John Truby

The sitcom is the single most popular form in the entertainment business. It's where the work is.
But don't underestimate this form. The 22 minute sitcom is exacting. Most writers think you just have to string together a lot of jokes. Wrong. I have seen hundreds of sitcom scripts with plenty of setups and payoffs, but they weren't good scripts.
Any successful sitcom writer-producer will tell you it's in the story. The trick is knowing the sitcom story structures that actually produce the laughs, writing comedy from character, and playing with the ongoing web of oppositions. And most writers don't know how these things are done.
The SITCOM SOFTWARE helps you map out these oppositions and structures for whatever show you want to write for or create. By applying the blueprints, you can see how to break down (or construct) any show, use both the A and A/B structures, combine comic types and oppositions, and include Emmy-winning elements that will make your script special. My 6-hour Sitcom Class is available onscreen whenever you need coaching, along with three Sitcom Examples to show you a variety of sitcom applications.
BONUS EXAMPLES:
Seinfeld, Home Improvement, Roseanne
