In part one of this debut episode of Experience Curve, Joe Steele is joined by Jay Moriarty, Emmy winning writer and producer to discuss his start in comedy television & his experiences working with a writing partner.
Jay Moriarty has written and produced half-hour comedies including The Jeffersons, All in the Family, Good Times, Maude, What’s Happening Now!!, Dear John, The Royal Family, Here and Now, Cosby, Los Beltran; developed and written pilots for networks and studios including CBS, NBC, ABC, Warner Bros., Columbia, Paramount; and served as an Adjunct Professor in the Writing Division of the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts (film school) for eleven years.
In Honky in the House, his very personal and unapologetic account of breaking into the entertainment business, Jay Moriarty serves up a master class in the essentials of writing and producing a TV series. Moriarty was able to realize his Hollywood dream of writing relevant comedy at a time of national upheaval--movin’ on up with TheJeffersons, first as a writer then as Executive Producer. Jay introduces us to some of the leading minds in television comedy, including legendary Norman Lear, the first TV producer to successfully combine humor with biting social satire.
Jay is also the author/creator of the classic Sherlock Holmes board game 221 B Baker Street which has sold over 3 million games in eight different countries.
