Great Job News! : A pilot episode screening (in LA)

What happens when you give a bunch of comedy writers a news show and then film all their behind-the-scenes disasters? Great Job News is a comedy pilot that follows a fictional news comedy show and its dysfunctional writing staff. The format splits between polished, satirical news desk segments and docustyle footage of the chaotic writers’ room behind the scenes.

Blending the topical humor of shows like Last Week Tonight with the workplace comedy of The Office, Great Job News explores how the sausage gets made in TV comedy while delivering sharp commentary on the week’s news. The pilot showcases both the final product viewers would see and the messy process of creating topical comedy under CNN-tight deadlines.

Starring: Nat Badillo, Alex Walker, Reem Edan, Willie Macc, Vance Tucker.
