Keeping it Real

From We TV to TLC and Bravo to HGTV, Angela Molloy takes our favorite unscripted series from concept to binge-worthy

For two decades, Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences alumna Angela Molloy has brought new friends, home makeovers, multimillion-dollar real estate deals, therapy sessions and celebrities’ day-to-day lives into our homes.

Now as vice president for development and head of West Coast development at We TV, she hears pitches from production companies, agents, managers and talent and oversees pilots, presentations and casting for possible new shows, while also balancing her duties as executive producer for “Marriage Boot Camp,” “Bridezillas” and “Mama June: Road to Redemption.”

Angela, who graduated in 1997 with a degrees in professional writing and French and a minor in film studies, has been a producer for Reelz’ “Mansion Matchmakers,” Bravo’s “Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles,” OWN’s “Life with La Toya,” HGTV’s “Room Crashers” and others.

In the industry, she’s a triple threat as a network executive for 10 years at two different networks, a producer in the field and an entertainment professional who has sold shows to VH1, Fox, NBC, TV Land, Bravo, GSN and OWN.
