Title: Successful Sitcom Writing : How To Write And Sell For TV's Hottest Format by Jurgen Wolff, L. P. Ferrante ISBN: 0-312-14426-1 Publisher: St. Martin's Press Pub. Date: 15 August, 1996 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $22.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.6 (5 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Not a bad book, but . . .
Comment: if you are serious about learning how to write sitcoms, the Evan Smith book "Writing Television Sitcoms" is much better. Smith's book gives better more detailed advice, plus it is more current.
Rating: 5
Summary: If you're ready to write, this book will help you focus
Comment: Boy, did I love this book... Mr. Wolff engagingly shares his experience as a veteran of the sit-com world with his audience of hopefuls, and makes it not only understandable but enjoyable. I was especially motivated by his step-by-step exercises designed to free the muse. And even though he was very direct about the chances of an unknown actually selling a show, he made me feel I can -- and will-- succeed. If he's this good on paper, I can only imagine how inspiring he would be in a classroom!
Rating: 4
Summary: Recommended. A focused and concise book on sitcom writing.
Comment: This book gathers the basic information on sitcom writing an a refreshingly straightforward manner. Because of the focus on successful network shows, the examples are necessarily lame. This book focuses on the structural requirements of teleplays as well as applicable business constraints.
This will not teach one how to be funny. No book can. But, as the book states: jokes are easy. Story is hard. This book will help you craft a better sitcom story in a professional manner.
