Critical reception

The Guardian wrote "Most of all, the book leaves the image of the showrunner: the possibly unstable writer, in charge of every detail of a massive artistic-commercial enterprise."[5]

The Boston Globe said "But the point of “Difficult Men” is not merely to post images of our writer-producer heroes’ clay feet onto Instagram. It is, instead, to demonstrate the sheer ferocity required for producing great television."[6]

The Toronto Star said "Brett Martin’s Difficult Men tells the inside, behind-the-scenes story of this “Third Golden Age” of television, one that has seen the “open-ended, 12- or 13-episode [per season] serialized drama” become “the signature American art form of the first decade of the 21st century.”"[7]

The Christian Science Monitor wrote "What the book lacks in juicy Hollywood gossip it makes up in smart analysis and a comprehensive big-picture view of what makes shows precious in the best meaning of the word. In other words, not Northern Exposure-style "precious.""[8]
