"Bulls N Bears" based on the comic strip!

[Sitcomwriter]

The workers in "Executive Suite" have made a career shift from making tools to maki ng trades. "Executive Suite," by William Wells and Jack Lindstrom, has been renamed Bulls N Bears,as familiar characters Jonathan Stone and company open a new brokerage firm and navigate the unpredictable business of stock trading and investments. Oblivious managing director Jonathan Stone, smart and witty executive assistant Helen Hopkins and the rest of the cast of "Executive Suite" continue to work together in the new Bulls N Bears Brokerage. With the same office humor that gave readers a parody of their own workdays in "Executive Suite," Bulls N Bears takes on WallStreet from a Main Street perspective. Bulls N Bears is a stock brokerage firm in a town where,as in most places, investing has become an obsession. The firm may be weak on research, trade execution and compliance with all those picky SEC rules, but it's got great cookies and pretty good coffee. Co-creators Wells and Lindstrom were inspired to refocus their strip by the surge of people's interest in the stock market over the last few years. "I was in a restaurant and overheard a conversation at the next table not about the home run race of the moment but about biotech stocks and dot.com IPOs," Wells says. "And it hit me - Wall Street, the stock market and investi ng are the new national pastime in the U.S. Just go into any health club and you'll find the TV monitors are tuned to CNBC." The cartoonists decided to make the public's fascination with WallStreet a central theme in their comic strip. To make the transition within the panels of "Executive Suite," the staff of U.S. Tech and Tool re-formed their company as a Main Street storefront stock brokerage firm called Bulls N Bears Brokerage. Bulls N Bears is about this firm and the small town and wide world beyond it where everyone is obsessed with the stock market and investing. It's a place where the market price of lobster is tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average, a couple wonders if it's okay that their child's first word is "NASDAQ" and a doctor advises a pat ient with high cholesterol not to add any more long bonds to his portfolio.
