The Other Network Comedy Contest deadline is Dec. 15, 2009 and we're happy to announce a special guest judge this year: Erin Keating.

Erin is a development consultant at IFC TV focused on original series development and production. Before that she was director of programming and development at Magna Global Entertainment, produced for ComedyNet, was a development consultant to BBC America, worked at NBC and Comedy Central.

The contest deadline is Dec. 15, 2009 and this year, the contest is accepting any comedy format: TV spec scripts, original TV pilots, feature screenplays, plays, personal essays, sketch packets, shorts, produced pilots, even standup - with potential winners in every category. And what do winners win?

Other contests give you cash or software. The Other Network Comedy Contest is the only contest that actually gets your foot in the Hollywood door: we put winners work into the hands of top TV showrunners to put you on their radar - and get their feedback on your work.

Previous winners have had their work reviewed by Bob Odenkirk, Alan Zweibel, Bill Oakley & Josh Weinstein, Cindy Chupack and other top comedy professionals, plus managers at Brillstein-Grey, agents at Metropolitan, execs at Starz and Comedy Central. Get details and enter now.
