But the thing is... writing by committee has always been the norm- including for Seinfeld, which makes me wonder how much he was actually involved in the writing process.
The very idea of a writer's room is writing by committee.
I got the sense he meant more that it would go up through business-side committees to double check the work and make sure it wasn't inappropriate. If that was the case that again would be an indication of corporations being risk adverse.
That's also always been the case.
It's stupid for Jerry Seinfeld, of all people, to claim that executives don't constantly meddle in shows to make sure audiences don't get pissed off.
