Veteran comedy TV writers take the audience’s suggestion of a show title, and, on the spot, develop a pilot for a brand new show.

In UCB’s Pilot Season, veteran comedy TV writers take the audience’s suggestion of a show title, and, on the spot, develop a pilot for a brand new show. It could be a sitcom, a prestige drama, or any number of different genres. Talented improvisers then take that pitch and bring it to life on stage.

All profits go to Lyndsey Frank’s fight against cancer.

Writers: Shaun Diston (Twisted Metal), Jeff Topolski (Brooklyn 99), Joan Ford (Tiny Toons Looniversity)

Musical scoring by Branson NeJame
