Barbie Adler Meets World

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

We’re heading back into the Boy Meets World writer’s room to learn about crafting a sitcom, directly from Emmy award winner, Barbie Adler. 
 
Barbie reveals how a clerical error, and fetching comic books, led to her first writer’s room and penning Season 5 classics like “Raging Cory” and “Eric Hollywood.” 

And she shares stories from other legendary shows on her resume, like Arrested Development, How I Met Your Mother and Nobody Wants This.

It all started with Shawn, Eric & Topanga - but only one cast member caused the most rewrites! Find out who when we go behind the scenes on a new Pod Meets World…
