Half our comedies are what I write and pitch, typically. So I'm probably best suited to hear those projects as I've been put through development bootcamp by producers and network execs in my own career. I'd love to pass along what I've had to learn the hard way to newer writers.
That being said, I love to read action projects, and thrillers too. When I worked at Universal TV we developed several high profile dramas with well known showrunners for NBC, Showtime, and AMC.
Reality or documentaries. I don't have any career experience there, and probably couldn't be of service to any potential clients.
Brendan Casey began his career as a development executive at Dark Toy Entertainment, a production company with a 4 year, exclusive deal at Universal Television. Since then, he's transitioned into writing and staffed on the comedy HIT THE ROAD starring Jason Alexander. He's also set up multiple pilots with cable and streaming outlets, and developed shows with producers Scott Auckerman and Andy Samberg. His children's humor book, Until You Came Along, was named the funniest book on parenting by BuzzFeed. He is currently adapting the book PEOPLE WHO DESERVE IT with Executive Producer Aseem Batra attached to showrun.

Cancellation Policy: You may cancel your registration for a refund or Roadmap gift card if you have not yet submitted your material for review. However, once your material has been received by Roadmap, your registration cannot be canceled. Having revised material or a desire to retroactively apply a discount or gift card code are not grounds for cancellation, refunds, or gift card credit. Once your material has been submitted, the only acceptable grounds for cancellation and a refund or gift card credit is an unforeseen, ongoing emergency on the part of either the writer or the exec resulting in more than 6 weeks without any scheduling update from the exec via direct contact or Roadmap, or a sudden change in the exec's ongoing availability. In the instance of an irreconcilable scheduling issue, the writer may still receive a written feedback report from the exec. In this case, the writer is not entitled to a refund or gift card credit as the exec has read the submitted material and provided written feedback in lieu of the call.
