TV Showrunner Roundtable video

Watched the Hollywood Reporter roundtable discussions - they have them for different genres. But really got a lot out of the TV drama showrunner's roundtable. I think as the clear line of demarcation between TV and film has disappeared with the decreasing quality of films and the increasing quality of TV stories, these folks are really becoming the Top Guns of writing.

It's one thing to churn out a great feature, but when you can turn out 22 episodes a year, you a bad man/woman.

Anyway, there are people who write and people who are writers. This is for true writers with ink for blood.
 
My favorite take-away from Aaron Sorkin...

"Don’t do anything you’ve done before, because you’ll be bored. Don’t do anything for money, or you’ll be bored."
