This is a really, really good show. very entertaining and ceartinly something i could see actually airing on TV. one interesting element i think you got rid of too quickly is Catie, a ten-year old genuis roomate might be what Bridget needs. Bridget needs someone to but heads with and maybe even challenge her. Maybe also explore how Catie is intellectually a genuis but socially is out of her element. This could be very interesting... Excellent start, for sure. these episodes could maybe actually air as part of 8 simple rules in conjunction with the other stories... something to think about...
