SCREWS
Comedy Series
(13 x 30)
In Development
Imagine the biggest, strongest, most level-headed tough-asses you could find. They eat rocks for breakfast. They use sides of beef as punching bags. They have the patience of a Buddha. They are ideal prison guards.
This series is not about them.
Instead. SCREWS is about four unlikely, brand new prison guards, the lousiest possible recruits really, and how they become friends while trying to keep order in hell- as the dysfunctional baby-sitters of the damned.
Inspired by the real-life experiences of a corrections officer turned stand-up comedian, SCREWS is a workplace comedy about the horrible yet hilarious daily grind of the folks who keep a maximum security prison running. It's THE OFFICE, in lockdown.
