I just joined/found out about Stage 32, and it seems like a very cool place. I'm happy to be here! I'm a fledgling TV sitcom writer, so any advice anybody wants to give is appreciated! My MAJOR problem is in getting my spec pilot script read. It's VERY "edgy," and I did have an award-winning sitcom writer read it, and he gave me two referrals to showrunners. Unfortunately, neither one has gotten back to me, so I have to move on. So, if anybody has any suggestions, I'm all ears (okay, eyes is probably more appropriate). Thanks in advance, Parker

Nice to meet you Parker - welcome!
Keep pitching it. Vince Gilligan was turned down by every major TV studio for Breaking Bad - until finally AMC took a chance. If you haven't watched "The Writers Room" episodes you should. Lots of good info there. (oh and keep writing new stuff too)
