0| The Launch Pad Pilot Competition Presents… | |
| Title: | SHRINK PROOF |
| Logline: | Newly appointed chief psychiatric resident of St. Christina’s Hospital struggles to make her mark as she battles to earn the respect of her privileged and self-obsessed colleagues, keep her marriage together, and try to keep her life from falling back to the impoverished world she left behind. |
| Pitch: | GREY’S ANATOMY meets IN TREATMENT |
| Writer: | Stephen Potts |
| Genre: | Drama | Medical |
| Why to Read: | With a powerhouse female lead, an intriguing supporting cast, and no shortage of addictively soapy twists to play with, this is the type of medical drama that not only stands out, but becomes a force to be reckoned with on whichever night it airs. Never shying away from politicized issues of mental health, gender, or race, this story is not only timely, but is delivered in such an authentic, honest and clever way that audiences will come for the drama, but stay for the brilliantly crafted moments that remind us that a bigger theme is at play. With more potential drama than a showrunner will know what to do with, this pilot sets up all of the relationships needed to sustain a series for decades. |
