#TheGorge on Apple TV+ is a blast. Stylish, scary, action-packed, and romantic. Meet-cute at the Hellmouth with sniper rifles and proximity mines. Extremely my jam. Thanks for the Valentine’s Day treat, @crobertcargill.bsky.social @scotderrickson.bsky.social Zach Dean and team

Please stop asking for various awards shows and programming to be cancelled. Those shows employ hundreds of workers who NEED the money right now. Those companies can afford to pay their workers AND donate a bucketful of cash. Don't cancel! Put on the show AND donate! It's good for everyone.

THAT SAID they were likely trying to do an alert for the Kenneth Fire that just broke out in West Hills so if you’re in the west Valley or the Ventura County line area, you need to take it seriously

Sounds like ALL OF LOS ANGELES just got a confusing evacuation warning alert… this has “someone didn’t input the right location codes” vibes, but man, what a time to fuck up your data entry

LA friends, if you’ve lost your home, I’m so sorry. In case it helps, here’s some stuff I wish I’d known:

It feels like a good time for a TV writing postsplosion. You know, the kind where I just talk at you about TV writing. Gonna talk about character.
And here goes. Your characters have to collide in ways that create conflict. What does that mean?
