A structural diagnosis of your TV pilot's engine. Across two sessions, one upstream answer: what's keeping your script from sustaining a series.
I'll be in touch within 48 hours.
Nick Jobe is a development consultant. He’s developed projects at Netflix and Apple, and his clients have sold pilots to Amazon and Netflix and premiered work at Tribeca and Sundance. He tells you exactly why the experience you want the reader to have is not the experience they’re having—and how to fix it.
“Nick marches to the beat of a very different drummer. From strategic conversations to scene work, there are few like him in the market.”
In two years, she went from a single short film in a festival to a second-round Sundance Writers Lab finalist, to pitching her TV and feature projects to Freckle Films (George & Tammy), Catchlight Studios (Heretic), and Bee-Hive Productions (Sacramento). Her current project — a one-woman play, The Only Man Who Won't F*ck Me — premieres at Edinburgh Fringe 2026.
“Nick is my secret weapon. There are few direct routes to creating a project that gets you interest from the major TV players in Hollywood — working with Nick is just about the closest thing.”
From no screenwriting credits to an original pilot pitched to Apple TV and taken out by CAA to Hyperobject Industries.
“This is already worth its weight in gold. From what I was about to do, to what I'm going to do.”
I developed the audit because I've seen far too many pilots make the same exact mistakes. The basic building blocks of story — conflict, stakes, questions — are all intertwined with the story engine, an oft-misrepresented tool in writing circles.
The audit identifies the structural reasons a reader bumps on your work, and saves you months — sometimes years — of aimless rewrites. Market ready and undeniable get thrown around a lot. What I'm aiming for with writers is building a script with integrity that has sustainability.
If you want to move fast, let’s talk. If you want to keep solving it on your own, I’ll see you down the line.
