Take 116 - Writer, producer, showrunner Ted Cohen, Friends, Veep, Succession

The One with 4-time Emmy winner Ted Cohen.
We speak to Ted about his time on Friends, what’s it like to win an Emmy and how we coped after coming off Friends and spending ten years in the development wilderness.
We talk about the switch from comedy to drama, writing for himself and getting on Veep.
Then we hear about Succession, working on a game- changing project, his desire to create his own show and when you know you’re working on something special.
A fascinating discussion with an award winner with some of the best tv credits in the business.
