MIKE ON RADIO: Discussing the Changing TV Pilot Season with KCRW's "Press Play"



On Tuesday's edition of KCRW's "Press Play with Madeleine Brand," I joined my former Variety colleague Cynthia Littleton to talk about the upheaval in the TV pilot process this season.

Here's how they described the segment:
We’re in the middle of March Madness - the basketball tournament - but that’s also a perfect name for TV’s pilot season. This is the height of the network’s annual scramble to produce new shows and roll out their Fall line-ups. It’s a costly and slightly crazy tradition - and it’s only gotten costlier and crazier. For years, network executives have said that they were going to do things a better way. Now it seems like that’s finally started to happen.

Listen below! The segment starts 16 minutes in.
