'Potential'
[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.
Kristen's information is solid. The WGA puts out a little booklet called "From freelance to showrunner: writing for episodic TV." It's got all that solid information it. I'd link, but I not know how.
Also, someone not named me needs to do research into the last time Tim made an appearance 'round these here parts.

However, I could be totally misunderstanding, and maybe they don't call people jackasses as much as I think.
or as much as they should. If more producers called more people jackasses to their face, maybe less TV would suck.
If msbelle were a producer she'd call people jackholes.
If I remember right, when Jeff Bell got an Executive Producer credit on Angel, he explained that "Executive" means "Not The." I liked that.
It was when he got the co-executive producer credit in season 4. He explained co meant not the. He got the credit after being made day to day showrunner, so was actually being a little modest.
Think with writers the producer credit incarnations are what they make of them. Jane Espensen said the only difference in being co-producer (season 4) was that she now sat in on casting sessions characters in her episodes. Whilst Tim did most of the rewrites after being upped to supervising producer (half way through s1).

ha.

cause she does that already.
Thank you, Kristen, that was wonderful.
I dunno why I think Brokeback stuff goes here (mainly because I know Allyson will see it if I post it here)....but the parody trailers have been killing me. The latest one on Defamer is a great Brokeback to the Future. Makes me laugh.
Kristen, on NPR, they were talking about peanut allergies, about how a teen girl had such terrible allergies that she went into anaphylactic shock after kissing her boyfriend who had eaten a peanut butter sandwich earlier in the day. That felt like an awesome weird death that I thought you might appreciate.
One of the bad things about peanut (and probably other) allergies is that they're somewhat unpredictable. My niece has a peanut allergy. It's severe, and the same thing could happen to her. But last year she ate a peanut butter cookie with no ill effects. Weird, huh.
