Rallied the Rock Paper Cannon crew for the 2026 OK Film & Music Day at the Capitol.

This day is a great reminder of how much Oklahoma’s entertainment industry has grown since the passing of SB608 in 2021. When we invest in new industries as a state, they grow. Simple as that.

With the expansion of HB2110 last year, we can’t wait to see that growth continue as we incorporate broadcast and live audience sitcoms. #fundit ...

“A century-old entertainment economy is evaporating in Los Angeles with no signs of a turnaround on the horizon.”
— Wall Street Journal

Entertainment jobs are leaving America.

Not because demand is down — but because Hollywood is chasing incentives overseas.

Production is global.
Capital calls the shots.

That’s the stark reality for most of the industry.

Rock Paper Cannon flipped the script.

We are the studio.
We are the financiers.
We are the producers.

We decide where our stories get made.

As an independent television studio, local incentives like HB2110 are critical to our success. We want to keep our sitcoms rooted in Oklahoma — and as long as it’s funded, we will.

Because we want to shoot our sitcoms HERE AT HOME.

We are truly grateful our legislators passed this innovative piece of legislation last year.

Let’s make sure it gets funded this year. 😉

With more than 160 countries and 41 states aggressively fighting for this industry with ambitious incentive programs, it’s imperative that federal programs amplify what our states are already doing.

States can’t — and shouldn’t — carry that burden alone.

I’m part of the Coalition for American Producers, where we are working in DC to advance a federal stack (15–20% rebate) and the renewal of Section 181 (allowing investors to deduct production expenses in the same year they occur). These tools directly impact our ability to finance and keep production here in the U.S.

Entertainment is art.
But it’s also an asset class.

The key is building systems that make creativity sustainable.

Let’s go get it done. ...

NBC. CBS. FOX.

The multi-cam sitcom gold rush is on. And it’s being led by the Queens of Comedy.

Jane.
Katey.
Jamie.
Kari.
Andrea.
Tèa.
Pam.
Gail.
Christy.
Gloria.
Auntie Supreme.

Multi-Cams comin’ in HOT.
Let’s go. 🤩 ...

Every shift that’s disrupted the entertainment industry over the last three years has only strengthened the opportunity for Rock Paper Cannon.

Timing is everything.

Casting Call is Open. 🎬 ...

If you look at our history,
Oklahoma is filled with inspiring stories.

We are the Wild West.
We are the ultimate underdog story.

We don’t back down from ambitious dreams,
we build them.

Here at Rock Paper Cannon, we are up for the challenge! 💫

Who’s your favorite Oklahoma pioneer? ...

“When you have a friend and mentor like Chuck Lorre that believes in you, you just dream bigger.” — Rachel Cannon

Chuck was the first person to encourage Rachel to write her own show. Not sure he was thinking go to Oklahoma and build the whole ecosystem.

But we like to think he would approve.

Can’t wait to invite him to the taping of our first show. 📺💫 ...

Television studios create shows.
But they also create JOBS.
Hundreds of them.

Actors, writers, and directors are only the most visible layer of a production. Behind every sitcom is an entire workforce most audiences never see — carpenters, electricians, camera operators, editors, drivers, wardrobe stylists, accountants, makeup artists, production assistants, and more.

Hundreds of skilled professionals working together to bring each show to life.

And the economic ripple doesn’t stop at the studio gates.

Hotels fill with cast and crew — and fans who travel in for tapings.
Restaurants feed production teams after hours.
Gas stations fill up their cars.
Local vendors supply lumber, equipment, and production services.

One sitcom supports hundreds of workers and dozens of local businesses.

That’s the real power of a television studio rooted right here in Oklahoma.

At Rock Paper Cannon, we’re building something bigger than a slate of sitcoms.

We’re building a sustainable creative economy — a foundation strong enough for this industry to scale.

One sitcom at a time. ...

Middle America isn’t just underserved. It’s underestimated.

Over half of Americans live outside the coastal media centers that dominate production.

Ad-supported viewing makes up more than 74% of total TV consumption.

The scale tips in the middle.
Yet Middle America remains one of the most underrepresented markets in scripted programming.

So who is Middle America?

We are blue-collar workers and first responders.
Football on Fridays and church on Sundays.
Ranches and refineries.

We are the sports fan and the school teacher.
The football coach and the choir director.
Scientists and surgeons.

Accountants, attorneys, artists and architects.
Entrepreneurs and engineers.
CEOs and CPAs.
Soldiers and veterans.
Philanthropists and pilots.

We are small-business owners and shift workers.
Farmers and founders.

We are families — the 200+ million Americans living between the Hudson River and Los Angeles County.

Our stories are stronger than the stereotypes we’ve been handed.

Ad revenue drives studio programming.
Advertisers want Middle America.
We are the demand.

Rock Paper Cannon will tell those stories — with authenticity, at scale. ...

Grateful to the @okstatechamber for an incredible presentation on the economic status of our state.

We’ve got some work to do Oklahoma. Time to roll up those sleeves and make innovation, entrepreneurship and education a priority.

We are in - let’s go. ...
