One and the same. The dude has won more Emmy awards for writing than Joss has, plus a whole bunch of WGA awards.
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

I love seeing his name on stuff and am unduly proud about his awards

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal
He did a great job. Michael Keaton deserved his award, too. (Not that I thought he wouldn't, but he absolutely played a part where I never thought about his wackier personas once, which is pretty amazing, given that I grew up during Peak Wacky Michael Keaton and tend to think of him as, idk, Better Jim Belushi or something.) I'm surprised I could watch a film about that investigation twice--Netflix had one, too, with Matthew Broderick playing the Sackler part and Crazy Eyes from Orange Is The New Black as the female investigator--I thought they were good, but that the Hulu version might be better overall. Not quite Jonathan taking over the world, but close, adaptation-wise.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

He also wrote the book for the latest version of Chess.
Malcolm was enjoyable. Scrubs is enjoyable. If you're going to reboot, boot thusly.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal
I like "Beef", even though it's well-made but not especially happy-making(Lots of couples fighting and petty revenge,an attempt perhaps at writing Greek tragedy, American-style maybe) Maybe capitalism is the true antagonist, with which I'm down--the no-longer-poncy bugger owes me many quid, after all, and yet? Two seasons...right in a row, though is too much Beef--it is Hank Hill's overstuffed colon, too much Beef. I liked "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" too, but it would have been insane to give it one of those TV versions, even the ones that only lasted for a year.

That which does not kill you should RUN
I got spoiled for it on purpose, and I really don't want to watch it based on what I've read.

I think I do intend to watch it but I haven't yet. Kind of surprised that I haven't heard anything at all. Haven't been looking hard, but I didn't expect to have to look.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I loved the ending but it was a tough 90 minutes getting there. I think if you wanted you could just watch the last...15 minutes, probably? And not feel like you'd missed much?
