I've been an Executive Producer on twelve scripted TV Series and I can honestly say that everything I've learned about how to sell, create, and operate a show is contained in Neil Landau's The TV Showrunner's Roadmap. Anyone with the ultimate goal of becoming a Creator/Executive Producer of a television series should read this book, as should anyone interested in knowing how their favorite show came to be. — Gavin Polone, television and film producer, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Gilmore Girls, Twisted, Zombieland, Panic Room Neil Landau, screenwriter, producer and one of Hollywood's best writing teachers, has blessed us with this amazing guide to the world of television writing and show running. I wrote and produced television for twenty-three years and I learned invaluable skills from this book that I never even aquired on the job." — Fred Rubin, veteran TV producer; UCLA Professor of Screenwriting; and Instructor for the ABC/Disney, Warner Brothers, and Nickelodeon Writers' Fellowships Neil has not only beautifully and succinctly tackled an enormous subject — what it takes to be a television showrunner — he also has provided a blueprint for any writer forging through the turbulent and ever-changing waters of producing TV series. He gives good common sense information and advice on working in television. And he writes in a clear, understandable, and entertaining way. But the unique value of the book is the interviews from an impressive list of top showrunners, who recount their own experiences. I'd recommend this book to anyone looking for a career in the television business. — Stephen Tao, Television Executive, Bad Robot Productions Neil's book is a must-read for anyone serious about the craft of writing for television. His analysis of the fundamentals is clear, precise, and entertaining.

Then I'd get every producer, studio honcho, development executive, and summer intern to read it, too ... because Neil's book really IS the roadmap to TV series in the 21st century! — Tana Nugent Jamieson, Senior Vice-President, in charge of all scripted programming, A&E (Bates Motel, Longmire, The Glades) The ultimate "how to" guide for anyone working in TV.
