In this week’s Hollywood Stories, Richard Rushfield sits down with TV comedy legend Nell Scovell — creator of Sabrina the Teenage Witch and writer for everything from The Simpsons to Late Night with David Letterman.Before breaking into TV, Scovell sharpened her voice at Spy and Vanity Fair, where editors Kurt Andersen and Graydon Carter taught her to “be funnier, go harder, be meaner.” She shares how she defied her agent to leave Vanity Fair and dive into the boys’ club of TV writers rooms, a dynamic she was still battling decades later — even on The Muppets in the 2010s.She also opens...

Episode 38: Nell Scovell
“Writing is not what you start,” writes podcast guest Nell Scovell in her scathingly funny memoir Just the Funny Parts. “It’s not even what you finish. It’s what you start, finish, and put out there for the world to see.” Indeed, Nell offers this observation from a place of hard-won experience. A veteran television writer (“Newhart,” “The Simpsons,” “Late Night with David Letterman,” “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour,” “Murphy Brown,” “Coach,” and on and on), Nell understands what it means to get an idea on its feet and out in front of an audience. As Sheryl Sandberg’s collaborator on th...

Но вы держитесь
Тени нет
Бывает так, что теневые проявления многообразны и нависают над нами, и мы знаем, что с ними что-то надо сделать, но не спешим. Страшно же.Тут как нельзя кстати придется история Афины-Паллады, древнегреческой богини, которая интегрировалась во все мужское и начала повелевать умами, сердцами и военными подвигами многих мужчин. Но вот свои теневые проявления Афина так до конца и не приняла и не осознала, из-за чего не то, чтобы была счастлива в любви и женской дружбе.Об Афине, мужских и женских перегибах, а также большом человеческом желании расквитаться со своими теневыми проявлениями и оставить их все позади — в новом выпуске «Но вы держитесь».Упоминания:– Lean In, Nell Scovell and Sheryl Sandberg;– Goddesses in Everywoman, Jean Shinoda Bolen;– Gods in Everyman, Jean Shinoda Bolen.Наша книга «Аутентичная коммуникация.

She's Fierce, She's Funny and She Put Words in Obama's Mouth: A Conversation with Nell Scovell
When TV Writer Nell Scovell wrote her now famous tell all expose in Vanity Fair about the behind the scenes exploits at Late Night with David Letterman, some thought it would ruin her career.

On this episode of "Washington for Beautiful People," Nell and I chat about the WH...
