*I recommend a TV show for this. Half hour shows are fine, but a full hour show might give you more scenes to plot out and a whole movie might have too many things to plot out. I recommend against reality TV shows – you want a show that has a specific script that was written, since we are focusing on the writing in TV and movies. Do not use game shows or sports shows either. Dramas and sitcoms work best.
