Write On talks with legendary TV writer Marta Kauffmann about
the highly anticipated Friends reunion and what
makes the show still resonate today. "I think these characters
[are] incredibly loveable, and you'd love to hang out with them and
have a beer with them and invite them into your home. The show is
kind of warm and cozy, and I don't know that that goes out of
style."
Marta also talks about her approach to showrunning and how to
get the best out of writers. "The best way to lead is by
collaborating, and as a showrunner, I feel like one of my jobs is
I'm like the camp mom where everybody in the production camp are my
campers; they're my kids, and I have a responsibility to make sure
that they are happy doing this job. I work really hard for a happy
crew."
