Chris Sheridan (writer) edit

  • ... that screenwriter Chris Sheridan has also worked as a bartender and a substitute teacher?
  • ... that writer Chris Sheridan, who has received three Emmy Award nominations for his work on Family Guy, initially feared that writing for it would end his career?

5x expanded by Taylor Trescott (talk). Self nominated at 17:54, 30 September 2013 (UTC).

  • Pretty much everything checks out. It's not quite long enough (Previous length (921) * 5 = 4,605. New length = 4,386) but I'm prepared to overlook that given that much of the earlier version was essentially a list of Family Guy episode titles. However, the hook isn't quite as interesting as perhaps it could be. Might I ask for an alternative hook? You might want to include the Emmy nominations, or the fact that he initially didn't want to work on an animated series. violet/riga [talk] 20:01, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
  • Ah, how did I miss that? One second, I'm pretty sure there's some other stuff I've forgotten to add here. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 20:10, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
  • Have expanded it to 4985 characters (added some more info about the failed pilot and the Family Guy episodes he wrote). Alternative hook has also been added. Is it good? Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 20:32, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
