Screenwriting : TV Comedy contest -- who submitted? by Pat Alexander

I have a script called Maid Man about an ex-Special forces officer who was kidnapped by aliens as a child and ends up as a house cleaner with an italian cleaning service who cleans homes form the mob. And they make fun of him, saying he´s a Maid Man Pat Alexander

Mark Deuce Now that's funny!

I submitted FIXINS.

1/2 hr

Workplace Dramedy

R-Rated

An obnoxious, hard-partying, food truck owner struggles to reunite with his uptight son. Their opposing views impede efforts to save a diverse group of food truckers facing eviction.

Lee Sr., owner of "6 Guys Burger Truck", is abruptly woken from a drunken slumber on the floor of his food truck by his straight-laced son. Lee Jr., a recent graduate with a degree in nursing, hopes to spend the summer reconnecting with his dad.

Father and Son find a way to ease a bit of the tension, but their reunion is quickly tested. Mr. Conrad informs the group of food truckers of his plan to sell the land they call home. Lee Sr. turns to alcohol to drown his sorrows. Lee Jr. wonders if his dad is a lost cause.

Lee Sr. reckons his best shot at repairing his familial relationships is by saving the food truck park. He'll need help from his son and the raucous bunch of truckers to do so. As they work through their beefs and other conflicts arise, season 1 has all the ingredients of a recipe for disaster.

Adam Brandt i want all the fixins!

Ha! Sounds juicy! Sizzling?

I wrote a TV pilot script establishing Kool-Aid Man as a sort of modern day hero, he's cool, magical, but he mostly hangs out and spreads joy with his classic beverage. His natural enemies are the Thirsties that appear to him when people are on the verge of dehydration. Like in Batman, there is also room for a cast of evil villans to be developed. In this story, a death-cult leader is his nemesis, and he must defeat him by neutralizing his growing congregation. Lenora, the girl always in blue, is his love interest. She throws bad parties in hope that he will crash it, but gets drawn into the power structure of the cult, and needs to be rescued, not only from danger, but also her codependency. Like the Simpsons in Springfield, Kool-Aid Man is part of a community of endless wild characters doing their thing. I wrote several drafts, and I think I came up with a funny spoof that entertains on many levels for a TV audience. Fingers crossed.

I'm crazy about women's soccer (next month is the Olympics!!!) If you liked Ted Lasso...then you might enjoy Technically Soccer TV Pilot: Release the Droids!

Comedy • Television (One-hour) • 43 pages

A wealthy software mogul buys a financially challenged women’s soccer team and coaches it with a cute AI droid in her quest to be accepted - especially by her high school rival, who is now the team captain. If you think Ted Lasso had problems - at least he was human.

Pitch Deck at

https://www.canva.com/design/DAF_27b2rlM/-waxqNaL2MyvnPerGBNGpg/view?utm...

I co-wrote a tv pilot about three “lady” cops who were recently hired by an alcoholic mayor in a tiny town called Boudica . The show follows them as they navigate the challenges of their professional/personal lives, and get caught up in the absurdities of their small town community.

Mark Deuce truly the wackiest, most delightful combination of beloved genres and stories, I love it! Can't even imagine what it feels like to be bullied by aliens hahaha

@Adam Brandt a food truck as a setting is brilliant, so current and chaotically contained. And these characters sound so developed. Put me in line for the full meal pls!!

Not sure why it's not letting me tag names, but hopefully y'all will see my responses at some point!

@sandi jerome -- Ted Lasso but with girls and AI? Say less. Rooting for this team. And your pitch deck goes crazy!! What a valuable resource and stunning display of your vision and talent.

@claire crowley -- As someone who grew up in a small town, I can attest to the absurdities. Cops hired by an alcoholic mayor is a genius concept. Writes itself. Schitt's Creek vibes?

Sometimes you have to refresh the page for the name tagging to work, Ellis Stump.

Oh, and I submitted a pilot about teenage lesbian Amish meth dealers, baking the drug into whoopie pies at Shady Maple Smorgasbord.

It's my personal story! Lore drop. Here's the logline:

TAART follows closeted-queer, 16-year-old, Amish anti-hero, Willa Stoltzfus, on her rite-of-passage Rumspringa. Crashing in a communal trailer in rural Lancaster, she discovers the underground meth trade, feelings for her childhood bestie, and gender identity. BYOBonnet!

To translate, "Taart" is PA Dutch for "pie," because we Amish girlies bring the moistest pies to the function, along with endless innuendos. Good luck, fellow "schnickelfritzes" (artistic rebels) xo

Ah thank you Maurice Vaughan , problem solved!! As you can tell by my synopsis, technology is not my first language lol

Thank you Ellis Stump and so glad you liked Maid Man.

You're welcome, Ellis Stump.

Thank you Maurice Vaughan - I refreshed, typed the @ and then waited a few seconds and it worked!

You're welcome, Sandi Jerome.

Here's the logline for my dramedy: Good Christian Boy is an uncensored, irreverent dramedy that chronicles the existential crises and coming-of-age challenges of Ezra, an evangelical Christian teenager during the early 2000s.

And yes, it's based on my life. Also, here is a picture of me in costume as a "Lust" demon for a human video cautioning teens from the ways of the world. In case you don't know, a human video is basically shitty dramatic dancing to songs:

Congratulations everyone for getting your project submitted!! Here's a bit about mine. Our Lady of Hollywood and Vine-"The Wow Factor" a Comedy Pilot

My single camera comedy was un-immaculately conceived on stage doing stand-up comedy as Sister Mary Mallarkey. Logline : A frustrated Irish feminist nun brings her stand-up comedy act to California to take on Hollywood and the Catholic Church. Can she prod the patriarchy into the twenty-first century AND keep her day job?

While OLHV has its roots in religion, Hollywood AND The Catholic Church, the show really tries to find the funny by diving into questions all mortals find themselves wrestling with. Why do any of us stay in a job, relationship, city or institution that we fantasize leaving if we had the nerve? It’s a familiar hell. Like eating comfort food that's not even comforting anymore but we know what we’re going to get. Why do we want to be a part of something that doesn't approve of us while we don't approve of the institution that doesn't approve of us? Okay, getting too philosophical here. The show's about laughs! It could be the comedy love child of “The Marvelous Mrs Maisel and Father Ted” or the "What If" the “Flying Nun” landed in “Parks and Rec”? Or “The Office” went all “Sister Act”? I've self produced some one offs and teasers for the show and look forward to getting it out of my Writers Duet and streaming soon!

All the best for your projects! Jacqi Bowe

I did Pat Alexander

I submitted a comedic extended series project about a man who gets bitten hard by the golf bug and becomes hopelessly addicted...so much so that he comes to believe he's channeling the spirit of the great golf legend Ben Hogan. Our hero becomes more and more deceitful and sneaky until he finally abandons his wife and family and runs off to South Carolina to find the perfect swing leaving his wife to pick up the pieces as she tries to discover what happened to the man she married. In her search for her husband she gets bitten by the bug herself. The underlying theme, " My husband wouldn't have sex with me now unless I painted myself green and stuck a flag between my legs!"

Is anyone else getting nervous??? The 29th is getting closer.

I submitted this same script to another contest. I didn't make it to the finals, but the script scored fairly well, feedback-wise. Gotta count personal wins, too!

Anyway, best of luck, everyone!

When will the announcement go live?

Jessica Levine if you’re on Coverfly, the announcement should be there now.

Jessica Levine announcements always go up at 4 PM PST on Fridays

Thank you guys for letting me know!

Also, is there a reason the list on Coverfly doesn't have all the scripts/names? It's a shorter selection than what I'm seeing on Stage 32 proper.

Congratulations to everyone!! My partner and I submitted CUDDLE BUDDIES. We created the half-hour comedy series, CUDDLE BUDDIES, to explore a very real phenomenon... the business of cuddling with strangers.

In a fast-paced demanding world where most people connect digitally and genuine emotional interaction is rare, people are desperately looking for human contact. CUDDLE BUDDIES provide the solution. Cuddling is a highly undervalued service that offers individuals actual connection with another person... human touch. Cuddlers are called upon to be life coaches, therapists and overall anxiety busters... all for an hour, a nap, or an overnight session.

Jessica Levine The scripts showing up on Coverfly are only the ones submitted to the contest through Coverfly. When the contest ends, writers are able to "claim" your placement through Coverfly and add your accolades to your profile there as well.

I have submitted to so many places, I don't remeber if I submitted to this one!! I'll have to go back through my emails and on Coverfly.
