong as previous showings. Good luck

Great stuff! Didn't know you guys had to throw together a concept/teaser so quickly. Very impressive! And any show drawing inspiration from Kids In The Hall is a show for me.

Interesting idea. I think there could have been a bit more comedy in this week's video, but it definitely explained clearly what your concept is.

i've always been a big fan of this concept, even since the very start. you have had my support since the beginning and once again you didnt let me down. the strength of your production team really shines through.

I love the concept and expect you'll be in the top 15. CBC needs to choose something that's out of the box to get some attention and press, and that's you. #davegrohl4reaper The writing is great ... and you're team is killing it - #killingittv

This video was fine, I guess is all I can say. Didn't get me hyped but I didn't dislike it. Not really seeing the humor from this video alone, especially with the stale narration, but the concept seems interesting, if not a little similar to Dead Like Me. Best of luck.

This is a great idea and a strong production. I think you guys will be able to take this to the top 15, and I'm excited to see more from this project. Hopefully the project comes together for you.

great concept, missing a little more humour!

Interesting concept and enjoyed the explanation and early take with deciding to kill the 10 year old. Just really didn't tickle my funny bone yet so with such a tight competition just not sure that it is worthy of my vote.

You guys have an edgy take on this competition, so congratulations on making it to the top 55! I hope you some more content to show us your longevity in the next round

I can only imagine how much work it takes to put out something each week, having said that I'm impressed with what I've seen so far. I really look forward to seeing this show develop further.

I'm so excited about this. Can't wait for the pilot.

well I must say it does have potential but for how long it would go before it got to be the same old death theme I am not sure.I kind of have that Jim Carry playing the Grim Reaper and I'm really not sure it would hold my interest for to long . Good Luck.

Really interesting concept! You guys put out a pretty solid video explaining the concept.. it's definitely a concept that could provide a lot of room for good writing and plenty of episodes. This is one project in particular that I will find interesting to see how you "Flip" your concept if you make it into the top 15. Good luck!

Interesting concept, I just wish it had actually "hyped up" the concept more, I like how you guys were able to create the idea so quickly, that is a challenge. I do enjoy the fact that your making death funny, it's not often that that can be done well; so I am interested to see how you can bring the humour to this idea. However, I don't feel you completely followed this weeks challenge. Where is the energy!! It seems as though you didn't recreate a new video for this week, just took to time to dub over it. Even so, it is a cool concept and I would be stoked to see you guys in top 15.

Congratulations on finishing the video for this week and good luck in all your missions in the future.

Here are my picks for the top 15, no particular order:

Human Town
Heir Heads
Depflies
Wharf Rats
Just Passing Through
Goons
Blackwater Music
Randy Justice
The Lease
Grahm Clark: Wilderness Man
Roll for Damage
Toronto After Dark
Killing It
Scratch Tracks
Dope Ass World

Congratulations on the top 55. I like the concept and it has the potential. I found the previous weeks funnier with a little more zing. Tight time frame – very true. I could do it if you gave me 1 month. Look forward to the next round. Good luck.

I like your humor. Your concept is an engaging one which would appeal to many. Keep up the good work and I wish you well making it to the next level.

Considering you guys only had three days to develop your original concept, you have done amazingly well. I hope you make it to the finals as I look forward to seeing more of your work.

I thought this video was really good and would make a great half hour sitcom. I hope you guys make it to the finals as it's great to see a team from Vancouver succeed.

Congratulations...not only for making it to the Top 55...but for finally coming up with a concept that can be laughed at...or with..Look forward to seeing more of your work. Good luck !

Thank you for making your hook very clear in this video! I think some teams have forgotten to be explicit on this. Unusual concept for a show and could be quite interesting to watch. Best of luck in the competition.

Such a great show concept. I already want to watch it and have only seen the week 5 video. Best of luck in the next round

Good concept. I agree there's humour in the most unusual places. Why not death? Wishing you all the best with your project.

Love the concept! Great to see some dark humor in this competition! Its also great that you have a brave sense of yourselves and your idea. Its bold to pitch something about an unpleasing topic to major networks. Best of luck to you guys!

One of the (many) things that I like about this team is that you've acknowledged that your show might not be for everyone - but that hasn't stopped you from standing by your concept. I think this show has the potential to really push the comedic envelope in a dark and interesting way. Looking forward to the online reading!

I like to laugh at death. It's funny. Cool concept, I haven't seen your project last week with the art and I really thought it was strong , good luck in the voting. _ Wharf Rats

Death does suck and we should have a laugh here and there. Even the most taboo topics we should all have a laugh good luck with this round.

Looks great, good luck!

At first look I wasn't all that intrigued by this show but this video has pulled me in! Great job! I didn't think I would be into a death centered comedy but apparently I am! Great job and good luck for the next round!

not a totally original idea (the Boys in The Hall) but the Grim Reaper is an iconic character. I think there is potential depending on the writing and delivery. Personally I a m a fan of dark humour so looking forward to see what develops.

I like the gallows humour. The show takes more risks than others in terms of subject matter! I like the outside-the-box thinking. I'd love to see more! Seems like it could be a funny show.

Great idea to get dialogue happening about death using humour Risky? Yes, but I get the sense that you can pull it off with great scripting Good Luck to you guys I hope you make to the next stage

i like the concept of laughing at death… as long as i don't have to actually see the killing. once i see blood, gore, or some scenes that are too scary, i usually turn the tv off. so if you can pull this off, keep people laughing, good luck.

You guys did well to put this together so quickly. Good job. Your idea for this show is ... a challenge I guess. Wow! Death is not funny...but you are creating a show to make people laugh about it. I hope it works... Good luck!

Wow, good for you for getting things together so quickly. And congrats for making it this far!! It is a clever premise because as long as your creativity holds the stories can go any where. good luck!!

I don't know. I don't find death that funny. I congrats you on your show being put together three days before launch and making it through to the top 55. Hope you do well, but I am not in this.

I can only imagine the amount of work that goes into putting these clips out each week. I've loved what you've put out so far and look forward to your continued success in the top 15.

Congratulations on making it to the Top 55 and I good lucking on making it to the Top 15!! I absolutely love the idea behind this. Something new and ironically refreshing!

As an CineCoup alumni, I know how hard it is to compete with teams who already have footage to pull from. It can actually work to your advantage to keep it fresh, so keep going! Good luck and love your tag line.

It seems to me that you are doing a lot more with a lot less than many of the other teams and for that alone I applaud you. I hope you get the chance to keep showing us more of this unique idea!

Good writing is key, you seem to have that, next comes the execution with the actors (casting) that is huge, and without that in place it is hard to really see what your show could be (especially to the general fan base who may have a hard time knowing a funny joke that is poorly delivered). Good luck this is a very strong premise, though it may where thin very fast as a episodic without some bigger story and character arcs.

As someone around the age of the guy on the bench, I'm one you have definitely pissed off.

Congratulations on making the top 55 teams in the comedy coup pitch contest, and good luck going forward as they decide the top 15.

This video is a great example of how you are, indeed, killing it. Keep up the great work, and I hope to see you in the Top 15 next week! Break a leg, kiddos! On the real though, don't kill anybody.

Great video, I thought it was very well structured and got to the point of this weeks mission. Congratulations for getting to the top 55, it seems like your team has the potential to get much further in this competition.

You conveyed your concept very well. Your concept has intrigued me and I hope to continue to see more from your group throughout this challenge. Good luck with the following weeks to come!

I like seeing a team of writers tackle existentialism with comedy. If you can pull this off it would make history. Happy to be a part of this, go team! Make it as obscene and horrifyingly entertaining as possible!

I wasn’t super excited about your show idea in the beginning, but this week’s video intrigued me a little. I’m curious to see how you would develop this into a show. Good luck!

It's refreshing to see a group who kind of "got" this week's challenge. This is the only video of yours that I've seen, but I know exactly what your show is about, and I now have an idea of who you are and what you're capable of. I also like that you're not afraid to offend people. A lot of other pitches have been deliberately (and sadly) too broad, or have relied too much on gross out humor.

The concept and the writing for this project are both solid. The quick jokes are balanced nicely with deadpan humour. That , plus the structure and originality of this idea, definitely make it a show worth watching. I really think Killing It does what comedy should. It makes me laugh, but it also makes me think about death and quite honestly, I would rather have someone laugh at my demise than cry about it.... That said, please don't send the reaper my way yet or I won't be able to vote. Good luck for top fifteen!

You guys did s great job with the info but i found it to drag on, it needed some more funny, Other teams were able to do it and it's going to be a tough week cause there are some many excellent videos in there this week. Good luck with your online HYPE event Thursday night

As usual I enjoyed your entry this week. Glad to see that you didn't make references to current media headline news stories just to attract some attention as some of the other teams have done. Good luck!

See I enjoy this groups take on death. People are becoming more and more liberal with comedy and harsh subjects such as death, cancer, murder. I think this is an original concept and the idea of a "Chill Grim Reaper" is something I have dreamed about seeing. I'd like to see them in the top 15 for sure.

Great video guys! I thought it was very informative and explained your concept really well. You seem like a great group of writers as you were able to come up with such an amazing idea for a show in the little time you had to work with. Keep up the good work!

You are all 'killing it' with your videos hahaha. Really a unique concept and I enjoy the different humour angle you have come up with. Death and laughter are great when you can get a nice mix of both. It's what makes a great horror film. An intense moment followed by a moment breathe and then laugh at ourselves. Keep up the good work and I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with next!

this weeks challenge was hard not to make a little dry and boring, but you guys did a good job of keeping it interesting. sell sheet is also really eye catching!

I love the idea for this show. It's definitely peaked my interest. It just seems to be a little less developed than other projects (as you mention yourself). I am curious to see how this turns out because the subject sounds hilarious. I just hope to hear about your plans for production. I think this is the kind of show that requires just the right casting to pull it off. Looking forward to seeing more!

Definitely one of the more interesting ideas of the videos I’ve watched. Looking forward to more entries from you guys. Good luck in the next round!

Great job with this weeks assignment guys! You explained your concept very well and it's insanely amazing how you pulled all of this together in just a few days. Good luck making it to the next round!

I think I'm one of those just not ready to laugh at death. But I'm very curious as to how you plan on making it funny in future clips. Very different concept.

As Monty Python"s lyric encourages us to "always look on the bright side of death", it is refreshing that this show exemplifies that aim. It would take a special kind of mind to take the existentialist concept that life is absurd and run with it. I am curious to see how it ends!
