Love them or hate them, chances are that you’ve watched at least
one Darren Star series. Kara once called them the “hottest trash on
TV” but for over 30 years she has devoured shows that Star has
created and executive produced, including “Sex and the City,”
“Beverly Hills 90210” “Melrose Place,” “Uncoupled” and — most
recently — the Netflix hit “Emily in Paris.” In this conversation,
Kara and Darren discuss how HBO paved the way for risqué
television, how streaming has eclipsed network televisions and how
Star got inside the mind of the straight girl. Before the
interview, Nayeema and Kara discuss why TV — trash or not — is
being recycled into nostalgia programming. And they dive into the
dark days media is facing right now after layoffs at CNN, hiring
freezes around the news industry and shutterings of small media
outlets pave the way for a “bad winter.” You can find
