What is the “On Our Own” Companion?

The Explanation

The “’On Our Own’ Companion”, in general:

Simple explanation of what the “’On Our Own’ Companion” is…it’s a book, containing the episodes of “On Our Own” from the first half of the first season, including the two test episodes.

Well, Why Should I Buy a Book of Something I Can Read Online?:

Again, simple answer, to support us!  Real answer, because the book contains more information than that which you can find online.  We will not, nor will we ever, charge money to view episodes on our website.  This means that there will probably be a lot of people who will not buy the book, because they’ve either already read all of the episodes, or they will just as easily be able to read most of the book’s material online.  However, after the release of the book, certain explanatory information currently found on the website will no longer be able to be found on the site.

What Extra Information Does the Book Contain?:

A) Information about Dayboqrx City:

1) All four README files:

a) Dayboqrx City in general

b) How to read the scripts

c) List of all street names in Dayboqrx

d) List of subway stops on DCTA Subway System

2) Neighborhood Information

3) City Statistics and History

B) Character Analyses

   Includes all relevant information regarding appearance and background of all characters that have both a name and at least one speaking part in any of the 27 episodes contained in the book

C) Episode Information

1) Episode Statistics (Writer/Original Writing Date/Printed Length)

2) “Words from the Writer,” episode specific information from the writer himself

3) Scene Title Explanation, for those titles that are taken from pop culture, and may not be easily figured out as to where it is referencing

4) Previous Episode References

5) “Stat-Trackers,” keeping tabs on how many times certain events take place:

a) Katie says the word “great” in reference to herself

b) Benji enters the gang’s penthouse without their knowledge, or without knocking

E) Trivia Questions

See, this is a LOT of information that will be found in the book that will NOT be found on the website.  Even still, having a copy of all 27 episodes without having to print over 400 pages of information is a major plus, in order to be able to read the episodes when you are away from your computer.

When Will I Be Able to Buy This Book?:

We are hoping to have this book hit the shelves in February, however, we have not currently finished the book itself.  We are hoping to have the book completed, and submitted to a literary agency by the end of December, but nothing is final yet.  If you would like to let us know that you will be buying a copy of the book when available to help us out, e-mail us at companion@onourowntv.cjb.net.
