EXCLUSIVE: Veteran showrunner Ken Sanzel has signed with UTA, where he will be represented by a team of agents in TV and film. He was most recently at WME. The former New York City cop, who was a member of the Decoy Squad in the NYC Transit Police Department, serves as executive producer/showrunner on CBS’ midseason drama The 2-2, executive produced by Robert De Niro. Before that, Sanzel spent several years as executive producer/showrunner on CBS’ long-running drama Numbers and did a brief stint at the helm of another CBS drama, Blue Bloods. Sanzel continues to be managed by Jeff Field of Field Entertainment and attorneys Bob Wallerstein and Ryan Nord.

Ken’s bullshit radar is no less than a mile wide. He calls it like it is..while sometimes it may sting, it’s to be commended in a business like ours. He sure knows how to manage BIG egos.
Much continued success and can’t wait for Rookies. Favorite pilot of last year.
Is there really a reason for ken to be so unhappy all the time? He is peddling the same crap features and writing the same hack episodes of cbs crap as he always has. which agency hasn’t he been at? Icm, gersh, paradigm, caa, endevor. Boring
Agree with whatever. This dude will be somewhere new in a year. Anfry and out od shape. Plus Guy is getting close to 3 bills.
Oh Ari er i mean “whatever”, no reason to instruct your wme “plants” to make negative comments (sorry Ari, was on the call you made to Christian a few days ago) . Bottom line is that you did not do a good job for Ken and he left. Happens all the time. Hopefully UTA will do a better job for him or else he will leave them. Ken is a very good writer/showrunner and this is a great sign for UTA. Next…..
