SCENES

"TV TYPE" Scenes for Two People

These are all original scenes, and yet, hopefully, they will all seem familiar.
After you watch enough TV, you begin to see the same set pieces on different shows: the spunky lead character who goes snooping where they shouldn't, the doctor devastated by losing a patient, the detective who decides it's time to get rough... These are samples of those kinds of scenes, written for non-existant shows, with characters who, in most cases, can be male or female, and of any ethnicity. Even where this is not the case, feel free to make the changes you need - these are tools, for class, practice, etc.
