Biography
S5E6 - (Flashforward) At the Testi-Roastial of Susie in 1990, Stewart recounts the tale of Susie’s legendary “triple crown,” in which she got greenlights for three big projects all in a single day at the golf course in 1970. The day began when Susie was golfing with Tommy and Sol and attempted to sell them on The French Connection. Sol was extremely skeptical, and Tommy was outright hostile towards the idea. However, Susie managed to get Sol on his own for a moment, and she told him something (nobody knows what) which made him change his tune and instantly greenlight the film, ignoring Tommy’s furious protests. She then made her way over to Cameron, who had just taken over programming at CBS, and sold him on That’s Our Time, the premise and cast of which she made up completely from scratch on the spot. Tommy and Sol followed her and watched her conversation with Cameron, flabbergasted.
