Jessica O'Toole: The Hit TV Writer Behind Your Favorite Shows
Description
Introducing...Jessica O'Toole — the hit TV writer, producer, and showrunner behind Jane the Virgin, Greek, Charmed, The Summer I Turned Pretty, The Carrie Diaries, and more.
Jessica shares how she went from English major at Cornell to shaping some of the most binge-worthy shows on TV. We dive into how shows get made, what really happens in writers' rooms, and the script that launched her Hollywood career.
Plus, Jessica tells us how her Cornell days still influence her life and work today — and we even pitch her a (questionable) show idea of our own.
If you love TV, writing, or just a great "how I made it" story, this episode is for you.
HUGE thanks to Scarlet Fu for the introduction - we want in on that friend group.
