Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Curious. Steve didn't turn up for The Office according to James Gunn's blog, so without their lead I think B.J. is pretty clear to not show.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I've only ever walked through an informational picket, but that was plenty uncomfortable!

I once got permission from a strike supervisor to enter a supermarket, because I'd already been to three places and it was the only place around that had what I needed. The woman was very nice about it, actually, and was pleased that I asked.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Mine was colleagues who clearly had no problem with my going to work, but it just felt off.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I wondered how it worked when writers had other roles. I guess they have to ditch everything? That doesn't seem right! They're not writing! Just act! Say the words you already wrote!

Tina Fey (writer and actor) is picketing. So, they really can't move forward, cause in order to write her character out of an episode, they'd need . . . a writer.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

"It's a fascinating position these showrunners are put into," another studio exec said. "From a pure economics standpoint, if they can provide extra scripts, that's extra fees for a lot of people who need the money. On the other hand, the more episodes we have, supposedly the less pressure there will be on us. But I would think if I were a writer, I'd get as many scripts into shooting position as possible."

I'm sure you would, Mr. Studio Exec. You know, if you were a writer @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Daniels Pickets ‘Office’ Production:

“We’re trying to shut down ‘The Office,’” Mr. Daniels said. “We have the star of our show and the entire writing staff behind us.”

A bold move!

Mr. Daniels said there’s only one unproduced “Office” script that’s ready to go, but it’s a good one.

“Last week we had our best table reading of the entire run of the show, and that’s what we were going to shoot this week,” he said.

The best ever? Really? Whaaaat a coincidence!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Wrong season but I can never resist the urge to shout

As God is my witness I thought turkeys could fly!

I was wrong, it is season 1! (episode 7)

Shawn Ryan says the Shield series finale that he won't be able to work on is the best script the writers have ever produced. I find it highly suspect that the BEST STUFF IN THE WORLD is happening riiiiight before the strike. Hee.
