This episode of the TV Write Now podcast is actually a vodcast, and my special guest is Bates Motel co-creator/executive producer/writer Carlton Cuse! We enjoyed a terrific conversation about his experience creating and writing Bates Motel with Kerry Ehrin (Friday Night Lights) and “binge watching” shows, and of course we reminisced about LOST.

On this installment of the TV Write Now podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with two of my favorite TV writers – Steven Lilien and Bryan Wynbrandt. We first met at the Alcatraz premiere on Alcatraz in early 2012; they were executive producers and writers on the series – and were kind enough to share on this podcast what they had planned if the show had been renewed! I actually had an Alcatraz theory site, so it was quite a treat to hear them talk about their plans for future episodes.

Bryan and Steven have also written for Kyle XY and CSI: NY, and are now on the writing staff of Hawaii Five-0!
