Yep, it’s the real Netflix-- the streaming behemoth who bagged 44 Emmys in 2021, more than any other network or platform for the first time ever.
We’ll be lightly prodding Pete about what he and his colleagues at Netflix look for in scripts. Some of you will get the chance to ask Peter a question!

Pete will share insights on what he looks for when working with writers, the types of stories and genres he gravitates to the most, and more!
