Book Reviews of SCTV: Behind the Scenes
Book Review: I'm glad it's not a bunch of highlight stories.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a book more about how the SCTV concept came about and was executed, rather than a bunch of reflections about where the idea for this or that sketch came from.
While I'd like to hear these stories, I was refreshed with an insight into the details of producing a series and how they relate to Thomas' progression as an artist. Between the lines, there's much to be learned about the entertainment industry itself.
