See the tape in that diagram up there? It's a mini-DV. Put your show on one and mail it to us. Write the show's title and your email address on it. We are NYC-based, but you can live anywhere.

  • Note that it is a Mini-DV -- not a full-sized DV or DVD.
  • Make sure your MiniDV tape is recorded in "SP" mode (not LP).
  • Note that it's got a title on it and an email address.
  • DON'T USE DVCAM MODE -- we can't import it.
  • The show can be a maximum of five minutes, including credits and everything.
  • The mini-DV tape should be in our P.O. box on the day of the deadline, not just postmarked by the deadline. We pick up the tapes that day.
  • The show should be presented as a tv show.
  • The show should be good.

That's it! Send it here:

What happens then?

  • The creators of the prime time shows watch all the mini-DVs.
  • They pick the best five or so to be screened.
  • At the screening, a live audience watches the new pilots and new episodes of the prime time shows.
  • The audience votes. Top 5 shows become the new prime time lineup. There is no online voting. The live audience decides.
