Script-of-the-Week: Frasier “An Affair to Forget”

by Chuck Ranberg & Anne Flett-Giordano (47 pages)

Awards: Won an Emmy in 1995 for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Writing for a Comedy Series

Points of Interest:

• Pacing: Quick pacing, slows down with German/Spanish dialogue.

• Screen Visibility: Minimal.

• Formatting: Standard.

• Act Structure: 2 Act Structure

Recommendation: For Screenwriters who want an example of introducing foreign language jokes into the mix. There is also a moment where Ad Libbing by Frasier and Niles is indicated. Rather unusual for a script.
