Best resolution to a season-ending cliffhanger ever.

I had that dream! Even about it being Seattle! No plan, no flight, no hotel, and I was going to be there in like six hours. Things worked out okay in the dream so I'm sure you'll be good!

When you have that disorder where you don't reach out/text/message your dear friends because you're worried you're bugging them, and then one night one of them literally says "never leave me alone, I love every message more than you could ever know"...? That feels really nice. 🤗

SEA LIONS: "....yes. Sailboat. Right. NOT a slim sexy lady sea lion. We knew that. We love... sailing."

I have to say that Frankie was indeed a humble outsider who came in and nailed it.

Paget has done a lot of monologues, but this is true. I use "I can't ask any questions because all the questions I have right now are rhetorical and they end with the word idiot" ALL THE TIME these days. I even made it a gif.

I remember Snow White & The Huntsman because the sequel had Jessica Chastain, Charlize Theron, and Emily Blunt in the same movie and it was THAT...?! It was that. That's what movie they put those three in. I--

The best of days!

It's about a guy who accidentally gets blended with his long lost brother and becomes an entirely different person. Among other things.

An episode where one detective went to confront a priest who had molested children. When he came outside after, his partner was waiting for him.

"What if I'd killed him?"
"You wouldn't have."
"But what if I did?"
"It's not in your nature."
"But what if I DID...?"
"I brought a shovel."

That said, I'd really like to take a crack at the BOOMTOWN formula. Early 2000s NBC show, every episode was shown from the POV of the beat cops, detectives, lawyers, media, etc. Sometimes it took the entire episode to understand what was REALLY happening. 25x too smart for network television.

I tend to just file off the serial numbers and do an original version. Sanctuary, Amanda Tapping's follow-up to Stargate, became an explorer duo in the 1920s. Terriers, a private eye show, became novels about a lesbian werewolf detective (okay I filed off a LOT of what Terriers was to get there. 😄)

I think they were also considering it as a live-action show with Dan Castellaneta, but I don't know how serious that was.

I just recently learned this show grew from the idea of doing a Krusty the Klown spinoff that never got off the ground. When they got the opportunity to pitch something else, the writer dusted off the story and made a few tweaks.

Geonn missed the cut again! Good. They wouldn't DARE. ☺️

Fun fact, the Owens house from the first movie (not sure about the sequel) was built on the same island that 1) inspired me to get serious about writing and 2) inspired the setting of my first published novel. 😁 Maybe there really is magic there!

"It looks like someone stabbing himself in the stomach with a pencil, because that's exactly what trying to write that letter makes you want to fucking do."

"--how to write a cursive capital G, mostly because that is an impossble letter invented by someone who wanted to make children suffer."

Z is worse. I never had much issue with G, and I had to learn it quick. 😄

As annoying as it is that Spotify constantly shoves video podcasts at me (and it's QUITE annoying), I'm at least very fortunate I've cultivated an algorithm that gives me Amy Poehler instead of any Rogan Tate circlejerk shit.

See it with your EYES first, Reid.

And one time she "Love Actually"'d me. 😄

Repost with your first crush.

Animated and live action. Lucky enough to have not only worked with the live action one, we've become friends in real life. I had brunch with her last time I was in LA. 😁

Still haven't met Gadget. I think she left the industry.

"If ONLY we had a WH-HEEL BAHRROW!"

I did not know it was his birthday (and I'm going to guarantee my friend didn't, either) when she had her brainfart I posted about earlier. What a coincidence!

Novels 1-65, currently at 68 releases.

Every now and then I bring up the fact I had five (5) ideas when I started writing, all part of a series, and once I'd written them I had nothing else to offer. Couldn't fathom coming up with a SIXTH story I wanted to tell. Then I show this and reveal 4/5 of those original novels were never written.

My friend had a brain fart where she thought Westley in Princess Bride was played by Tim Curry. And far be it for me to mess with a perfect film, but now... I can't stop thinking about it.

I don't think people should watch The Comeback if they're already watching Hacks. I know Valerie Cherish came first (by a lot) but with both shows happening at the same time, she just comes off as a Looney Tunes version of Deborah. Sad and trying WAY too hard. Sorry, Lisa Kudrow.

Someone on... Reddit? Said she overheard someone at the airport describe something as "It's like mayo... but purple!" and the comments all decided she was talking about this stuff.

Oh man, this sounds amazing.

Personally, I like Bone. But also, yikes, hope you make it through the experiment.

The best kind!
