About the Book

The simple steps outlined in this book help clarify which television projects are most likely to be written as pilot scripts, produced, and ultimately given a series order. Presenting a new twist on the old notion of formulaic television, this book analyses the four-component formula that the best television has given us and elaborates upon it for the creation of great comedy and drama in half-hour or miniseries format.

About the Author :
Dee LaDuke is a consulting producer for the UPN series "Girlfriends." She has co-created and produced numerous pilots, and was supervising producer for "Designing Women." She lives in San Francisco.
