On the "Atlanta" Writers' Room

"Atlanta" is unlike any series we've ever seen on TV, and the show's writers are fully aware that some of the ideas they conjure up are incredibly outrageous. Robinson struggles to sum up her time in "Atlanta"'s eccentric writers' room but finally settles on one phrase: "It's an experience." "It's unlike any writers' room I think I've ever been in, and probably will be in," she adds. "It's very much like a family . . . There's lots of arguments, laughter, discussing, talking, and meeting together. It's really therapeutic, I feel like in some ways, too. It's a very vulnerable writers' room where we do talk a lot about what's going on in our heads and our experiences, and we're not afraid to disagree with one another."

Additionally, Robinson shares that, oftentimes, "Atlanta"'s team of writers spend their time "sharing funny videos we see on the internet and trying to crack each other up" — a noticeable trademark in many of the show's episodes. "It's a very specific experience that I feel like has probably felt more like family than any other job I've had," she remarks.
