But I think a good pilot might obviously have exposition (introduction of characters, conflict, you know about that being in high school), but that's just it. Exposition HAS to include an introduction of the conflict. It's in the very nature of exposition.

So I'm thinking the pilot could end on a sorta-cliffhanger, sorta like how the pilot of Doctor Who ended: Rose running into the TARDIS to go off on her first adventure with the Doctor. It would hook people and still rise well.

Yeah. I was thinking the first episode would end with us opening a letter. We sent a letter to the City Hall asking if we could do some sort of fundraiser that involved the whole city to fund the school, and once the letter's open, we gasp and cry, giving the impression it's a no. But it's a yes. So how's that?
