The Writers' Room: New TV Series

[Frank W. Baker]

The Sundance Channel's new roundtable series The Writers' Room presents a weekly behind-the-scenes discussion about the creative process of some of television's best shows.(Monday nights, check local listings for the exact time and channel in your area.) The well-chosen lineup (including Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, New Girl, Parks and Recreation, American Horror Story and more) runs the gamut of formats from across cable and broadcast platforms. Over the short course of half an hour, host Jim Rash (Oscar-winning writer, who is also an actor and director) hones the conversation among the writers and actors about their creative process, sometimes with illuminating results.
