My "Firefly meets Blade" script, HALFWAY TO HELL:
#Scriptsky #ThurdPageThirsday
For my #ThurdPageThirsday, I'm posting a page from my Unofficial #TedLasso spinoff,
"TRENT CRIMM ON SPORTS"
Two years after Ted went back to America, Trent finds his career in a nosedive. Hilarity ensues, of course... but on this page, Trent's confidence takes a punch in the face
#Scriptsky
To clear the query cobwebs, I'm going to get a jumpstart on Brett's #ThurdPageThirsday
I wrote a story about a high school golden boy who uses small town fame to hide his murderous nature.
It's not the third page.
Hell, it's not even a page.
This is from the pitch deck.
GABLE

Page 3 of the pilot TV script "Rumours of Glory". Julie, a TV producer, has just been told that another studio has caught fire while they are in mid-broadcast.
Ok! Here's page 3 from my pilot episode of "Rumours of Glory":
The producer, Julie, has just been informed mid-broadcast that another studio has caught fire.
#ThurdPageThirsday #Scriptsky
After last week’s -Guardrails- glow-up. The stakes have changed. Instead of a slow-burn contained thriller. We’re in the shit on page 1.
#ThurdPageThirsday #Scriptsky
I feel annoyingly duty-bound to participate in this buffoonery since I'm the one who made the idiotic graphic and continue to flog it like a soggy sad thing that one flogs for no reason.
Page 3 (and 4!) of the stalled as usual workplace comedy, BIG BOX.

Coverfly Top 11% (lol again). Another requested script, and the first one I wrote that wasn't a short.

The Forget-Me-Nauts.
Coverfly Top 17% (lol). One of the scripts requested by the manager.

On page three I'm establishing the threat of Cyronticulous Gentrax, the alcoholic world-eater that my Marx Brothers-esque trio must stop before he makes a lunch of Earth.

Continuing to wade into the awkwardness of having a crush, and then accidentally putting a curse on said crush thirty years later 😬

#thurdpagethirsday #scriptsky Only a couple of days from letting this YA Adventure pilot into the wild with my horde of readers... It is hitting all the right notes so far. The third page is a good place to start... Think National Treasure Meets Outer Banks.
Oh, and it’s Thirsday. Post a third page, or something with a third something, or something that doesn’t. No big whoop. Rules are for pedants.

A healthy dose of teen angst to launch my horror rom-com into the weirdness that lies ahead.
#ThurdPageThirsday #Screenwriting #Scriptsky
This from my Superhero Romcom...
HANDYMAN
After losing his powers, a former Superhero must adjust to being merely human. When aliens arrive and threaten to destroy the Earth, he must save humanity without the help of his once awesome abilities.
ITS TIME. Post something. Nobody’s scoring you. #ThurdPageThirsday #Screenwriting #Scriptsky
Here's page3 of the first script I ever wrote, FILM AT ELEVEN, dating back to 1988 (!). It's basically USED CARS meets BROADCAST NEWS. It was (surprise) very rough and ragged, but I still laugh to read it even today. (Originally written in MacWrite, using custom tabs.)
#ThurdPageThirsday #Scriptsky
Darn! I attached the wrong page. Forgot I don't have a cover page. This is Page 3 of my 1916-set script. #ThurdPageThirsday #Scriptsky #writerbrain
Guess I'll play along with this one, too. Again, from my script set in 1916. #ThurdPageThirsday #scriptsky #writing
