Paul Robert Coyle on CHiPs, Crazy Like a Fox, and Columbo

TVC 522.2: Television writer/producer Paul Robert Coyle talks to Ed about his experiences on Crazy Like a Fox and CHiPs, and the meetings he had with Peter Falk near the end of the ABC run of Columbo; the importance of paying attention to a producer’s notes whenever a writer receives them; and why even a one-line handwritten rejection note is better than no response at all. Paul’s memoir, Swords, Starships and Superheroes, 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.
