When the president said he wanted "to find ways to communicate about a workable solution to the problem of unintended pregnancies," Dominic Iocco conceived "Bump." He and co-executive producer Christopher Riley want to see whether stories can succeed where four decades of rhetoric and politics have failed. They fashioned their experiment in a way that would be most appealing to the wired, reality-show generation.
Beginning Feb. 1, episodes will appear each week on Mondays and Thursdays, both on BumptheShow.com and on YouTube, and spectators are invited to comment. A pilot, which appeared on the eve of the 37th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, already had drawn 147 comments by Friday, ranging from criticism of the acting and the doctor's make-up to heartfelt accounts of personal experiences with abortion. WashingtonPost
