  4. All of the to be honest. I trink the flash, arrow and LOT are the Most successful oben though. Shonda as well but she receives a Lot of criticism

    ReplyDelete
  5. LoT still hasn't premiered yet.Isn't it a little early to call it a success?

    Vince Gilligan, that's a no-brainer.

  7. Shonda Rhimes and Ryan Murphy.
    Both loved and hated at the same time though.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I've got to say Julie Plec! hehehehe
    Honestly I think it's a tie between Shonda and Gred, with me pulling a bit to Shonda.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Honestly there's no doubt that it skyrocket to success, at least i hope so anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  10. David Beinoff and DB Weiss simply because they have created the biggest franchise by a country mile. Yes Shonda Rhimes has several shows which have been picked up but she wouldn't be enjoying the success she has without her deal with ABC. JJ Abrams has several series under his belt and should be on the list too.

  11. Shonda Rhimes and Dick Wolf

  12. Ratings wise then without a doubt Shonda Rhimes, though Chuck Lorre has had a lot of success.

    I mean they are all pretty successful.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Successful as in a lot of money: probably all of them, but I don't watch theirs shows.
    Successful as in I really enjoy his shows, please let him do his job as long as it's possible: Michael Hirst, Bryan Fuller, Charlie Brooker

    ReplyDelete
  14. I'd say it's between Shonda Rhimes and Dick Wolf. I'm not a huge fan of the Law and Order and Chicago fire/PD/Med franchise, but they are extremely successful.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I would say Shonda Rhimes but she is not the most liked producer.

    ReplyDelete
  16. What the hell people? How is berlwnti #2 when none of these shows have cracked a 2.0? I think Wolf is by far the most sucessful producer, with Shonda and Chuck close to each other in second and third.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I hope the same.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Though I greatly prefer Greg Berlanti (and his shows), TV seems to be all about Shondaland these days. FYI, I'm not hating. I do watch Scandal and How to Get Away With Murder.

    ReplyDelete
  19. As much as I enjoy most of Berlanti's shows, I have to go with Dick Wolf.

  20. Goodbye Revenge, ∞x∞June 28, 2015 at 2:29 PM

    Have to go with Shonda Rhimes because I like Scndal and HTGAWM. And she created Greys anatomy and even though I don't watch it, it's been on for what 13 seasons?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Shonda Rhimes

  22. Douglas from BrazilJune 28, 2015 at 3:00 PM

    Cannot be Shonda, It must be Greg the most popular.

    ReplyDelete
  23. GA was spectacular for 8 seasons IMO-That's really applause worthy.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Dick Wolf, without doubt. He's been at this for over 30 years.
    Miami Vice
    New York Undercover (A truly great underrated procedural)
    Law and Order franchise
    Chicago franchise
    Dragnet and a slew of other small shows.
    He also worked on Hill Street Blues.


    Most loved/respected for me is Joss Whedon

    ReplyDelete
  25. That is real amazing!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Ehm his Shows Are on the CW. No Show ever hits a 2.0 there. AT least Not now anymore

    ReplyDelete
  27. Get Betlanti will have 4 superhero shows, the Debra Messing show got a season 2. Granted it will be surprising if it makes it through another full season and I'm pretty sure he has another drama for the fall. So if success is measured by the number of shows on the air at any one time he wins by a mile over everyone else.

    ReplyDelete
  28. For me, it's Dick Wolf

  29. Goodbye Revenge, ∞x∞June 28, 2015 at 5:40 PM

    I agree! Going so long with good quality is hard to do.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I don't even particularly like her shows (except H2GAwM), but Shonda Rhimes is clearly the reigning queen of TV.

    ReplyDelete
  31. If we were talking long-term, I would definitely put Dick Wolf in the top and he's still doing great. Though I think just thinking currently, it has to go to Shonda. That woman could sell any show to a network, have it get picked up, promoted, and likely a success when others wouldn't even get a pitch meeting.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Not gonna vote for one option because I'd say the NCIS franchise and the DC universe on the CW.


    The poll says PRODUCT and some are mentioning people.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I like both shonda and greg berlanti shows But ive got to pick greg.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Chuck Lorre of course, he also has Mom by the way.

    ReplyDelete
  35. She's definitely the next Dick Wolf. She has more shows in a shorter span than he did, he just wins for longevity. She'll catch him no doubt.
    I didn't think your post was derogatory and while I may not agree with her thought process sometimes, she is very good at what she does. Hollywood loves her.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I guess it depends how you subjectivity successful. I'd go with Steven Moffat (Doctor Who and Sherlock being two of the biggest drama's on the BBC) and Greg Yaitanes/Jonathan Tropper whose work on Banshee is innovative and flawless.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Success isn't measured by a 2.0 ratings.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I'll go with Shonda Rhimes since her shows are completely independent.

    ReplyDelete
  39. We can agree to disagree. But I mean, Law & Order made it 20 seasons, SVU might reach thag feat as well, and the Chicago series just won't stop growing. He's still in demand 25 years later, with his newest show one of the most-anticipated of the season. He knows what people want, and he's 20 years above the highest age in the main demo. I highly doubt Berlanti will be making all these sucesses that far down the line.

    ReplyDelete
  40. He is only the creator of NCIS: LA and was the NCIS showrunner for like two years. He doesn't own the franchise.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I love GoT but D&D simply adapted asoiaf. The first 4 seasons followed the original story almost religiously. I hate to give them that much creative credit, sorry.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Jonathan Nolan, for Person of Interest's quality alone.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Kurt Sutter

    ReplyDelete
  44. You don't have to have a series run 7-10 years to be successful. GB has worked steadily on fan favorite shows for 16 years.
    Dawson's Creek/Everwood/Eli Stone/Brothers and Sisters/Flash/Arrow/Blindspot/Supergirl/Legends of Tomorrow/...he has his hands in all of those and more. That is success.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Gotta be a tie between Shonda Rhimes and Chuck Lorre. Longevity goes to Chuck Lorre and that longevity gives him a higher win to loss ratio. (though I haven't actually done the math.) But right now is definitely her time. Her network gave her a NIGHT. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  46. My vote goes to Shonda but my heart will still belong to Dick Wolf, he's got it for longevity!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  47. You're right. Dick Wolf has years on Chuck Lorre

    ReplyDelete
  48. JJ Abrahms/All the folks involved in LOST etc

    ReplyDelete
  49. Yeah Carlton Cuse since he not only had Lost he currently has Bates Motel and The Strain.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Dick Wolf and then Chuck Lorre. Shonda comes third.

    ReplyDelete
  51. It's not really about the ratings, but more about the shows and the longevity of them

    ReplyDelete
  52. only one them do I actually watch their stuff so im not voting. But with the direction the big bang theory and two and a half men(even before Charlie left) Id vote him down.

    ReplyDelete
  53. strange how the first time they deviate from the books majorly it mostly went wrong. But the books were less anyway in those parts anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  54. They are all pretty successful in their own right... I guess it does depend on what are the respective parameters that one would define success as.


    If it's regular network standards we're going by I'd say Shonda is probably the winner.
    (If this was 15-20 years ago Dick Wolf would probably be in the lead)
