We received 515 submissions for the 2024 Moonshot Pilot Accelerator, and this week, we announced our 15 finalists! These scripts represent the top 3% of all submissions.


Our industry judges — showrunners, TV series creators, high-level producers, and working TV writers — read our semi-finalists' scripts earlier this month. Their ratings and expert notes helped us select our finalists. We also factored in our applicants' responses to the application questions, as well as their 2-minute pitch videos from the quarter-finalist round, when deciding which applicants would move to the finalist round.


We first met our finalists at our exclusive virtual networking event for semi-finalists last week. This week, our 15 finalists are participating in our interview round, in which we hear their five-minute pitch and get to know them in Zoom meetings.
