No Reel Genius

Thank you for your enlightening article on Hollywood “genius” Matt Williams (“He’s Got the Juice,” by Hilary de Vries, May 23).
With Roseanne Barr and Tim Allen, Williams took two comedians with already established personas and handed them obligatory sitcom families. For Carol Burnett, his revolutionary concept was to create a pseudo-variety show.
How astonishing that with a minimal amount of imagination and creativity, Williams is being paid millions.
Come to think of it, maybe that’s his genius.
