Conan O’Brien growing a “strike” beard
This is a pretty hilarious little video by Conan O’Brien, the host of the Late Night show who is showing solidarity with the writers by not continuing to produce his show (unlike Carson Daly) and paying his staff to keep them employed during it. He’s also growing a beard, as I guess a number of [...] Continue →
The Friday Question – 11/30/07
It’s Friday again, so it’s time for a question to make you think, scratch your heads and ponder your own existence. Or none of that stuff, but let’s have some fun anyways! It’s almost the weekend and it’s raining out, what could be better? Heroes left us with a juicy little preview for Monday’s upcoming [...] Continue →
WGA/AMTPT negotiations update
The negotiations between the WGA and AMTPT had their media blackout lifted today, so official press releases were distributed to the media from both sides.

NoFollow link train contest
I’ve been pretty heavy into promoting this blog lately, jumping on the Blogging Zoom bangwagon, ShowHype.com, Mixx.com, etc. What’s come of it?

Fans get NBC to air Journeyman’s 12th episode
So some big news coming from Ain’t it Cool News (AICN) today, which I found thanks to Real Honest Films. Apparently the 12th episode of Journeyman wasn’t going to be aired by NBC, but they’ve changed their minds thanks to all the fans out there. A website called SaveJourneyman.net has helped inspire NBC to air [...] Continue →
Firefly fans: “Serenity Found: Unauthorized Essays”
I’m a huge Firefly fan and cried the day it was canceled. It’s part of the reason why many of us hate TV Networks and are dreading the day that some idiot at NBC decides Journeyman isn’t worth keeping. Firefly was on FOX and I’ve held a special distain in my heart for those guys [...] Continue →
End the strike, Sopranos style
The writers of the Late Show with David Letterman have been pretty bored with nothing to do but strike and eat pizza, so they put up a website LateShowWritersOnStrike.com and are making all kinds of YouTube videos to put on it, plus other content. Anyways, here is the one I liked the most…a message from [...] Continue →

She writes: “Tuesday was the day [...] Continue →
