A quick read; fairly entertaining: competent, bland, tactful. I have long been curious as to how Madelyn Pugh became successful at a time when television writing was dominated by men; I admit I was hoping for an Unsinkable Molly Brown tale, imagining her to be sort of a bitchy, backstabbing, beer-guzzling, clawing-her-way-to-the-top gal. No such luck. Damn! Basically, she paints herself as a Bland Token Woman Employee: a hard-working dame who mostly thought like a man and didn’t cause the network execs trouble.
