Shana Goldberg-Meehan is what is wrong with Hollywood. Her dad was "David Garry Goldberg" who created the Reagan Era Hit "Family Ties". So she never had to "Work her way up in Hollywood". Because her career was handed to her she was able to land great jobs that should have gone somebody else more talented.
SHe was given way too much credit for "Friends". All of her scripts were rumored to have been re-written by the real writers. When the show "Friends" came to an end the main creators of the show had nothing to do with "Joey". Shana Goldberg-Meehan help create the show and it was a creative and ratings disaster. Shana Goldberg- Meehan lack of talent help sink the show, Not only did she create it she was also the show runner.
Joey was a pointless spin-off and its characters had no depth. It lacked a main focus and the shows ratings were sinking every week. NBC gave this show a 2 year commitment. So Shana Goldberg-Meehan was replaced for the 2nd Season but the show was more focused but still just as average as any "Caroline in the City" episode.
Shana Goldberg-Meehan went on to create the ABC show "Better WIth You" and Shana Goldberg-Meehan created another loser. A show with bad lines and poorly developed characters.
She now is a creative consultant on "Speechless" and lets hope she is kept out of the writers room.
