Ethan Reiff and Cyrus Voris have been partners as writers and executive producers for many years; they have been writing together since 1987. Though they never met there, Reiff and Voris both attended NYU. They met at a graduation party thrown by a mutual friend, where they learned each was completing feature-length screenplays. They agreed to meet again and swap finished scripts, which they did at a Mets-Reds game, leading to their long-term collaboration from their base in Los Angeles.

Reviewers score the dialogue 53/100 and the plot and story 42/100 in their films, across 10 reviewed titles. The element that speaks to their work as a writer.
Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
