SHOWRUNNER

SHOWRUNNER is a weekly newsletter about the shows replacing TV. We write about what's going on in the world of videos that live on the feed — the people making them, the business behind them, what's working and what’s not. The goal is to learn who is replacing Hollywood and how they’re doing it.

The topics we dig into are the ones we’re all whispering about: How do these shows actually make their money? What happens when someone copies your format? Why do some shows with huge reach feel like they don't matter, while others with smaller audiences feel like the center of the culture?

Each issue features a piece of reporting about this new media industry, followed by a news roundup of what happened over the week. If you're running a show, want to start one, or simply find this world interesting, this is for you.
