John and Craig welcome special guests Megan Amram (The Good Place), Tom Schnauz (Better Call Saul) and Matt Selman (The Simpsons) to talk about writing television, from staffing to breaking story to the challenge of short seasons.
Then we try out two new segments: How Could This Be Funny and An Aubry Plaza Type. Do they work? It’s debatable!
There is also a Q&A, which you can find as a bonus episode for subscribers at scriptnotes.net.
Recorded live at the Writers Guild Theater on July 25, 2017. Thanks to the Writers Guild Foundation for hosting us, and a terrific audience.
