Today's Pitch Workshop submission comes from Wendy, who sends in a synopsis of her sitcom idea, Three-Two-One, to get some feedback from all you readers out there...

Think Sex in the City meets Weight Watchers; this sitcom cold opens each week with Emma, an extra curvy redhead, Mandy a philosophical dumb blonde, and Gwynne, a semi drag-queen, at a weight loss club; followed by an episode where the snarky humor shows the comedic side of their martini-hampered efforts to lose weight, manage their insecurities, and understand the men in their lives.

Wendy-- thanks so much for submitting this.

Readers-- critique away!

Coming up... responses to this and other Pitch Workshop entries... plus, Merik's question about pilots, Erica's question about spec scripts, Ronke's question about writing samples, and Mel's question about fight scenes. And-- some great interviews and book reviews...
