Also, I spoke to Rachel today, she's really excited about Alias. I told her to be nice to Jeff Bell.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It was an audio interview, and I don't remember where I found it, Strega.
But I'll look.
I guess I figured if you're picking 1001 people in the world to do stuff -- I'm effectively equivalently likely be bitten by a radioactive spider and gain powers. You pick 1001 LA experts, and my phone won't ring. Never mind the US.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Huh. You're alive. Cool.

Quick! Everyone! Go pitch a comedy to NBC.
I'm pretty sure that, based on my Situation: Comedy viewing, funny is optional.

I actually met with NBC this morning, oddly.

How'd that go?
More importantly, what did you wear?

My favourite idea I've heard recently for a sitcom is one where a straight guy inherits his uncle's gay bar, and he's not allowed to sell it.
Quick! Someone write the pilot and precis, and don't forget to give character bios and your plans for making it to episode #100. Also include the style in which the sitcom is to be filmed.
Then give me a %age.

Did you pitch a comedy? Because I'm pretty sure they'd be promoing your new series right now, if you did.

Went fine. And pearls.

I didn't pitch. It was about them explaining to me why I want to bring my next two things to them and not, um, someplace else. I had the eggs benedict.
