New Formerly Creative – Sean Conaway “Raising Hope”


The knock on members of the creative team is that they are all “Hollywood writers who don’t know wrestling.  Sean Conaway did it the reverse way.  A huge wrestling fan in college, Sean interned at the WWE Studios in the hopes that he could be on the WWE Creative team.  At age 21, he did.  But instead of becoming a “lifer”, Sean decided to move to Los Angeles and chase his Hollywood writing dream.  After six years, Sean has gotten his first script on the Fox TV Show – “Raising Hope” and that episode airs on 4/26 at 9:30pm on FOX.

This podcast is a discussion between Lagana and Conaway about Sean’s time in WWE and how it prepared him for Hollywood.  Hear the entire podcast here.

    Man, I LOVED My Name Is Earl. It was amazing. Unfortunately it was canceled, but you know, that’s how life goes on.

    About Mr. Sean, I did not know him. But he seemed like a legit great guy. Awesome to hear some of his stories.

    You know, nowadays, and I’m “speaking” from the other side of the world, almost, you have to go to school to be a somebody. I love to right and I’d love to make a living out of writting, but people don’t care about minds and ideas; they care about resumees and graduations. Screw the system.

    Keep up the amazing “campaign”, Mr. Lagana!

    Obviously, it’s “write” instead of “right”. I’m deeply sorry.
