Television Scripts

Spec scripts (for a show already in existence) of half-hour or one hour length, comedies or dramas (The Office, CSI, etc.)
Pilots and MOW (Movie Of The Week). Pilots for comedies or dramas may be up to one hour in length.

Any non-working writer. Scripts must be correctly formatted for television.
Fresh, polished concepts, great writing and a good grasp of the medium. We will setup pitches, representation meetings and potential sales, both in the US and also for foreign markets. We are looking for the next generation of tv writers with solid script skills and saleable ideas.
Television is so broad and there are so many niches and subgenres that we don't want to constrain anyone by selecting particular types of show we'd like to see. Let your imagination run riot, but remember, commercial viability is all part of the writing mix.
