Watchlist:
As a writer named Mike struggles to shepherd his semi-autobiographical sitcom into development, his vision is slowly eroded by a domineering network executive named Lenny who favors trashy reality programming. The irony, of course, is that every crass suggestion Lenny makes improves the show's response from test audiences and brings the show a step closer to getting on the air.
Why you might like this:
Fans of sharp satire and dry, insider humor will appreciate director Jake Kasdan's 2007 film The TV Set, which uses the behind-the-scenes development of a TV pilot to skewer the business of network television. With standout performances from David Duchovny and Sigourney Weaver, the film offers a witty and insightful look at the creative compromises and corporate meddling that often undermine the artistic vision of writers and producers.
