Sometimes actors want to have a say in the words they're given; sometimes they want to stretch their artistic muscles; sometimes they look at the scripts they have to do and think, "I could do better than this!" When this happens, and the producers are on their side (or the network is), you have something written by a cast member. Much less prevalent than Directed by Cast Member, particularly in these days of arc-driven television. Writing is less glamorous than directing, for one thing, and it's harder to develop a story from scratch than to bring someone else's to the screen. Key to both of these tropes is that the actor gets into writing or directing through the show they're on, without having a previous background in it (let alone being the series creator). As the examples show, sometimes non-dramatic Expanded Universe works can be written or co-written by actors, for name-recognition value. Often these works focus on the character the actor plays in the show. For the opposite direction of crossover, see Descended Creator and Creator Cameo. For shows where the cast and the writing staff heavily overlap, see Cast Full of Writers. |

Three of CSI: NY cast members tried their hands at writing episodes. Gary Sinise worked on the story line for "Live or Let Die" about a stolen donor liver, and wrote the screenplay for "Turbulence" in which a man posing as an Air Marshall is killed during a flight that Mac is on. Melina Kanakaredes wrote "Grounds for Deception" where Stella goes to Greece chasing a suspect - an ep which unfortunately drew mixed reviews from fans. Finally, Carmine Giovinazzo wrote "Sanguine Love," about the murder of a member of a vampire-like cult. This one was much better received by viewers. | |

The Simpsons: Dan Castellaneta has written several episodes with his wife Deb Lacusta: "Days of Wine and D'oh'ses", "Gump Roast", "The Ziff Who Came to Dinner", "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bangalore", "The Fight Before Christmas", "A Midsummer's Nice Dream", "The Ten-Per-Cent Solution", "Havana Wild Weekend", and "My Way or the Highway to Heaven". Castellaneta also co-wrote at least one sketch of The Tracey Ullman Show. Despite guest star Ricky Gervais getting credit for writing the season 17 episode, Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife, he admits that he didn't really write much of it. He said that he only wrote the plot (which was his wife's idea), a couple of jokes and the song. Guest star Seth Rogen co-wrote the episode "Homer the Whopper". Harry Shearer, who voices Ned Flanders, Mr. Burns, Smithers, Principal Skinner, etc. wrote the season 28 episode "Trust but Clarify". Nancy Cartwright, voice actress of Bart, Ralph, Nelson, etc. wrote the season 30 episode "Girl's in the Band". |

Doctor Who Expanded Universe: Ian Marter, who played Dr. Harry Sullivan, subsequently wrote nine of the Doctor Who Novelisations, two of which ("The Ark in Space" and "The Sontaran Experiment") he had appeared in as Harry. Marter also wrote an entirely original novel featuring Harry as the protagonist, Harry Sullivan's War. Marter and Tom Baker co-wrote a speculative script for a Doctor Who movie during their time together on the show, called Doctor Who Meets Scratchman, which eventually ended up as a novel called simply Scratchman — as Marter had died in the meantime the novelisation was a collaboration between Baker and Whoniverse writer James Goss. Sophie Aldred, who played Ace, wrote the New Series Adventures novel At Childhood's End, in which Ace is reunited with the Thirteenth Doctor (preceding their onscreen reunion in "The Power of the Doctor"). Alex Kingston, who played River Song, collaborated with Whoniverse writer Jacqueline Rayner on the River novel The Ruby's Curse. John Barrowman, alongside his sister Carole, wrote the Torchwood novel "The Exodus Code", featuring his character Captain Jack Harkness. |

While working for Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling in 1983, Sgt. Slaughter and Don Kernodle came up with the whole "The Final Conflict" angle for their feud with Ricky Steamboat and Jay Youngblood after stopping at a convenience store in Savannah, GA and buying a composition book. They had the whole feud written out by the time they got to Myrtle Beach, SC. | |

Sesame Street Sonia Manzano has played Maria since 1971 and has written for the show since 1981. While he was on the show, Joey Mazzarino (Murray Monster, the horns-down half of the Two-Headed Monster, and Stinky the Stinkweed, among others) wrote a number of episodes and skits. His first sketches were the Colambo sketches, in which he played the titular character, and the success of those bits allowed him to join the writing staff full-time in addition to puppeteering. By the end of his tenure, he was the show's head writer. While not a specific sketch, Carroll Spinney (Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch) gave the idea to have real kids appear in unscripted bits with the Muppets. He also wrote the plot outline for the special Big Bird in China. |

Done quite a bit on The X-Files, especially in later seasons. David Duchovny wrote (and directed) two episodes: "The Unnatural" and "Hollywood AD" while co-developing storylines for seven others. Gillian Anderson wrote (and directed) season seven's "all things." William B Davis (who plays The Smoking Man) wrote "En Ami." | |

Mike Kiss also appears in Fangbone! as the voice of Twinkle-stick and wrote the episode "The Ball of Clobbering". On the subject of Fangbone!, the title character's voice actor, Taylor Abrahamse, himself a singer-songwriter, wrote the lyrics to the series theme tune. Ironically, Fangbone is established in-universe to be a poor singer. | |

Has happened a few times in the Star Trek franchise: Andrew Robinson, who played Elim Garak in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, wrote a spin-off novel, A Stitch in Time, centering on the character. J G Hertzler, who played several roles in the franchise, most notably the Klingon military officer and politician Martok and the outlaw Founder Laas in Deep Space 9, co-wrote two novels centering on Martok. William Shatner, who played Captain Kirk, co-wrote a series of novels known as the "Shatnerverse", which take place in an Alternate Timeline in which Kirk is resurrected after his main-canon death in Star Trek: Generations. Armin Shimerman, who played Quark in Deep Space Nine, co-wrote The 34th Rule with David R. George III. In addition to starring Quark, it cameos a number of other Ferengi characters that Shimmerman had earlier played in different episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, with Quark insisting they only look alike to hew-mons. John de Lancie, who played Q, co-wrote I, Q with Peter David. |

Doctor in the House: The entire second series of Doctor in the House was co-written by Graeme Garden and Bill Oddie; Garden appeared in the episode "Doctor on the Box" as the presenter of the programme that has been filmed at St Swithin's - which turns out to be a viciously critical examination of the students' drunken antics at the taxpayers' expense. Before leaving the series, George Layton wrote a number of episodes of Doctor at Large and Doctor in Charge under the pseudonym Oliver Fry. His contributions to Doctor at Sea, Doctor on the Go, and Doctor at the Top were under his own name. Jonathan Lynn wrote episodes of each series from Doctor at Large to Doctor on the Go, including the Doctor in Charge finale "Should Auld Acquaintance Be Forgot?" in which he reprised his role as Danny Hooley from Doctor in the House. |

An unusual example exists in the case of Doctor Who Meets Scratchman, which was written by co-stars Tom Baker and Ian Marter but was ultimately never picked up for production. Had it actually been produced and released, it would've been an eclectic, Terry Gilliam-esque game of cat-and-mouse through time and space between the Doctor & company and Satan (named "Scratchman" for whatever reason) that would've culminated in a final battle on a giant pinball table. The script was finally realized as a novel by Baker (alongside James Goss — Marter having sadly passed away in the '90s) in 2019. | |

In 1955, The Archers had an episode where Grace Archer, the wife of Phil, was killed off. (It may or may not have been a coincidence that the episode went out on BBC radio the very night commercial television began.) The script had Grace's fate be conveyed in the final line of dialogue thus: "She... she died in my arms... on the way to hospital," but Norman Painting, who played Phil, suggested the line go "In my arms... on the way to hospital... she's dead!" Suffice to say that not only was this one of the most talked-about episodes of the soap, but Painting went on to write many, many episodes (and the book Forever Ambridge - 25 Years of The Archers), as well as act in them. | |

Arrowverse: John Barrowman, who played the initial Big Bad and later Heel–Face Revolving Door character Malcolm Merlyn in Arrow, wrote Dark Archer, a spin-off comic starring Malcolm, with his sister Carole Barrowman. Camrus Johnson, who plays Luke Fox in Batwoman, wrote a Batwing story for Batman: Urban Legends #4. The issue was released the same day that the Batwoman episode where he dons the Batwing suit was broadcast. The backmatter of the Stargirl Spring Break Special includes a series of excuses Courtney gave when skipping class to do superhero stuff, written by Brec Bassinger, who plays the title character in Stargirl (2020). Nicole Maines, who plays Dreamer in Supergirl (2015), wrote a Dreamer story for the 2021 DC Pride special, the first appearance of Nia in comics. |

Cobra Kai: The showrunners allowed the actors a lot of input into how their characters had changed since the events of the original The Karate Kid movies, along with fleshing out their backstories. Most of Johnny Lawrence's backstory (having an abusive home life and seeing Kreese as a father figure), was created by William Zabka during the first film as a way to get a better feel for the character. Martin Kove, similarly, long ago had developed the idea that Kreese was a Shell-Shocked Veteran whose wartime experiences traumatized him into cruelty. This was adapted in the show's third season, which focuses heavily on Kreese's Start of Darkness. In season 3, Tamlyn Tomita worked with the creators to offer a more accurate depiction of Okinawan culture than The Karate Kid Part II, helping to translate script passages into Okinawan dialect and choreographing Kumiko's dance scene. Yuji Okomoto had a long phone conversation with Josh Heald soon after he was cast, where he offered suggestions about Chozen's growth since The Karate Kid Part II. He was surprised and flattered at how many of his ideas made it into the show. |
