Have you already written a screenplay? A TV script? A webseries? Are you ready to go deeper /better/smarter/odder with your next script? Do you know something about character and dialogue? Are you looking to develop a calling card for the industry, for entry into a writing room, an agency, the network waiting room or your scrapbook? Can you take criticism and make use of it? Can you offer feedback to other writers? Do you understand the difference between a movie and a TV show/ a sketch and a TV show/a play and a TV show? Would you like to write a show unlike any other?
