Hello everyone,
From the book Friends forever:
Kauffman and Crane had earned some interest from the Fox network for another pitch, for a show idea they themselves didn’t like as much; they even worried that the networks would pick the wrong show, and they’d be stuck. But when they came to NBC, their pitch for Insomnia Cafe was exactly the kind of twentysomething- ensemble show that Tarses and Littlefield said they’d been looking for. What really sold Littlefield was the well-rounded specificity of each of the six characters. “They so knew who their characters were,” he recalled.
I looked "stuck" up in the dictionary
https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionar...ican Dictionary-,stuck,were stuck in the mud.
but am still unsure as to what "stuck" implies in this particular context.
I think it's probably this meaning: 2 in an unpleasant situation or place that you cannot escape from
but what does it imply in this context?
Thank you.
