I think who you're talking about is Gavin Polone, one of the judges.
Polone is a producer who shepherded Gg to getting its greenlight on
the business side (basically, he's a moneyman and facilitator -- even
more removed from the creative process than Jerry Bruckheimer is). At
the time of Gg's creation, he was one half of a producing partner****p
called Hofflund-Polone. He's now head of his own company, Paraiah.
(He also sided with the studios during the strike and overall made an
ass of himself on one of the cable news channels' business show
dissing the WGA, BID.)
He also served in the same sort of role as a business-side producer
for Curb Your Enthusiasm.

LORELAI: I am so done with plans. I am never, ever making one again.
It never works. I spend the day obsessing over why it didn't work
and what I could've done differently. I'm analyzing all my shortcomings
when all I really need to be doing is vowing to never, ever make a plan
ever again, which I'm doing now, having once again been the innocent
victim of my own stupid plans. God, I need some coffee.
