Education

Raised in Syracuse, New York,[1] Royce graduated from Jamesville-Dewitt High School in 1982,[2] then went on to film school at Ithaca College where he graduated in 1986.[3]

Career

From 1986 to 1999, Royce was a stand-up comedian in New York City. For several years, he was also a warmup comedian for such shows as The Maury Povich Show, Viva Variety, and Spin City.[1] In 1997, he got his first job as a writer on MTV's Apartment 2F, which starred Randy and Jason Sklar.[1] In 1999, Royce joined the writing staff of Everybody Loves Raymond, where he eventually worked his way up to the position of executive producer for the last two seasons.[1][4] In 2005, Louis C.K. asked Royce to be the executive producer and show runner of a new sitcom, HBO's Lucky Louie.[1]

In 2008, TNT ordered a pilot for a new series written by Royce and Ray Romano.[5] By January 2009, TNT had ordered 10 episodes for the new series Men of a Certain Age, which premiered on Monday December 7, 2009 at 10:00.[6] TNT picked up Men of a Certain Age for a second season as the ratings have increased with men in the age demographic of 25 to 54.[7] On July 15, 2011, TNT cancelled the series after two seasons.

In 2011, Mike Royce and his Snowpants Productions company signed a deal with 20th Century Fox Television.[8] In addition to two pilots, he produced two series under his Fox deal, 1600 Penn[9] and Enlisted.[10]

In 2015, he moved to Sony Pictures in an overall deal and developed a pilot for CBS, as well as the reimagining of Norman Lear's '70s sitcom "One Day at a Time" for Netflix [11]

In 2017, One Day at a Time premiered on Netflix starring Justina Machado and Rita Moreno. A reimagining of the 1975 Norman Lear sitcom, Royce co-created the 2017 version with Gloria Calderon Kellett. He is executive producer and co-showrunner of the series, alongside Ms. Kellett.

Awards and nominations

Royce was nominated for an Emmy Award in 2003 for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, for the Everybody Loves Raymond episode "Counseling". He and the other Raymond writers and producers won the Emmy for Best Comedy twice, in 2003, and 2005.[citation needed]
