I write, direct, produce, spouse, father and game. Sci-fi is my jam. WGA, DGA, The Pad O’ Guys. Latest project: “If-Then." (Banner artwork from unproduced screenplay "Perpetual.")
Thanks for the repost, Brian, otherwise I wouldn’t have known it was back on Tubi. My first written episode of TV, with guest star George Lazenby. Also see Brad Pitt, Mariska Hargitay, and many more…

And they changed the thumbnail to feature the fact that my first TV episode starred…. James Bond.

OMG, for the past four or five years I thought it (the one side dead issue) was just US. With three separate pods this has happened.

We already pay for it with something called the California Wildfire fund which covers any claims against the power companies beyond the first $1 billion. That fund may get wiped out this year and we'll pay more:

Monarch, Invasion, whatever the hell that new Vince Gillian show is….

Also, the bundle is dirt cheap when you share it with a family of four. I get that $40 for one person would be rough.

Ours is buried in the Apple One bundle, but I could never let it go since A+ is the SyFy Channel with budgets. I loves me some big dumb sci-fi (Foundation, For All Mankind, Severance, etc….)

I read that early “advertising satire” version from the library back at USC. It was not good! My gang still quotes some of the cheesier lines — pots calling kettles black, of course. Remember when Albert Finney was an action star? Looker and Wolfen! This is frequently $5 in the Apple Store.

Best final scene of any show -- even better than Six Feet Under.

That's so cool and great for NY. It's sad that LA has become so unused as a location. Back in the day you'd stumble across rows of parked trucks everywhere. Now, not so much. Maybe the higher tax credits will help.

Sadly, it is worse.

Way, way too many games. If it's an open world game, I want to play in it -- even though they are the longest. I live in Ubisoft's worlds (also Red Dead's and Cyberpunk's and Death Stranding's now that it's on Xbox). I started with Zork. I had a game writing agent for about a minute.

“Fired” is the wrong word, of course. Most features get re-written. You still get a sad phone call that you’re not involved anymore. They hired Dice and figured they needed a new hit comedy writer so they got the writer of Heathers. He also rewrote my roommate’s Demolition Man script.
