I love behind the scenes stories, especially those involving TV, especially those involving TV shows I either love or hate. So the book is a 5 on that basis alone. Also there were great and frustrating stories about David Letterman, Bob Newhart, and about how networks and agents and personnel turnover allow shows to succeed in spite of themselves. Also it's tough to be a female writer in Hollywood. I think we all knew that, but this really lays it out for you.
