“We spoke to many amazing experts from every vector of healthcare,” Wyle said to Steve Pond in TheWrap’s cover story last August. “And we’d finish those interviews by saying, ‘What would you like to see on TV? What isn’t on TV that should be? And what would be bad and counterproductive for us to put on TV?’”
Previous honorees of the Television Showperson of the Year Award include Kathy Bates, Patrick Stewart, Norman Lear, Quinta Brunson, Shonda Rhimes and Bob Hope.
