Emily Schmidt

Our guest this week is TV writer EMILY SCHMIDT! Emily was the Writers' Assistant for Netflix's "Girlboss," staffed on the Netflix multicam "No Good Nick"and an on-set joke writer for Kay Cannon’s "Blockers." When she’s not writing or trying to write, Emily is usually watching "The Golden Girls" and baking!

She’s currently writing for a new series on FOX called ‘This Country,” led by Jenny Bicks & Paul Feig! It’s a mockumentary comedy based on a British series, following a pair of cousins as they go through their daily lives in “idiosyncratic surroundings.” The half-hour series also stars Seann William Scott, Aya Cash, and Taylor Ortega, and was actually FOX’s first pickup of the 2021-22 season!
