For my project I am producing a regular tv show for RVTV and the internet. There is a host, and talking and stuff like interviews and hanging out. We will hopefully have some live musicians in the studio, as well as a live audience. The atmosphere will be really laid back, with a few guests on at a time. Every show will have a theme that will propel the content. The show will have breaks during the interviews where there will be pre-produced content like pre filmed interviews with random students, informational pieces, animations, skits and shorts, etc. There will also be lots of room for submitted content, which will act as kind of a student showcase.
There are many aspects of this production and there will be a lot of people involved in order for it to go smoothly. The Siskiyou is possibly interested in doing a news report for every show as well. There is definitely accommodations for acting students to get involved in sketch comedy, although that would require a significant amount of work on top of what already needs to be done so I am only offering the video end of those if a group wants to come in and do something on their own. I have had a group of non-acting students say that they have the ideas and the go-getter attitudes to produce sketches if I could film and edit them. I have not had any contact with theater students however.

Here are some other shows that have creative freedoms and can pretty much do whatever they want.
Appreciate the 'inspirational' flowchart, Jake, and nice job on the project pitch. Do you have permission to shoot at the bars yet? (When you do, I'll show up at one and drink to that!) And the idea to partner with different groups is a great way to make your idea more sustainable with regard to all the work involved. I especially think it would be good for your future career portfolio to set up an agreement with the Siskiyou, since so many papers are learning that they must have streaming content on their websites to compete. You already have a rough production schedule, so next step will be adding dates to your field shoots/interviews and choosing a Monday before the end of the month for a preliminary critique in class.
