This analysis certainly drives home why you emphasize Action-Comedy-Thriller as the genres for spec scripts, Scott.
What I take away as a comedy writer: the key to success is comedy that works on the international market. Write a spec with lots of physical comedy and situational comedy rather than relying on dialogue, with a premise with universal appeal, and you've got a much stronger chance at a sale.
Also, I know a lot of people were writing action films or thrillers for GOYOQ--and it makes me very excited for their prospects. :)
