Video: How a TV show gets made

This gives a pretty good idea about how a TV show gets produced.

I worked with my friend Rick Duffield on the Peabody Award winning PBS series he created and ran called “Wishbone”. The first season, they did 40 episodes in 52 weeks. That involved working with children, animals, period elements, and the early days of CGI. Just an insane schedule and to this day, it amazes me that the crew pulled it off.

If you want to write for TV, you’ve got to work well under pressure, understand that rewriting is a way of life, and be able to get along with people really, really well.
