The Creator of Doc McStuffins
What kind of person is drawn to write for children's television? And why does that person always seem to sneak in adult jokes and pop culture references? The creator and executive producer of Doc McStuffins, Chris Nee, shares the wide variety of experiences that led her to create the Peabody Award–winning show for Disney Junior. For the Spiel, it's time to name a new Lobstar of the antentwig.
