Darren Star Dishes on Cooking Up Iconic Television Shows, From Sex and the City, to 90210, to Melrose Place, plus his latest, Emily in Paris

Katie talks with Darren Star, creator and producer of zeitgeist-defining television series like Sex and The City, Beverly Hills, 90210, and Melrose Place, plus the international hit, Emily in Paris. Darren serves up some secrets of the new season of Emily in Paris, including filming in locations like Megève and Rome. He talks about the cast’s love of Paris, their favorite restaurants to visit while filming, and what catering is like on a French set (heavy on the desserts) vs. an Italian set (heavy on the pasta). Darren shares that his personal connection to food has helped to set the scene for his television series over the years. Whether it’s the Peach Pit in 90210 or one of the many NYC restaurants in Sex and the City, dining out gives the characters a time to come together. Plus, Darren shares his method for grilling the perfect steak, some of his favorite things to do in the Hamptons, and that time Candice Bushnell baked him Ina Garten’s chocolate cake for his birthday.
