How to Write for Certain TV Actors

TVC 522.1: Part 2 of a conversation that began on our Dec. 18-20 program with television writer and producer Paul Robert Coyle. Paul’s memoir, Swords, Starships and Superheroes, not only includes great behind-the-scenes stories of his experiences on such shows as The Streets of San Francisco, Barnaby Jones, CHiPs, Crazy Like a Fox, Xena: Warrior Princess, Hercules: The Incredible Journeys, and Stephen King’s The Dead Zone, but includes many useful tips on how to pursue a career as a professional writer—whether you want to write for television or any other form. Topics this segment include Paul’s work with producer Philip Saltzman on Barnaby Jones and Jake and the Fatman; why writer/producer Ed Lakso was an early inspiration for Paul; and what to keep in mind when writing for certain TV actors.
