Hi everyone. I have another question about pitching a television show. I called and I was told that when I'm pitching my idea, the only thing I'm required to have is a bible of the show. Luckily I already have one though I don't know if it's exactly what it should be. Could anyone here provide a description of what a good writer's bible should consist of and how many pages it should have and so on? If there's a link to this information somewhere on the internet, I would love to have it. Have a great day.
NO! NOT A WRITER'S BIBLE! To hand in a writer's bible is certain death. It won't be read. You need a SERIES BIBLE, that's shorter and vaguer. It should be under 10 pages, and NEVER more than 20. Here and here are some example pitches. Just make sure you have 5 to ten episode synopses. I recommend you read this. It'll help.
