This is full season blueprint.
Now here’s the real talk.
One-hour episode means around 45–60 scenes per episode. That’s 50–60 pages per episode in screenplay format. That’s almost 600 pages total.
We can absolutely build it episode by episode in full professional screenplay format with scene headings, dialogues, transitions.
But we’ll do it strategically. One episode fully detailed at a time.
Because writing 10 hours of drama in one shot? That’s not art. That’s chaos.
