If you are into “TV Shows”, you know who Jenji Kohan is, you know she became a professional writer at 22, was the only female writer in writers rooms for many years, that she was Weeds‘ Showrunner for seven seasons (the show that put Showtime on the map), and that she is behind the current Netflix hit Orange Is The New Black. For many years, there was no substantial video to be found about Jenji Kohan until remembered that they had been sitting on a 2h30 ‘conversation’ with Kohan recorded 4 years ago. Although the conversation got a bit out of hand as moderators Robin Schiff and Winni Holzman had (in my opinion) a tendency to over-share their stories and feelings when the focus should have been much more on Kohan, and more time should have been given to the audience to ask questions, there is still plenty to learn from one of the most exciting and creative Showrunner producing quality TV. The first thing to say about Jenji Kohan is: forget about PC, this woman is fearless. She is 100% honest, no matter the aspect of the job she is talking about.

When you watch or read interviews with people who are in the business, they always are very quiet about what happens in the trenches, unless they want to express gratitude or admiration to so and so. Which is very nice, but doesn’t give a realistic picture of what it is to work as a staff writer or a Showrunner. Kohan tells it as it is, talking -for example- about her rocky relationships with Weeds Star Marie-Louise Parker, and some of Showtime Executives, even though Weeds was still airing when this conversation was taped.
