Decisions, decisions...

Alright, so I am making progress, but I am certainly struggling with a couple of things as I write these first few episodes.  Here are my top two:

What rating do I aim for? - Yeah, I know web content isn't exactly regulated, but I want to have some sort of target that I keep my writing in.  It really boils down to PG-13, R, or NC17.  Based on just my sense of humor, the dialog ends up in the upper end of that rating list, but do I dial it back, just a little, to make it more palatable for the masses?  If you forced me to make a call right now, I would tend towards R.  Maybe I should go clean up a few "fucks" in my scripts...  :)

Is it all or nothing with episode 1.1? - I'm quite worried that if I can't hook people with the premier episode, that all is lost.  On the other hand, if I keep tweaking and re-writing just the first episode, I will never get this thing off the ground.  And so the balancing act continues, eh?  Maybe I give myself one more week before I put episode 1.1 in front of a few folks and get some feedback.

Thoughts?
