Comedy Pilot Scripts
AMERICA'S NEXT CULT LEADER
FORMAT: Half-Hour Competition | Spoof Reality TV | Streaming
GENRE: Parody Comedy
COMPS: SURVIVOR meets REAL HUSBANDS OF HOLLYWOOD
LOGLINE:
Which is the best cult? Six wannabe cult leaders must show off their physical prowess, mental fortitude, and… charm, to gain followers and win thirteen-million-dollars… worth of prizes.
WHY ME:
My sister and I bond over cult documentaries. For us, the psychology of escaping a cult is as interesting as the mindset of the people who start a pyramid scheme. And why wouldn't America make a making-of series (but ya know, fake, because that's less ethically questionable).
EVERYTHING HALLMARK TAUGHT ME WAS A LIE
FORMAT: Half-Hour for streaming
GENRE: Comedy
COMPS: DON'T TRUST THE B IN APT 23 meets a queer NEW GIRL
LOGLINE:
A self-absorbed pastry chef, tired of her mundane small-town, suddenly drops everything to pursue her dream of leading a fabulous big-city life including fancy nights out, finding her tribe, and exploring her bisexuality, but things do not go as planned.
WHY ME:
In college, I had this long-time friend who was obsessed with Rom-Coms. She wished her life was like the movies, in a constantly annoying way, and I thought it would be fun to put this type of person into a Reverse Hallmark style show.
YOUR EXTROVERTED SUPPORT HUMAN
FORMAT: One-Hour Procedural for streaming
GENRE: Comedy
COMPS: PSYCH meets 2 BROKE GIRLS
LOGLINE:
An aimless extrovert avoids finding her own passionby helping introverts tackle the tasks
that have held them back from flourishing themselves.
WHY ME:
One year at Austin Film Festival, my sister and I sat down for a break. She noticed I felt overwhelmed and said, "Don't worry, I've got you, I'm your Extroverted Support Human." We looked at each other and said, "Yes! That needs to be a thing!"
