30 Rock Spec

A spec script is an original episode of an existing show.  Writers do this to hone their craft in capturing others voices, in hopes that it will get them work someday.  I have a few spec scripts, but my favorite by far is my 30 Rock spec script.  The episode is the parody of the 1976 Paddy Chayefsky film Network (if you’ve never seen this movie you absolutely should.  Most famous for the quote, “I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take it anymore!”).  I basically combined one of my favorite movies with one of my favorite shows.  

I wrote it a few years ago, and because the show is no longer on the air, it’s not considered current.  So I thought I’d post it here.  If you have any feedback, let me know! Enjoy!
