On the first page, I think you want to do an insert a shot of the TV instead of int. tv ... unless were inside of the tv.

a lot of confusing writing.

missing voice over tags or the protagonist was talking to himself?

wrong slug lines. Some int. that should be ext.

During the big scene with all the women talking you forgot to tell us who these women are. Who is Becky? Is she young, old, hot, ugly? Oh and Stacey is there ... you might want to mention that, seeing as how she is the titular character.

This is all the first 15 pages tho. Haven't read the rest but I have a feeling where it's going. The Graduate *cough*

Hi MGayles

Please note this line in the opening post "For production consideration - No comments required"

If I was you I would focus your energy on the writers who are actually looking for help

Ups, I almost missed the line about 'production consideration only'. It's very easy to overlook it!
