Ok, so I have an idea for an episode. Is there anyway that I could tell someone incharge of Law and Order: SVU? If so, what would I have to do?

Welcome to the boards...

Katrose explained this a while ago and I forgot what she said, but I do know it wasn't easy to get the attention of TPTB...It has to be presented in a certain way and the script has to be written a certain way in order for them to even look at it. I also have a vague memmory that if they use your idea, you may not get any compensation or acknowledgement for it. Sorry I couldn't be more help. I will try to find the thread she talked about this in and in the meantime maybe Trixie can help.

I did find this... Script Writing

This thread is old and I miss some of those posters on that thread...
