Network Sneak Peak #1

In case you haven't heard, I got a new show premiering on the TV Ratings Guide in four days called Network. It's a anthology workplace comedy that takes place at a TV network. This debut season is loosely based on NBC's Do No Harm. Here's a sneak peak of an upcoming episode.

COLD OPEN
FADE IN:
INT. BUSINESS HALLWAY - FIVE MINUTES AFTER THE MEETING

We last left the gang in a meeting. In this episode, the meeting has concluded. In this scene, we see Leah and Kasey as they
walk towards their respective offices. They decide to debate about the decisions to cancel the four shows listed in Ash’s notice --
Mean Girls, Georgia, Star Undercover, and Guilty Pleasure.

Leah: Well Kasey, I didn’t know Georgia was going to get canned just like that.
Kasey (shrugs): Beats me. Georgia was technically on its final season. The final episode was written as a series finale. With
the ratings as low as they are, I don’t blame the production staff behind the show. To be honest, I kinda wish the show was
given a final season beforehand.
Leah: You’re right about that. Also, in the case of Mean Girls, the show was not doing too poorly. However, the show was
just too expensive to continue.
Kasey: I would say so. Elaborate.
Leah: I say with these costs, the show would either have to move to Canada or cut two actors in order to conquer the high
production costs.
Kasey: You are right. Cancelation for this show makes more sense on a financial perspective.
Leah: Now we are thinking on the same page.

END OF COLD OPEN
Well folks, I hope you get to see it and enjoy it as much as I enjoy writing this episode. You may have seen the parody Dynasty style catfight scene where I replaced Leah, Kasey, and Holly with the characters from Dynasty.
