How Tracey Wigfield Worked Her Way to the Top: From ‘30 Rock’ Writer's Assistant To Emmy Award-Winning Comedy Writer


Listen Later

Do you remember your favorite television shows growing up––the shows that not only got you through your adolescence, but where you discovered your first ‘tv crush’ or shed a few tears during that ‘one episode’ that tugged on your heart strings and left you wanting more? We’ve all been there. And we bet you can recount those memorable scenes and quotes too. So where do the creators of these newly reimagined television shows even start when they want to reintroduce their beloved show back to the world? And how do they continue to keep their episode topics relevant and trending in an industry where the audience's attention is so quick to jump ship? Today I’m sitting down with producer and Emmy-Award-winning writer, Tracey Wigfield, to discuss exactly that - how she helped create and write the highly anticipated and reimagined Saved By The Bell TV Series, on NBCUniversal’s streaming service  Peacock. We’ll be tapping into the reimagined show, and the path that got her there - including her winning an Emmy alongside Co-Writer Tina Fey (Hello, amazing partner!) - and how she balances being a working mom in the process. Join the party on social @workparty and stay in-the-know at workparty.com.
