"Showrunners" is a lively snapshot of the not-always-easy intersection of art and commerce.

Showrunners...would make a good fit in the WGA showrunner training program glimpsed throughout the film.

Movie Mezzanine
"Showrunners: The Art of Running a TV Show" should probably be required viewing in film/TV studies classes, but as a mass-consumption documentary, it doesn't quite pass the test.

I'm sure there are hours of outtakes of showrunners sharing gold, but the pieces Des Doyle compiled illustrate both the micro and macro concepts in a compelling narrative for both casual fans and industry insiders.

SHOWRUNNERS is a lively snapshot of the not-always-easy intersection of art and commerce....The men and women who share their experiences here are an endlessly witty, hyper-articulate bunch.

Product Description:
Des Doyle's documentary SHOWRUNNERS takes an inside look at the people responsible for some of the many landmark television series that dotted the airwaves during a time many regard as the second golden age of television. He interviews such industry heavyweights as J.J. Abrams (LOST), Terence Winter (BOARDWALK EMPIRE) and a writer on THE SOPRANOS, Ronald D. Moore (BATTLESTAR GALACTICA), and Joss Whedon (BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER). Each talks about how they brought their unique visions to television.
