TRANSCRIPT Bullseye with Jesse Thorn: Shonda Rhimes

Shonda Rhimes is one of the most accomplished TV writers and producers of our time. She’s written shows like Scandal, Private Practice, How To Get Away With Murder, and Bridgerton. And of course, Grey’s Anatomy, one of the longest-running primetime TV shows ever. Her newest project is Queen Charlotte – it’s a spinoff of the Bridgerton series, which was produced by Rhimes and her company Shondaland. Like Bridgerton, Queen Charlotte is a period drama series set in the Regency Era. But instead of the Bridgerton family, the show focuses on the queen herself, and her rise to power. She discusses this and more with our correspondent, journalist Jarrett Hill.
