Description

This TV Writing course will teach you how to write a television script (teleplay if you want to be technical). Writing TV is a lot of fun, and this covers all bases for writing sitcoms and TV dramas. If you've ever had an idea for a TV show but don't know where to start, this course is meant to guide you and hopefully inspire you to write.

Jordan Imiola is a writer, producer, and showrunner with over 25 produced IMDb credits. He's had 2 of his own TV shows produced and has written specs of 30 Rock, Broad City, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Goldbergs, A.P. Bio, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, and Parks and Recreation.  During the pandemic lockdown in 2020, Jordan directed and wrote the feature zoom comedy, "Christmas Staycation" (now streaming on Tubi and on DVD everywhere). He's also the creator of the series, Monster Therapy and Romantically Hopeless, and has written and performed at Second City.  He's written about a dozen TV pilots, and this course will cover everything that I picked up along the Way.
