INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY OF TELEVISION ARTS & SCIENCES

President’s Report 2018 International Academy President & CEO Bruce Paisner at the March Board & Members Meeting

n a year of increasing turmoil in the world, the Academy focused on its two primary missions: presenting Emmys for excellence in television and organizing panels and speakers to help explain the turmoil. With members from 60 countries and every aspect of television production and distribution, the Academy is particularly well positioned to monitor and explore the seismic change we live with today in the political, economic and technology spheres.

Our next big event will be an exploration of Brexit and particularly its implications for media around the world. Right now, the staff and our partners at British America Business are deep in preparation for a gathering in London next March 14 and 15 to examine what will happen when Britain exits the European community on March 29.

Our events this year have included a presentation from Boston Consulting Group (BCG) at our Spring meeting on the state and expected pace of change in the media industry, and a visit to Paramount Pictures at the Fall Board meeting. The BCG meeting featured a presentation

by John Rose, the Co-Head of BCG’s Media Practice. At Paramount our member Dan Cohen, President of Worldwide TV Licensing for Paramount, hosted the event and interviewed Luke Davies, the Oscarnominated writer who is writing Catch-22 as a TV miniseries.

In April, in partnership with Reed Midem, we present our Kids Emmys at MIPTV and this year added a panel on the current trends in children’s programming. In early October we present our News Emmys in partnership with the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. At a time when intense and unwarranted pressure is being applied to news media around the world simply for doing their job, this ceremony and our participation in it had special importance.

To help underwrite everything we do, we received significant support from a number of media organizations around the world. We 4

are particularly indebted to Phoenix Satellite Television and its Chairman, Liu Changle, and to Globo, the leading media company in Brazil, and the Marinho family.

One aspect of the Academy in recent years that is particularly gratifying to me is the excellence and continuity of our Executive Committee. I want to acknowledge Fred Cohen, our Chairman; Simon Sutton, our Secretary; Kevin Beggs, our Treasurer and Co-Chair of our Special Awards Committee; as well as Abbe Raven, Adriana Cisneros, Bruce Tuchman, Rainer Siek, Larry Gershman and Armando Nuñez, Jr. This year, like every year, the heart of the organization was our professional staff, led by the incomparable Camille Bidermann Roizen, Senior Vice President and Executive Director. The staff runs the organization on a day-to-day basis and manages our Board & Members meetings, our Academy Days, and our increasingly complicated and broad-based Emmy Judgings.

The International Academy works closely with the Television Academy in Los Angeles and the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. We participate directly with the National Academy in the News Emmys. I am grateful to our many helpful colleagues at both organizations: Hayma Washington and Maury Mcintyre at the Television Academy and Terry O’Reilly and Adam Sharp at the National Academy.

My job at the Academy is made easier and my professional life more rewarding by my continuing relationship with Hearst and its President and CEO, Steven R. Swartz. Steve’s ability to manage Hearst, and carry on his outside responsibilities, while also serving as Chairman of the Associated Press, is impressive. Steve and his predecessor as Hearst CEO, Frank A. Bennack Jr., Executive Vice INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018 -2019

Chairman, understand the interrelationship between business, government, health care and the arts, a talent that is both rare and deeply valuable in times like these. Their continuing support of the Academy’s mission is crucial and deeply gratifying.

In the 1930s, at the depth of the Depression and the height of the New Deal, one of the prouder, more meaningful statements of participation and commitment was the simple slogan “We Do Our Part.” I do believe that in difficult times like these we should all be able to say we do our part, and I also believe that the Academy, in its many activities across the globe, adheres to that simple but meaningful commitment.

Rola Bauer Rola Bauer, Managing Director, STUDIOCANAL TV, is a Golden Globe® and two-time Emmy® nominated producer and co-production pioneer. that there are stories in and beyond our backyards that move, entertain and enlighten us. Chapeau!

hat does being the 2018 Gala Chair mean to you?

To be chairing the 2018 International Emmys Gala is a huge honor and with it comes a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the strength of exceptional talent from all over the world.

We are now seeing such a wide array of international productions bringing us and the world closer together, connecting audiences globally.

I have been privileged to be part of the international television market for my entire career, so it is very rewarding to see our industry truly opening up to new and exciting forms of narrative.

This also makes my work as a board member of the International Academy—and now chairing this year’s Gala—all the more meaningful personally, as the International Emmys have been instrumental in raising awareness and showing the borderless possibilities of good storytelling, encouraging us all to think beyond our own limits.

We all owe a debt of gratitude to Bruce Paisner, Camille Bidermann and the entire International Emmys team for their tireless efforts to continuously raise this bar, allowing the entire world to recognize 6

How important is the international TV market for STUDIOCANAL? After having established itself as a label of quality in the film world, STUDIOCANAL launched into the international television industry in 2012 with the intention of becoming a true global player in both production and global distribution of quality television programming.

Since then, STUDIOCANAL has expanded its television banner to cover some of the most impressive talent and production companies in Europe today. Tandem Productions (Shadowplay, The Pillars of the Earth); RED Production Company (Safe, Happy Valley); Howard Overman’s Urban Myth (War of the Worlds, Misfits); Benedict Cumberbatch’s SunnyMarch TV (Patrick Melrose, A Child in Time); Adam Price, Søren Sveistrup and Meta Louise Foldager’s SAM (Below The Surface, Ride Upon the Storm); Guilty Party (The Inbetweeners) and Ramón Campos and Teresa FernándezValdés’ Bambu (Instinto, Cable Girls). STUDIOCANAL’s television division also invests in prestigious independent productions such as Cattleya’s ZeroZeroZero from the Gomorrah team, based on Roberto Saviano’s bestseller and directed by Stefano Sollima; and Yellow Bird (Occupied) for the new series Sanctuary, based on The Devil’s Sanctuary by Marie Hermanson.

STUDIOCANAL is always welcoming talented partners from around the world, helping them to put the pieces together, opening their productions up to the international market.

We believe STUDIOCANAL, with its European DNA and having invested in a number of leading European production companies, is an ideal partner for international productions. We produce locally and also in the English language, as well as creating compelling productions which can be formatted all over the world.

What are the biggest opportunities for STUDIOCANAL in the coming years?

We are delighted to be aligned with production companies, networks and platforms from major European countries that have become our partners within the STUDIOCANAL/CANAL+ Group. We are also privileged to work with talented U.S. producers and production companies. Each one has a unique voice—their own cultural and distinct characteristics—enabling them to deliver their creative visions to our group. These are exceptional assets for us and, in turn, our producing partners benefit from the scale, studio services support and international synergy that we can provide for them. With the opportunities that the multiple-platform universe offers, we are continuing to expand our programming portfolio by working closely with them in the future as well as with some exceptional third parties with whom we have long and fruitful relationships.

Anna Carugati and John Rose

March 15, 2018 New York City John Rose, Senior Partner & Managing Director, The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) Anna Carugati, Group Editorial Director, World Screen CARUGATI: So, my questions come very much from the point of view of a viewer who has a TV, whose Roku broke, who replaced it with an Amazon Fire Stick, who has two millennial kids—so I’m seeing how they’re viewing and I’m sure we are all in the same boat. So I wanted to start from the world that I grew up in, which was, well I grew up in the States and in Italy but in either case, there were traditional broadcast networks who piped their programs into my TV set with the antenna. Look at what we have today with all the choice. Let’s go back to the networks for a minute. What do they have to do to survive in this environment, or is their demise if rather than when?

ROSE: I don’t think it’s if rather than when, but you know in some ways all the networks have been the same; the free-to-air networks have been the general-entertainment networks that have a mixture 40

of news and sports and general entertainment and the pay-TV networks have been pretty similar to them without the news. Some of them over-rotated towards sports relative to entertainment, but the original thought behind pay TV was they were these narrow vertical channels that applied to very specific sub audiences and that didn’t work, so they morphed towards maybe thematically focused but more general-entertainment specific, but that’s not true for everybody. I think some of the answer is it’s going to disaggregate, and there are going be winners and losers. The winners are the ones that are going to be created and have a broader set of distribution rights for content that matters. The content that if it was only available for appointment-based TV, a large group of the population would go and watch—that’s content that matters, it’s mass content that becomes part of the cultural zeitgeist that many people need to see to engage and talk about. A decade ago it was Grey’s Anatomy as an example, when I was growing up it was the Mary Tyler Moore Show, All in the Family. Those networks who have created that programming and have distribution rights for that programming not just on a linear channel but in multiple parts of the world and by the way multiple pathways, multiple services, and have ownership rights that are not, air it twice in two years and then it disappears—those are winning models.

At the other end of the spectrum are those guys who are able to program compelling niche content even if it’s not mass, but a subpart of the population really, really cares about—for me, that would be Top Chef.

My family has watched every single episode of Top Chef, it’s not a mass program, it’s compelling niche programming. Some networks are doing a hell of a lot better at being what we call either ends of the barbell and the folks in the middle are going to get crushed. What we have today is a world in which the network companies are extracting an aggregate carriage set of fees for all of their different networks and there’s huge subsidies built in between the networks that either have the niche programming or the mass programming that people really want and where the actual dollars are theoretically being allocated because of the way 40 years of negotiations have evolved. So, the winners are the people who will in fact ruthlessly embrace the notion that they must be at either end and they must be at either end with ownership of the content they have and broad-based distribution that moves away from the brand that is the network and recognizes the brands are the shows, not the networks. I mean, pick whatever is your favorite show and ask yourself, Do you know what network it’s on? Maybe the people in this room do because we’re all in the television world. Go out and talk to consumers. Consumers will not know, they’ll know it’s on at 8 o’clock on Tuesday, but maybe it’s NBC or TBS—I can find it on the program guide.

Increasingly it is getting worse because two-thirds of them are watching it whenever they want to watch it because they know they can get it on Hulu and Netflix. So, the brand that’s NBC or TBS or Bravo has to lose power. You’re going to win if you’ve put together the team and the capabilities to source and own either a degree of mass content that matters or niche content that matters and you’re exploiting it in a lot of non-traditional ways. That’s a really winning formula over time, but by the way we probably have 150 too many networks. So back to the interconnected nature of this industry, how you get from here to there, you know Bob Bakish has announced that Viacom is going to focus on INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018-2019

five networks, but he’s not said what he is going to do with the other 26.

And that’s where a lot of the answers need to lie in terms of what’s the journey and what you do.

CARUGATI: Now, just to get back to the point you made a minute ago. So a CBS is hanging onto its network for the moment and has what drives appointment viewing—sports, big events like the Grammys and some of their successful shows—but they also have the CBS All Access app which is where they are putting more of their niche originals, Star Trek and The Good Fight.

ROSE: For CBS All Access to work you have to imagine a world where there are 25 or 30 of them that are working because there will be CBS All Access, NBC all access, ABC all access. You have got to assume there’s going to be a bunch of those and that they’re going to be able to pull mass audiences into them and you’ve got to ask the question, How many $4.99 apps are consumers going to buy? The problem is, if I want a raisin in this Indian pudding and a raisin in that Indian pudding...all of a sudden I’m back to I’m spending $70 or $80. If I’m spending $70 or $80 I’ll go buy the cable package; or maybe I’ll spend $45 and buy the virtual MVPD package. So the question is, What is it that will really be compelling? I don’t know the answer, but I’m skeptical that everybody will be able to do their direct-to-consumer app. For a direct-to-consumer service to work, there needs to be a

brand, that brand has to stand for a type of content and there needs to be enough mass, critical mass of that content so that when I go to it I’m satisfied. I had the unfortunate experience of being the only record executive who licensed both PressPlay and MusicNet back in the early days of digital music. MusicNet and PressPlay were the two music industry direct-to-consumer apps for music. PressPlay had Sony and Universal in it, MusicNet had Warner and BMG in it, and EMI was the only one in both. Alan McGlade, who was the CEO of MusicNet, said, “Let me explain why this isn’t going to work” and he put the top 200 songs of the week on a slide and then he blocked out 60 of them because he didn’t have Universal and he didn’t have Sony.

He said, “How good a consumer experience can this remotely be if 60 out of 200 songs are missing? Most consumers are not going to be happy coming to our service.” So, does CBS as a brand stand for a type of content that consumers would understand and when they go [to All Access] do they find enough of it? The more failure points of, I wasn’t satisfied, the greater the churn and the lower the subscribers. So in a fragmented world there is either an economic problem of, “I have 50 of them, I have to spend $50, $60, $70, $80” or, I have all these bad experiences, I’m looking for something. The single largest pain point for consumers in the video world is, How do I find what I want to watch? If I’ve got to say, I’m going to see what’s on CBS and OK, I’m going to pull out of that app now I’m going to go in the ABC app or maybe I should go to Netflix—that’s a bad experience.

Board Meeting in session CARUGATI: Yes, I agree. Let’s go to cable, satellite, telco for a moment; what do you see as their future?

ROSE: The telco and the cable guys, if you look at their economics now, they’re really not as much in the video business as they’re in the consumer broadband business, the consumer internet of things business and the B2B connectivity business. They’re actively figuring out how to diversify away from the video margins, which they see as under pressure and declining, [and toward] the use of video as a bundled contributor to their broadband service, their home security service, their home automation service and the other sets of services they offer consumers. As they move up from the small office/home office, enterprise sale to the medium-size enterprise sale of voice and data on a wired basis—and increasingly as you’re watching them move into wireless—they’re looking a hell of a lot more like telcos than media companies in terms of what they’re doing. To make their video businesses work, you have to move away from the walled garden and the protection of your licensed content to the enabling of a user interface [that gives] broader access to the content consumers have the rights to see. And the more you enable that the better off you are, and then you can start bringing in the data of what the viewing patterns are and then you can provide better experiences. In this complicated ecosystem, that’s going to really influence the nature of the negotiations between the MVPDs and the pay networks, because there is going to be a crunch point where somebody says, you know it’s just not worth it. The satellite guys are in a much more difficult position and you can see it in the stats. If the average drop was 3.7 from the MVPD universe and the satellite guys, which were about a third of it, was 4.8, there’s a pretty big voting difference on cord cutting between the satellite guys and the cable guys. That’s probably because the satellite guys don’t have the 42

interactivity in their platform that the cable guys do. The telcos, it’s really only two of them, AT&T and Verizon. Verizon doesn’t have a huge video footprint, Fios is much more about broadband and they seem to be betting their future on 5G as a very disruptive play. And AT&T, we’ll have to see what happens with Time Warner—they made an $80-plus-million bet that they’re going to vertically integrate. Let’s see whether or not it works.

CARUGATI: What do advertisers want, or does it depend on the brand? Do they still want that mass or do they want the type of targeted audience that big data and algorithms can deliver?

ROSE: Mass audiences still matter and targeted marketing matters. I think the real disruption issue is the imbalance between where the viewers who are watching that content are and where the ad dollars are. So, the first shift everybody should see is from the linear television universe to the nonlinear AVOD-supported television universe, because it’s sort of like where the cable industry was in the United States in 1996 and 1997—50 percent of the viewing was cable channels and 90 percent of the dollars were [with] the broadcast networks. The ecosystem of advertisers and agencies figured out how to shift dollars in ways that made sense and so the dollars shifted from free to air to cable nets—fortunately for everybody in the industry, that happened with not a lot of other alternatives and that happened with a degree of gradualness. That’s not how dollars have shifted in the advertising world of late, so you’re probably going to see a linear to OTT nonlinear bleed and everybody’s running data and analytics to try to make the ad sale transaction process more meaningful. There is a fallacy in the world that TV is going to move to programmatic and it’s all going to be real time, machine-to-machine individually targeted. They’re two problems with that. One is, no one INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018-2019

knows who’s actually watching this stuff, I know a household is watching it, but I don’t know who—there’s a data problem. But the other issue is the real-time programmatic display world is populated by millions of sellers and thousands of buyers. It is a very open ecosystem; television in any country, if you think about it, probably has five to ten players who are selling 80 percent of the inventory that matters; five to seven buying agencies that are buying 80 percent of the inventory that matters; and maybe 40 or 50 advertisers who are funding. That’s a small group of people who don’t want to give away their 80 percent advantage to the 20 percent who are spending a lot less. And the issue with an open ecosystem like programmatic is it puts everybody on the same footing. If I’m buying $18 million of television inventory, I want to use that leverage to get the spots I want, and I don’t want some guy who’s got a $3 million spend to bid a nickel more than I am and take the spots I want. The sellers, the publishers, the TV networks, don’t want to say, “Here’s all of our inventory—we’re sold out now so you can basically bid anything for it.” So, the game is different and I don’t see that going away. I see it shifting and we’re in the middle of an incredible revolution of incremental data analytics that are, in fact, making those buys more targeted—and we’re going to continue to see that, but it’s not like all of a sudden it flips and I’m buying your household versus yours.

Actually, you in your household versus one of your millennial children in your household.

We’re a long way away from that happening. I believe the advertising ecosystem should embrace Tara Levy’s model—she’s the head of ad sales for YouTube—in which she can stitch together and network-like buy off pre-roll across a thousand YouTube-based videos. That’s also going to take a while to evolve.

CARUGATI: Let’s move to the FAANGs—Facebook. Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Google. Netflix is growing its subscribers, but original programming is expensive and writers don’t grow on trees. How do you see Netflix continuing on its trajectory?

ROSE: What’s this thing that’s not like the others in the FAANGs? Netflix—because everybody else in the FAANG group isn’t a video player that needs video economics to survive, and Netflix does. Look, I think Netflix is a great service. I think Netflix will have a long future as a service. I’m not sure its economics hold up from an evaluation perspective. Its valued today as if OTT aggregation is a winner take all game and it’s being awarded for increasing its investment in original content and driving subscribers, and as long as it continues to drive subscribers at a very attractive pace, its valuation will increase and it will not have to drive earnings. And if you look at the economics, its value relative to its earnings is all about what it will be five years from now. So, the question is, Do you believe it will drive that degree of subscriber growth in a world where, assuming Amazon changes its approach to its studios, the $6 billion they’re spending will be valuable, the $1.5 billion that Apple has committed will be valuable, the $1.8 billion that Facebook has committed will be valuable? The big runaway hit last season came out of Hulu—Handmaid’s Tale. You can’t predict where the hits are going to come from. If you think about what the budgets were for the original free to air— they spend between $2 billion and $3 billion. So we now have the FAANG companies all spending at an above a critical mass threshold, so they’re all going to have hits and so at some point people are going say, “Wait a second, Amazon has a bunch of hits and I get it for free.” I mean there are more households who are Amazon Prime subscribers than there

t’s not the strategy, it’s the management and execution of the journey as it unfolds.

That’s where the real art of success is.”

are Netflix households, but many of Matt Young and them don’t use Amazon Prime; but Bruce Paisner all they have to do with no cost is look at it. So, all Amazon needs are a few hits and all of a sudden people will be sampling Amazon Prime Video because they already have it. And so I think it’s hard to see how Netflix, particularly in the U.S., continues to drive the kind of growth over the next five years that its had over the last five and at some point it’s not unlikely that the financial community is going to say, “Wait a second, your growth is slowing, we want to see earnings.”

And that’s sort of a negative virtuous circle—in order to have earnings I’m going to have to pull back on programming. If I pull back on programming, whatever subscriber push I have attenuates. My son said something that shocked me, just because it was a totally different way of thinking. He likes the show Stranger Things. Netflix in October came out with their new season of Stranger Things and he said, “Could we subscribe to Netflix for a month? I want to watch the Stranger Things episodes.” So we subscribed for a month, there was no need to continue to subscribe because all he really wanted to see was Stranger Things and then my wife got involved in The Crown so we binged The Crown—but the thing is, everybody’s acting as if this notion of a subscription is a permanent thing. Once you subscribe you are a user in this world where there is all this content and the little raisins in the Indian pudding—alright maybe I’ll subscribe this month to Amazon and maybe I’ll subscribe next month to Netflix and maybe I’ll subscribe the next month to something else, because by the way, I’m going to hop around and that’s how I will aggregate the hit content that I want to see; versus I’m going to add them all up and subscribe to all of them for a year. So, I think that there’s a lot of twists and turns and Netflix is worth a hell of a lot, I mean Netflix is worth $125 billion, Disney’s worth $145 billion or $150 billion—think about that for a second.

CARUGATI: Any questions?

QUESTION: What do you read and watch on a daily basis to stay on top of this industry and how do you read and watch it?

ROSE: You know, I have a lot of brilliant answers, this is a not brilliant answer. I don’t. I crowdsource. So I get Michael Nathanson [of MoffettNathanson], the 15 things they shoot out a day, and I talk to a lot of people. It’s really hard to not know what’s going on if you’re living in the ecosystem. I sort of go from conversation to conversation to confer. I’m more a verbal human being than a print human being, and then what happens is I find something that matters and I actually put time, effort, and energy to figure it out. So the last bit of time has been about how the network industry doesn’t understand the difference between digital video and digital television advertising. So I do a bunch of 46

interviews and I read a bunch of stuff but what I read is then purposely specific to that.

QUESTION: I have a lot of friends who aren’t in the media business and they ask, What’s happening in your business? And I say, Well, it’s a really scary time—20 years ago the music industry was this and now it’s gone down by half, that was three or four years ago, and now it’s coming back. Are Spotify and [similar services] helping the music business to climb back?

ROSE: They are but it hasn’t—I mean the value has been leeched out of the master recording, right? Music companies or record companies have figured out that they need more 365-degree deals with artists so they’re starting to fish in multiple revenue pools versus one revenue pool. It’s certainly true that Spotify and Pandora are providing dollars in, but they’re pennies and it’s not that it isn’t helpful and it isn’t growing, but growing from a $12 billion to $16 billion base versus growing from a $33 billion base is pretty significant. And most of the people who I know who worked in the record industry in 2001 don’t [work in it anymore]. We fired 51 percent of the people at EMI in the three years that I was there. So it’s great that the industry is growing again, but it’s growing in a world where there is almost no purchasing of physical music and almost no purchasing of digital music. The bulk of the revenue is secondary through the streaming services, and that’s great. But if you want to ask how much capital is being deployed in the creation of new artists from the record companies, who are the primary source of funding, it’s a lot less. And so I’m not sure that I would call that healthy, right? We had five major record companies, we sort of have two and a quarter now—and employment is half.

And, by the way, people are doing well in the music business. I’d love to be Coran [Capshaw] and own Red Light, which is a wonderful artist management engine that has morphed itself into a variety of different sets of services. I’m not sure you want to be Pandora or Spotify—you have to make up your own mind about what you think about those businesses.

quite a while and there must be reasons, I have no inside information, but there must be reasons why they haven’t. So, it doesn’t feel like a particularly stable place, yet there are glimmers of green shoots. I’m not forecasting that the TV industry is going to disappear, but there’s been a lot of blood along the highway to get from where the music industry is now to where it was. Investors, you know, the owners of the companies, have lost tremendous amounts of money.

The industry is worth a lot less now than it was then. It may be growing and that may be good. If you never knew about the music industry and you arrived on the planet now and you looked at it, it is probably pretty good; but the TV business is where the music business was in 2000, where it is now and that’s the challenge that we’re all facing.

and some of it’s going be SVOD and some of it’s going to be AVOD. I create this type of programming, have people become aware of it and want to watch it. That’s a good thing too. The, “I’m going to be a linear network and all I’m going to be is a linear network and I’m going to make money only because I’ve got carriage fees coming in plus advertising and I distribute it over a slowly declining distribution structure”— that’s probably going to fail as a business model. But I would argue that’s a failure of leadership and management, not a failure of the television experience overall. Winning and losing is going to be less about, I have a linear network, than, What do I choose to do and how fast do I choose to do it? I can fail by being too fast and I can fail by being too slow. So, what we’re going to see are some real winners and losers that are defined based on how they have evolved their organizations, not based on, I have the idea and I’ve figured out the answer. It’s going to be more how you manage through the multiyear journey than it’s going to be, I got the answer.

ow many $4.99 apps are consumers going to buy? So, the question is, what is it that will really be compelling?”

— John Rose

QUESTION: When television came along, there had never been anything like it. What you got was three or four stations, and they all had to start on the hour because there was no technology to make anything else possible. When cable television came along—I remember being very involved with all of this personally—the great difference was that you could slice and dice subjects because your whole point was you want a smaller audience and you would make money from a smaller audience and spend less money on the programming and that all worked fine. In the era of instant television, I’ll say Netflix but it’s any one of them, where you start watching a program anytime you want to, stop anytime you want to, you don’t need to be bothered by those commercials—my question is, What is the purpose of broadcast and cable television?

ROSE: Not every television experience is, I want to manage it and control it. If you look at the behavior patterns of people who watch nonlinear television, there are a whole bunch of them who also watch linear television because the experience of being able to say, let me flick around and see what’s on and let me choose from what’s on, is different from having to affirmatively go through databases to pick shows and also it takes effort and energy. In general, most people watch a Netflix show as opposed to bail out of it. The “I’m going to be watching four different TV shows at the same time and they’re all on and I’m going to skip from this one to that one or by the way, I never saw the beginning of the movie Salt and it’s on right now so I’m going to look” is a different experience.

I watched my daughter, who is 18, and a friend of hers last summer spend 20 minutes trying to pick what they were going to watch and not find something that they were happy with and I said, “Hey, I have a radical thought, Let’s just see what’s on.” And the next hour was great. That doesn’t mean that what’s on wins, it’s just that not all occasions of viewing are the same. If you’re Spectrum or Charter, or Spectrum or Time Warner or Comcast, I would argue that the business you have to make of it is, I’m going to curate everything and provide a world-class search and render capability.

There’s another business that says I’m going to create a lot of really cool niche programming and own it and create franchises on it. I’m going to have a linear channel because it’s a great barker channel.

I’m going to make money because of what I do in the other places I put it and I’m going to make money from the catalog over time 48

QUESTION: That suggests more and more that what happens at 8 o’clock on Thursday is irrelevant—what’s important is whether you built that whole ecosystem, right?

ROSE: I think that’s right. I think there are exceptions, I mean live television matters, so the Super Bowl will probably be for the next indefinite period of time a moment where the world’s going to gather. And for both drama and comedy, maybe the U.S. State of the Union. So there are very specific live things that matter or sports events that matter. It’s not the strategy, it’s the management and execution of the journey as it unfolds— that’s where the real art of success is going to be.

QUESTION: One thing you didn’t mention is news consumption.

Right now the President is basically saving cable news networks, but imagine a time where there will be no drama series in the news. Everybody is trying to make money out of a news business, which is hard in itself.

ROSE: Yes, news is the other big thing and honestly news has been a problem for decades—if you go back to the simple world that we originally came from, news wasn’t a very profitable thing back then either.

CARUGATI: No, but Paley did it anyway because he had to because he felt it was the jewel in his crown.

ROSE: And because without it, there were license obligations at the stations that required it and it was part of the contract between the government and the TV industry that they would. When Tisch bought CBS and GE bought NBC and CapCities bought ABC, they were all up in Washington in hearings about how that was going to change and influence the news. For a period CNN was incredibly profitable as a 24-hour news network and now Fox News is incredibly powerful as a news network. But we’ve never really existed in a world where video TV news has been a significant INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018-2019

generator of profitability. So one question is, what’s the normal? Is the normal it’s difficult to figure out how to make money but you do it because maybe you attract viewers or is the normal it’s a profitable business? And honestly, I am not sure. What I do believe, though, is that video is evolving—video capture, video editing and video distribution. If Fox News and CNN don’t figure out how to be in addition to linear on a distributed channel, nonlinear and mobile and PC and tablet-based, the video itself is going to find a way into Google and Yahoo and Facebook and a bunch of other stuff and there isn’t going to be a television news business anymore, there’s going to be Google’s news service, which will be text and video, there’ll be Facebook’s news service, which will be text and video, and it’s going to end up looking very different. And by the way, with the possible exception right now of Fox News, in 20 years the audiences for the current news channels are not going to be alive. Look at the advertising that you see on the news channels—and again, Fox right now is a bit of an exception, that’s five to eight years in a much longer history—it’s telecoms to stay in touch with your grandkids, it’s antacids, it’s denture cleaning stuff, which tells you something about the robustness. And if you say, Where are the 20-, 30-, 40-, 50-year-olds going for their news and their video news? It’s not the places we think of as television news.

QUESTION: Are we reaching, or will we not soon reach, a point of saturation? What do you think of the rise of Audible?

ROSE: I believe that audio is actually talk audio, not music audio. I believe deeply in the future of talk audio for all sorts of reasons. I INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018-2019

mean I’ll declare and say that I’ve been on the board of New York Public Radio for 20-plus years. When we bought the licenses from the city, the total philanthropic and underwriting revenue for WNYC’s stations was about $6 million dollars and now they’re about $100 million. In an industry where revenues have been flat or declining over that period, that for me is a very big demonstration of the power of talk audio. We’re the second-largest podcast producer in the country. What’s great about audio is the ability, at very low cost, to create compelling content that people want to engage with that doesn’t require them to use their eyes. What’s really interesting is the incidence of audiobook listening is two and a half times as large in connected cars as in non-connected cars.

Also, if you have a connected device in your home like an Alexa, the incidence of audiobook listening goes way up. So there’s no question that talk audio, whether podcast or otherwise, actually is a hidden growing thing because the expansion of distribution is providing much better outlets and much better coverage with many more access devices for content that’s really interesting, highly niche, and very cheap to produce. So there’s lots of opportunity for creative development and you can see it in the actual listenership, whether it’s the digital side of public radio or it’s the podcasts that public radio and non-public radio produce. That doesn’t mean we’re facing the death and destruction of video entertainment or video sports—and if you look at the stats, the actual consumption of video is increasing even when you take short form out, just traditional television. Do I think we’re hitting or reaching a saturation point? Sure. Do I think over time it’s probably going to decline a bit? I also think that’s true. I think it’s more true because of what the 15- to 26-year-old [males] are doing 51

because they’re watching a third of the traditional television content that the girls are watching and that they watched a decade ago. So, there are definitely things that are downward, but those are so subtle and so generational in their impact that all the stuff we’re talking about is going to play itself out way before those move through the broader ecosystem. But look, you can ask yourself, There’s $18 billion of original TV content that didn’t exist seven years ago and we’re producing twice as many original TV shows now than we did five years ago—is that going to continue? No, I kind of think we’re on a bubble.

QUESTION: You talked earlier a little bit about direct to consumer. There is a lot more now, there’s the skinny bundles—how do you see that?

ROSE: True à la carte coming out of the MVPD universe is hard to make happen, because the current problem with the pay-TV ecosystem in the United States is license agreements with multiple different providers. So, I’m Comcast, I have my set of agreements; Disney’s up in five years, AMC’s up in three, Turner’s up in seven; I have all of these different agreements, which have all of these different restrictions on what I can do. I had the wonderful opportunity to spend a month [on the] agreements of a particular MVPD and we had to do it with their outside legal counsel because no one in the MVPD actually knew. You see all these complicated interconnected agreements, meaning, you can do this with me but by the way it changes if you do this with those guys. And so, it’s really, really hard, you’d almost need to call a constitutional congress and get all of the MVPDs in a room with all of the cable network providers to do a one-time reset of all of these interlocking agreements. And that creates a real barrier to change.

People might want to do à la carte, I don’t know how you actually execute à la carte from a legal structure other than Amazon going down an à la carte path and consumers might like it, and if consumers do, you’re going to see Google and some other people who are not living with those five- to ten-year interlocked 52

agreements. But you know, if I want to create a skinny bundle as an example and I’m an MVPD who happens to have this term, I might have a 25-percent tiering agreement where I can have 25-percent of my subscribers at a tier below ESPN. But there’s a clause, 17 columns down, that says if an RSN is in they can’t be lower than a tier that an RSN is in. If I’ve cut a Fox Sports deal, they’re in the bottom tier; ESPN has to be in the bottom tier, so there goes my skinny bundle. And there’s about 15,000 of those in any MSO’s agreement. And then, each MSO is timed differently— so you have this incredible legal lock.

Now, Amazon has said, “Wait a second, you want TBS, you can have TBS,” and they’re selling à la carte.

So, it’ll be interesting to see how it unfolds. I actually think that consumers might like an à la carte universe, I just don’t know how the existing universe could ever get there from where they are. They’d all need to be in the room at the same time, and I can only imagine what the anti-trust attorney would say at the start of the meeting.

CARUGATI: And what about Discovery, AMC, A+E [and Viacom], who got together to form Philo. That’s their own skinny bundle. Where do you see those kinds of initiatives?

ROSE: Lots of people are trying the “we’re not big enough by ourselves so we’re going to group together to create a direct-toconsumer bundle and we’ll sell it.” I’ll come back to that. I think there are a couple of criteria that we have to apply on the success of any of these direct-to-consumer bundles. Number one: is there a brand that consumers understand? What awareness do people have of a brand like Philo or a brand like CBS or a brand like Disney or a brand like Netflix or HBO? How well understood is the brand?

How well known is the brand? And then secondly, How understood is the brand and how connected is that understanding to the content that sits underneath that brand? And third, Is there more than enough of that type of content so that when I go there, I’m satisfied? I think there’s lots of room for direct-to-consumer services to work, but you could fail for any of those three things. I love Shudder, which is AMC’s horror [service]. I actually think it meets category two and category three: Shudder the brand, you can understand it means B-flick horror movies; and, by the way, given the dynamics of the B-flick horror movie, it’s kind of easy to substitute one movie for another to a certain extent, so you go to want to watch a B-flick horror movie and it’s okay if you don’t find the one you want, there are seven others you’d be happy with. So there’s a high degree of, I find something I want when I go. I think where Shudder struggles a little bit is, it’s not known and relative to the target B-flick community it may not yet have universal awareness. But I’d argue that’s one you could totally understand working. A dedicated set of people, they self-identify as being interested in this genre, and if they understood it, it’s reasonably INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018-2019

EMMY_2018__EMMY_1107_NORWEGIAN 9/19/18 2:33 PM Page 1

EMMY_2018_MARCH_BOARD_ALT4_EMMY_1109_MARCH 11/1/18 6:31 PM Page 9

priced relative to a satisfying experience. You have to ask the question when you look at Philo, or CBS All Access, or what Viacom has announced but not yet introduced; are they going to meet those three criteria? If they don’t, I don’t think they work. And it’s not a direct answer, it’s a, How would you decide? answer. And I think what we will find in three years is there’ll be some failures and some successes. The successes will meet those criteria, the failures will have failed one of them.

CARUGATI: Let’s go back, because maybe this encapsulates a lot of what we’ve been talking about, the meaning of the Disney-21st Century Fox merger—the thinking behind it and how it reflects a lot of what we’ve been talking about.

ROSE: Look, I don’t know whether or not it will work, but it is a brilliant play. And what I mean by that is, what are the three criteria? You need a brand that stands for something if you’re going to win in the direct-to-consumer world. You need a recognizable brand. Disney and ESPN are for sure recognizable brands. They need to stand for content. Well, Disney for sure stands for kids’ content and they’ve done a pretty good job of expanding it out into general entertainment, and ESPN for sure stands for sports. And third, you need a critical mass so that when I go there I find what I’m looking for. If it fails, it fails on that third category; but the reason for the 21st Century Fox acquisition was to create a more level playing field in two ways. One is, the 21st Century Fox

54

acquisition bulks them up both on entertainment and on sports in a meaningful way, so the database is bigger and more meaningful.

And second, by taking that content and pulling it out of everybody else, it creates a different kind of level playing field because Netflix can no longer have it all and they may choose, which wouldn’t be the stupidest thing in the world on the entertainment side, to basically, now that they have control of Hulu, buyout the other guys, use Hulu as the vehicle. So it’s not a bad starting point for an entertainment direct-to-consumer [platform] and then take the technology that’s a Hulu platform and apply it to ESPN and play the MVPD game of the channels themselves, too. So you’ll get the live channels and you’ll get the database of nonlinear and nobody will have demonstrably more sports content than the ESPN thing and no one will have demonstrably more entertainment content and kids’ content than the Hulu-Disney app, so you could imagine it working. So, I understand the play, and if I were them, I don’t understand what option B would be. Time Warner, Disney, Discovery, Viacom, are in unstable places. The studios are fine, but the actual net businesses they have are in unstable places and so this is a great way—it’s a huge bet—but it’s a very thoughtful bet to try to level the playing field, be one of the meaningful direct-toconsumer apps that work, and it’s kind of like it’s that or sell to somebody else. The real downside risk is that Google and somebody else leech enough dollars out of the ecosystem so you just can’t make enough money. But from a strategic play, it’s a really good move.

FALL BOARD & MEMBERS MEETING AND EVENTS

In Conversation with Dan Dan Cohen and Luke Davies

September 14, 2018 Los Angeles Dan Cohen: President, Worldwide Television Licensing, Paramount Pictures Luke Davies: Writer & Executive Producer, Catch-22 COHEN: We’re here to talk about Catch-22 and Beautiful Boy. What sequence did you write them in? Do you write one thing at a time?

DAVIES: Well, the sequence was Lion, Beautiful Boy, Catch-22. I can, on occasion, write multiple things because I front load my preparation. I’m not a leave-it-to-divine-inspiration person. I dig down extremely deeply into very, very detailed treatments and plans and outlines. If I do that, there are times when, if necessary, I can jump from one task to the other because I have a blueprint already where I’m not relying on divine inspiration. [Laughter] So yes. I generally try to concentrate on one thing at a time, but I can occasionally juggle different tasks if there are different stages.

COHEN: Let’s go back to Catch-22. How do you get the idea to take on the Joseph Heller novel? Where did that come from? Did people tell you were crazy—or when they tell you you’re crazy, you don’t care? [Laughter] 98

DAVIES: Nobody told me I was crazy. It’s a very simple and a beautiful story. The New York-based producer, Richard Brown, came to David Michôd, my roommate and very good friend. He made Animal Kingdom, War Machine and The Rover. He had just done True Detective and he said, “We did a great thing with True Detective season one. The world likes us. We want to do other things. We think you guys are nice guys. Have you got any ideas?” The three of us had a meeting. I had an idea, David had an idea, and Richard had an idea. We had this two-hour meeting, throwing thoughts around. At the end of the meeting, we were getting up, putting our coats on, and I said, “I’ve got one more idea. Ever since I was 16, I’ve loved this novel so much. If we’re supposedly in the golden age of television, why hasn’t anyone done an adaptation of Catch-22?” Then Richard went away and discovered that Paramount had the rights. Within three days, there was a conversation beginning. It was a development deal for the first episode, but I kept writing. I was just really enthusiastic. I delivered episode two to my agent, delivered episode three, and he says, “Luke, stop writing. There’s no deal.” [Laughter] I just ignored him and delivered episode four.

COHEN: I recall you saying that it took a really long time to break the book down. It’s a tough book. It’s brilliant, but it jumps around in time and space.

DAVIES: We got a development deal happening, then I spent 9 or 12 months in absolute agony, alone in a room with whiteboards, INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018-2019

EMMY_2018_PRIMETIME_ALT_6_EMMY_1109_MARCH 11/2/18 11:25 AM Page 2

trying to work out how to unravel this incredibly dense, circular, kaleidoscopic novel. There was a lot of pain in that period of time, thinking I’m never going to crack this. I don’t know how to do it.

I don’t know what I’m doing. I have this deal for the first episode.

I’m running way over time. Then gradually, slowly, I found a way in, which was basically that you would need to unfold this story, this novel, into something fairly chronological in order to allow a canvas on which your characters can actually have emotional arcs that you can track throughout six episodes. Eight was my original thinking, but in the end I worked out that six was the right size for this adaptation. There are about 40 characters in the novel. There are 15-ish in the series.

I compressed some characters; two people became one. I took different things that different characters did and put them into a more coherent and a smaller cast, and a more coherent narrative structure to find a way of creating something that made emotional sense in terms of a journey that you would care about, not just for Yossarian, our lead played

by Christopher Abbott, but for the other characters who go on the journey with him and for those few who lived through the entire six episodes.

“

I

the first piece of dialogue? Who says what?” I already have this big chunky manual beside me to work with.

COHEN: Paramount made a movie that Mike Nichols directed in the early ’70s. Had you seen that?

DAVIES: I had seen the film as a cinephile teenager. I watched it again. I wasn’t worried that it would influence me in some bad way.

It was clear that we had a new canvas. We had the luxury of space in this new world. The biggest thing holding that film back was the lack of space, was the fact that this extraordinarily dense and glorious novel didn’t really lend itself to a two-hour canvas. In that movie, Nichols is recreating the kaleidoscopic, swirling structure of the novel. Cinematically, if you do that, you lose the emotional connective tissue. To us, the all-important task was to make this not just a great black comedy but sorrowful and serious, as it is in parts of the novel, and not [get] lost in the swirl.

t’s a glorious moment for TV for all of us right now.”

—Luke Davies

COHEN: You didn’t write any dialogue at that point. You’re really just trying to map out the episodes, what would happen in them and how you would have the story unfold?

DAVIES: Yes. At the same time, I was drawing up charts on whiteboards that try to map things out in my own mind, like here’s each character on the y-axis and on the x-axis—here’s where they have conflict or where they die or where they’re alone with their thoughts—and just try to find out how everyone fits and interweaves. Then gradually, I started writing a prose outline of the story. I had a private 90-page bible. Very, very dense, just filled with paragraphs of, “Then this happens, and then this happens, and then this happens.” In the end, that turned into our sexy 40-page public—public as in producers could start looking at it—and studio bible.

Then at a certain point, finally, I’m going to start writing episode one, so then we cut and paste paragraphs from the bible and we created scene headings in a final draft document.

On day one, the script is already about 15 pages long, just of giant chunks of prose. For me, that’s a really helpful starting point because at a certain point, I’m going to actually start going, “Okay. This is scene one. What do I describe happening in the very first paragraph? What’s INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018-2019

COHEN: We ended up with three principal partners, Hulu, Channel 4 in the U.K. and Sky Italia, but before we had any of them on board, we did have Luke and David’s scripts, and they were brilliant.

George Clooney enters the picture as executive producer, co-director, and he plays one of the important roles. He loves this book, which is why he stepped up. So you’ve got your scripts and now you have new voices, and there’s George, Grant Heslov, other producers. You have a third director, Ellen Kuras.

really funny, but then it gets really serious and really horrific. Talk about how it is to write something that has both of those things, and even to be on set where some days, you’re smiling as the things play out and other days, it’s really horrific, serious drama.

Board & Members Meeting in Session

start telling you, if they told you, “Oh, could we change this? This doesn’t work for me.” Is that just part of the process and you’re used to it?

DAVIES: No, I’m not used to anything. [Laughter] This is a new experience. My life has changed in the last couple of years. Lion obviously changed a lot. It wasn’t just that I wasn’t getting anything made. It was that I couldn’t even get a meeting in this town and I was plotting away, doing desperate little things, tiny little writing jobs here and there for money. There’s nothing about this experience that I was used to. The beautiful thing for me has been that there weren’t any changes to the script. George Clooney and Grant Heslov, and then Ellen Kuras came along. George had one single note, which was about the final scene of episode six. It was a great note. The way the series ends now is based on his note. I feel good that we created something that felt structurally watertight or that it was in very good structural shape. I don’t yet know what that experience is like of, change this, change that.

COHEN: I can actually attest to that because I read the scripts before the three directors joined. I read the scripts that they produced.

They are very, very similar. That doesn’t happen often, but your writing warranted it.

O

“

DAVIES: That is our aim and our ambition, to find a way of embracing the blend between the hilarious black comedy and the movement in the final couple of episodes towards a serious and sorrowful place about the nature of life and death and war. The casting of Christopher Abbott as Yossarian is brilliant because he can look after the comedy easily. He’s so agile. He’s so quick on his feet, but he’s got that beautiful quality deep in his eyes, in his very dark eyes. That kind of sorrow and sadness is absolutely spectacular. We’re ahead of things in the fact that Christopher Abbott, it turns out, is the most sublime piece of casting for the lead.

COHEN: For folks that don’t know him, one of our takeaways is this guy is going to be a star. He just has such command and charisma. He was in the HBO series Girls. He is in First Man. Kyle Chandler is in that as well. Kyle plays Colonel Cathcart. Originally George Clooney said, “I’m going to pay Colonel Cathcart.” Then George decided [to play] a character by the name of General Scheisskopf. Three companies had signed up for Catch-22. They expected George to play the colonel. George decides to play the general, a really great role but he’s not on screen as often as the colonel, so it becomes a business discussion of, “Well then, who’s going to be the colonel?” Fortunately, Kyle Chandler took the role and he is so well respected internationally and here that everybody was good with that. Talk a little bit about Kyle as the colonel because that’s another really central role in these six episodes and from what I’ve seen, Kyle really nailed it.

ne thing I did learn is that George Clooney is a much better salesman than me.

Anybody George spoke to bought the show.”

—Dan Cohen

DAVIES: David and I had a great session with George and Grant back in about February, which was their one and only note session.

That was when they dug deep and we got rid of a few scenes and we compressed a couple of twos into ones. I guess what I mean is that I didn’t have any experience of, “Oh my God. What are you doing?” I was like, “Oh, that’s a great idea.”

COHEN: We will be distributing this, obviously, and marketing it.

A lot of folks view Catch-22 not only as an iconic novel, but as a black comedy, and there is a lot of black comedy in it. One might take away from watching our production that the funny parts are 100

DAVIES: He’s fantastic. Colonel Cathcart is our most spectacular lunatic. There are a few lunatics in the show and Kyle, as Colonel Cathcart, is one of them. George as Scheisskopf is the other. They’re the most overt of our kind of villains. Kyle plays Colonel Cathcart as a barking, insecure maniac.

He is Yossarian’s most overt nemesis. He’s the one who keeps raising the missions. The whole six episodes is about Yossarian trying to get out of flying those missions in order to preserve his life.

Kyle’s great. He transformed every day as Colonel Cathcart. He transformed into this wonderful, imbecilic lunatic who makes everyone’s life a misery.

works in any medium. When you set out to write it, did you have any thought about where it should go?

DAVIES: I didn’t really project as to what format this might enter the world in. There were only a couple of possibilities. One is you see it once a week and the other one at the moment is that it drops all at once, but I wasn’t thinking of those things. I was just trying to make it through the process of the first nine months of agony of actually trying to unravel the novel. Then the next—way more pleasant—six months of actually diving in, and having fun, and creating the first drafts of all the episodes.

COHEN: You have made your mark adapting. You’re obviously skilled at it. Is it something that you especially enjoy doing? Is there original stuff that you’re writing as well?

Studio visit COHEN: Some days, Ellen’s directing, some days Grant, some days George, some days more than one director. Is that a tough thing for a production?

DAVIES: Yes. Logistically, and ultimately we were more efficient in crossboarding—that’s what it’s called when you shoot everything at once. You pay more money in the sense that all the directors have to be there for all four months, but you pay less money because you don’t have directors coming in and out. Then you shoot this stuff, and then you have to go and shoot this same stuff again. We clustered the things that we needed to shoot together, which ultimately saved us money. The price that you pay psychologically or logistically speaking for actors and directors is that you have to keep tracking where you’re at. On any given day, we would sometimes have all three directors shooting scenes. There were a couple of days where we shot scenes from five episodes, so in particular for some of the actors, there were days when they were shooting scenes from widely different parts of the story, different costumes, different psychological states and they had to track. They would literally go for a costume change and then, “Okay, so that was episode five when I was feeling this. Now I’m back in episode two and this is what’s happening at the moment.

This is the next thing that’s going to happen that I have to remember when I react like that. That’s about that.” That stuff could get really complicated and exhausting.

COHEN: I mentioned our three lead partners.

Hulu is a streaming service. Sky Italia is a pay service. Channel 4 is a broadcaster. I think it’s fascinating and really exciting that this property 102

DAVIES: I do enjoy doing that, but it wasn’t a grand plan. My background is as a poet and a novelist, so what I come from is the experience of being autonomous within my own creative process and inventing things, stories. I really want to write original screenplays or teleplays as well. I plan to and I’ve got a couple of things floating around, but I also really love the experience of adapting and I feel that as I mature in my skills, I’m getting better at learning what other things that one should be thinking about in adapting material. How to work out what’s going to work dynamically and cinematically and what kinds of things would be red flag issues, where things need to be discarded or aren’t going to work in the same way.

COHEN: Did you enjoy producing?

I’m a big believer in formally structuring the architecture up front and giving as much detail as possible. That also gets everybody, including producers and studios, on the same page as early as possible. I think less surprises is a good thing and then I feel free to do the creative stuff.

QUESTION: When you have three directors and you’re crossboarding on the episodes, do they actually edit their own or do you have to have that responsibility of the global vision?

DAVIES: Yes, it was a huge learning curve for me. It’s another ambition. I was like a sponge on Catch-22, trying to see how everything fits together, the skills of being a producer, what goes on, how people deal with personalities, but also an ambition and a fantasy that maybe there’s a version where I can direct something. I believe in myself, I believe I can. I just need to be really open to the path that unfolds and I’m on one now to do with screenwriting. I’m happy, but this other path, yes, I’ve got some things that I’m prodding, and pushing, and trying to work out how to make happen.

COHEN: Do we have questions that I haven’t asked that you guys would like to ask him?

QUESTION: When you approach a television miniseries, aside from the fact that it’s going to be longer than a feature film, are there a lot of other things that go through your mind? Do you write each one rather differently or, by and large, a miniseries is just a movie with more climaxes?

DAVIES: Everything was new to me, so I had a lot of anxieties. Do I know what I’m doing? Do I know how to make this work? Now, a lot of that stuff is just instinctive. Each episode should feel climactic when it ends. The novel was so rich that it was not hard to find...six amazing moments, although we had to do a lot of massaging to make things fit and work. There was a lot of experimentation, but again, doing enough groundwork was my safety blanket. It helped me prevent making too many mistakes. I would make a lot more mistakes if I took the attitude of, “You know what, I’m just going to start writing and see where it leads me.” I would waste a lot of time if I did that, so 104

DAVIES: No. The current procedure is that each of the three directors will deliver their director’s cuts. That’s complex.

There are six executive producers—myself Harold Mendez talks about and David Michôd, Richard Brown and his work during a studio visit Steve Golin, and George Clooney and organized by The Cultivist Grant Heslov. In the case of Clooney and Heslov, they will deliver their director’s cuts to themselves, among others, for reviewing and notes. Grant Heslov does episode one and five. Ellen Kuras is two and three. George Clooney is four and six. Each of them is responsible for their own edit, but then we’re a smallish team.

COHEN: Dan the salesperson told all of his clients that George would be the supervising director and George was absolutely on set every day, all day.

DAVIES: It is clear that this is and will be seen as George Clooney’s Catch-22. Rightly so, it’s his guiding vision.

COHEN: It was interesting, He and Grant Heslov, it’s a pretty special relationship both professionally and otherwise, but professionally, they work really well together. They can finish each other’s sentences, so they were very efficient working together. They hadn’t worked with Ellen before. She happens to be a consummate cinematographer and she stepped right in and very quickly fit in with George and Grant nicely, but those two already had a leg up because they’ve spent a career working together.

QUESTION: Is there any genre that you haven’t worked in that you are excited about or would want to work in?

DAVIES: Yes, giant sci-fi, but I feel lucky. My anxiety was “All right, I don’t want to be pigeonholed.” Here’s what I really love, to build a reputation as someone who’s good with character and story. Right now, I know it’s a surprising blend if you take Candy, and Catch-22, and Lion, and Beautiful Boy, and a couple other things that are hovering and what will come, so I hope I’m doing that.

COHEN: We’re not having any trouble finding buyers for this one, and one thing I did learn is that George Clooney is a much better salesman than me. Anybody George spoke to bought the show. [Laughter]

QUESTION: Did you have a writer’s room working with you?

DAVIES: No writer’s room. David Michôd and I are the co-writers of Catch-22. I wrote the bible and the first drafts of the first six episodes over this 15-month period. Then he and I worked together on the rewrites for a couple of months.

Soon after that is the point where the Clooney-Heslov situation begun to arise, so David and I are the co-writers but he was an absent executive producer. He was off shooting his latest film in Hungary.

COHEN: Early on, you mentioned David is your roommate or your housemate. It’s like a gang of INTERNATIONAL EMMY® 2018-2019

Human smugglers reveal—on camera—the secrets of their trade. We offer an inside look at the industry that has brought millions of migrants to Europe, while European politicians promise to put an end to the uncontrolled and illegal influx.

With no other way to survive, Abu Ahmed resorted to selling one of his kidneys. So did Abdullah, in exchange for free passage to Europe. But things didn’t go as planned as they have been duped by remorseless and unscru pulous organ brokers, like Abbas, who cheated them.
