Hello Hivemind,

I am curious about what currently in broadcast run SF/F television shows you are watching, and which one you think are good. I would like your recommendations, as I plan to watch a few of these shows, request shooting scripts from the production companies, and then write some spec scripts. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure Futurama doesn't use outside writers, but that's the other one I pay attention to.

It wouldn't kill me to write a Futurama script, though. With television, you're writing spec scripts to prove you can write more than to sell that particular script. A well-written Futurama spec script could get you work on another show.
