Writers are getting paid $1 million or more on so-called “naked” scripts — no IP, actor or director attached. It may sound like Shane Black's 1990s, but it's happening right now as Nicole LaPorte joins Sean McNulty and Elaine Low to reveal a fast change in the market (thanks, Dan Lin!), and the kinds of scripts selling (think Sherry Lansing). Plus: Lachlan Cartwright talks his massive scoops from TV news, including MSNBC's plan for more conservative voices, pay cuts for big on-air faces, and fears over ABC News' Trump settlement.

"In “Twin Towers,” Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer all deal with slightly mundane 9/11-related conundrums that, naturally, wind up intersecting with one another in the episode's finale. Jerry develops an aversion to the dust that's settled over New York City; Elaine discovers—much to her chagrin—that the guy she wanted to dump didn't end up dying in the attack; George is mistaken for a mysterious hero who saved a dozen people from the World Trade Center; and Kramer tries to get the government to replace his box cutters, which were stolen by his friend and used in the 9/11 hijacking." - Caroline Siede (from the AVClub article)This week on Cartwright! A Seinfeld Podcast, Adam and Corey review a Seinfeld spec script, written by Billy Domineau, dealing with the aftermath of 9/11.

Once again (in association with Laura's other podcast YA, We Read It!) Laura and her co-host Meggie sit down to celebrate the end of their third season by watching the web-series adaption of the Private Series by Kate Brian. You may be wondering how well a 1.5 hour web-series from the late aughts can capture the first four books of the fourteen book series, and as you may guess: not very well!!! Tune in as the two discuss how they would tackle adapting the series for screen and do it the justice it deserves.

In this new PMT Miniseries, Hobert and Mike sit down to tear apart a movie they didn't like so they can put it back together. They're not script doctors, they're script butchers. In this episode, the Rowdy Rip Boys(tm) take a look at Space Jam: A New Legacy, a movie seemingly written by ad execs who didn't really like the Looney Tunes for the accounting firm that manages Warner Bros.'s catalog. Get ready to hit the court to improve “Space Jam 2” with 100% more basketball, a dead family, and our personal guarantee that Bugs Bunny dies permanently. Come on and Jam!

Scryptkeeper Hobert sits down with his friend Will Stagg to talk about Tru Detective, Season 3, a series they conceived to be a third season of the HBO prestige drama True Detective, but not about cops. Hobert and Will review the old notes of their doomed series and talk about the seven episode season and read a part of the pilot. Get ready for pretentious episode titles, an episode that based on the CTA train map, and a destructive finale that never was. Bring out yer dead!!!
