SAMPLE BEAT SHEET

Ran across a sample beat sheet for the defunct show Sliders, written under the defunct contest "Slide It Yourself." Oh, and here's another Sliders beat sheet.

All the SIY pages are gone from the Sci Fi Channel website but you can read them through your favorite search engine's nifty "cache," anyway, 'cause the webmaestro at SF didn't use "noarchive" commands.

Oh, and here's another beat sheet from Lee Goldberg; it's in Word format, so it will download, not open in your browser.

Anyway, them's pretty much what a beat sheet looks like.

Reading these beat sheets reminded me of many fond and not-so-fond memories I have of writing for daytime. But there we called "beat sheets" outlines or breakdowns. (Not to be confused with the breakdowns I occasionally had while having to write an hour-long script a week.)
