SAMANTHA MCINTYRE, Writer

This week, we chat about the recent DGA report on female and minority TV directors and how they directed 50% of all episodic TV this year. Then, we interview writer Samantha McIntyre, who recently wrote Netflix’s Unicorn Store, directed by Brie Larson. Samantha has written for HBO’s Bored to Death, TBS’s People of Earth and is an alumnus of both the Warner Bros. Writers Workshop and the Sundance Screenwriters Lab (where Unicorn Store received the Annenberg Film Fellowship Grant). Samantha is currently a Supervising Producer on NBC’s upcoming musical dramedy, Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist.
