It’s as hard to break out of that talented crowd as it is for a series to break out in the crowded, peak- TV landscape—but several creators at this year’s T. C. A. Keep an eye on these six as they continue to rise. Reed Morano: Director/Executive Producer, The Handmaid’s Tale. Left, by Michael Loccisano/Getty Images; right, courtesy of Hulu. As a cinematographer, Morano already made a memorable mark in 2.

V., Morano is no first- time director. But in directing the first three episodes of Hulu’s ambitious adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s. Green Inferno (2015) Movie Theatre here. The Handmaid’s Tale, Morano has also landed her first executive- producer credit, and the opportunity to translate a classic novel’s iconography into a visually stunning new series. She cites Kubrickian symmetry as one of her main influences, and isn’t afraid to shove her camera right up under her star Elisabeth Moss’s distinctive headgear.

Moss, meanwhile, joked that it felt like the camera was sometimes strapped right onto her face. The power of the show’s prestigious cast (Meadowland alum Moss, Alexis Bledel, Joseph Fiennes, Ann Dowd, Samira Wiley, and more) combined with the political resonance of Atwood’s story was sure to help The Handmaid’s Tale emerge as a series to watch in 2.

But it’s Morano’s visual style that might keep viewers coming back for more. Watch Full Monster Trucks (2017) 2002. Though she confesses she’s not sure what her executive- producer credit means, she was instrumental in shaping the distinct look of a series Hulu hopes will run long beyond the boundaries of Atwood’s novel. But if my gender were to give me a chance to get in the room to prove that I’m the best for the job, that’s great. I think we do need that shot sometimes, because you’re not going to be the obvious person to look for a big action movie, or a Bond movie, or whatever it is. If a woman can get a shot at pitching herself in a room, then she has the chance.” And with The Handmaid’s Tale as a calling card, Morano is likely to get even more chances going forward.

I was actually also supposed to direct an episode of Showtime’s I’m Dying Up Here. The writing is incredible on both shows. I’m so excited to watch them when they come out.”Desus Nice and Kid Mero: Stars, Desus and Mero. By Michael Kovac/Getty Images. One thing T. C. A. Sorry, I’m not used to coming out onstage without applause,” diva Idina Menzel said, only half- joking, as she took the stage to talk about her Lifetime movie Beaches.“We were told it was a very cold room and that they don’t laugh,” Viceland star and comedian Desus Nice says of his first time at the event.

But what the comedy duo found, instead, was a room of critics immediately captivated by their charisma, political acumen, and fearless approach to late- night comedy. As hard as the network and other cable late- night shows work to stay relevant (Samantha Bee’s staff joked at the T. C. A. s that their workload was taking a serious toll on their health), Desus & Mero operates without a writing room. That makes the show a little shaggier than most but, as Nice points out, “They might get to something on Thursday that we got to on Tuesday.” In the Internet age of instant reactions, that turnaround time may be key.

Kid Mero pushed back a little on calling their show too informal. But the flexibility of a network like Viceland means Desus and Mero don’t have to even commit to regimented seasons of their show. But as the only late- night hosts of color outside *The Daily Show’*s Trevor Noah (who is South African), the comedy duo from the Bronx—who refused from day one to pull punches when it comes to Donald Trump—hope they can offer a vital perspective. We told you all along these were voices you needed to listen to, and you were ignoring it for a long time. And now you can’t ignore it,” Mero says.

Says Desus: “2. 4: Legacy reboot with the dude from Straight Outta Compton . That’s going to be interesting, because the original 2. Muslims in a bad light.

It was a show that could only exist at that time. I want to see how they pull it off now, because the original was very problematic.” Says Mero: “I want to see if they think they can get away with certain things because the lead is black. That will be very interesting.”Roberto Aguirre- Sacasa: Show- Runner, Riverdale. Left, by David Buchan/Variety/REX/Shutterstock; right, courtesy of The CWRoberto Aguirre- Sacasa is already a well- known name in the world of Archie comics; he’s the guy who brought zombies (yes, zombies) to the idyllic Riverdale High School by writing the popular 2.

Afterlife with Archie.” The success of that run landed Aguirre- Sacasa the role of chief creative officer of the 7. Archie Comic Publications Inc., and put him squarely behind the massive, modern relaunch of the series that was met first with skeptical eyebrows—and then rave reviews and booming sales. Now Aguirre- Sacasa is combining his television experience (he’s written on Big Love, Glee, Looking, and Supergirl) with his love of Archie to potentially launch a Marvel- esque takeover, starting with the CW’s dark teen soap Riverdale. When asked if his ambitions matched those of Marvel power player Kevin Feige, Aguirre- Sacasa didn’t flinch a bit. Citing an upcoming Archie stage musical from Will Ferrell and Adam Mc.

Kay, as well as dreams of animated feature films and live- action TV spin- offs starring characters like Josie (of Pussycats fame) and Sabrina (that famous teenage witch), it’s clear that Aguirre- Sacasa has already envisioned a full- fledged Archie invasion. Riverdale is the mothership, and then Josie has a 1. Sabrina a 1. 3- episode order. That’s my dream.” Laughing a little at the scope of his own ambition, he adds, “But let’s make it to premiere week first.”A lifelong Archie fan, Aguirre- Sacasa is intimately involved in every detail of Riverdale. Always eager to “go deeper” and “dimensionalize” the bubblegum world of Archie, Aguirre- Sacasa will unblushingly compare shots of Betty and Veronica to murky properties like L.

But what even the most disengaged TV viewer will recognize is the moment a channel that wasn’t previously on their radar suddenly becomes a must- watch. This may soon become the case with Nat Geo—as in National Geographic—a channel that is invested in becoming much more than nature programming.

Hot on the heels of successful scripted films like Killing Reagan, Nat Geo’s C. E. O. Monroe says it’s not about re- branding the National Geographic name that has graced the cover of so many educational magazines, but expanding into “bigger, bolder, and more entertaining” territory. Monroe will follow suit with even more scripted series, like Long Road Home based on Martha Raddatz’s Iraq War best- seller and David France’s 2. How to Survive a Plague, about the AIDS epidemic, in partnership with Scott Rudin. But for all the moves that Monroe is making on prestige territory previously dominated by the likes of HBO, she’s still ensuring that her network will maintain its commitment to non- scripted programming.

In conjunction with the magazine’s groundbreaking issue about gender, Nat Geo is debuting the hot- button documentary Gender Revolution: A Journey with Katie Couric this February.
