They say they are interested in compelling and universal stories with unconventional characters and comedy at their heart, that they love ideas across all genres, and that they encourage you to be bold.
From their own submission guidance.
How to approach
There are two doors here and they are not the same size. For a project, they ask that everyone comes via an agent and shares a pitch or a treatment along with the script where possible. Unsolicited scripts are ruled out, on the grounds of a small team and limited capacity rather than principle.
The second route is the interesting one and it needs no agent. If you are a writer-performer, they invite you to send links to your social media and any online material that best represents your comedy, and say they are always looking to add new talent to their database. That is a genuine opening for people who make their own work, and it asks for something you may already have. Send the links, not a script.
The PreList verdict
Who this is for: comedy writers with an agent, and separately, writer-performers with work online and no representation at all. The second group is the reason this entry is worth reading closely, because almost nothing else in this directory offers them a route.
Who should skip it: writers with a script, no agent and nothing performed or posted. The script route is agented and they say so plainly.
Their stated appetite is unusually specific for a production company and worth using: compelling and universal stories with unconventional characters and comedy at the heart, across any genre, and an explicit encouragement to be bold. That is a brief, and briefs are rare on this side of the industry.
