It’s not like I needed another reason to put this incredible artist on a pedestal… but let’s throw this onto the pile…

I’m not one to horn-toot but I am so happy to have received my first Emmy nomination for this show and for these characters I love playing so dang much... and so very grateful to be sharing a category with my incredible friends.

I was convinced this would never happen.

I treasure this nomination.

Happy birthday to the late, great Garry K. Marshall, who decided it would be November 13 when Felix Unger was asked to remove himself from his place of residence (that request coming from from his wife) so that his kids would remember his birthday.

THAT’S an old-school showrunner flex for you.

Poking my head out to say happy birthday to Jim Henson. I never met him but I owe my career to him.

You can celebrate by ordering the brand new SAM AND FRIENDS SCRIPT BOOK from Bear Manor Media! It features 60 of Jim Henson’s scripts, lovingly annotated by my husby (and designed by my sister!).

I don’t love plugging for myself, but I enjoy plugging for others… although in this case I’m sort of plugging for me and the whole dang village that participated in the extras for this fantastic documentary…

My husby and I were honored to be included and had big fun recording our commentary track!
The GLTS doc is being released on Blu-ray by @kinolorber.com. You can pre-order it now. It has a record-breaking 55 audio commentaries and over 100 hours of bonus features. Please make this worth the last year of my life putting this insanity together.

Coming out of the woodwork for a hot sec to inform my SAG-AFTRA siblings:

I know it’s a time-sucking pain to double check & report discrepancies on your annual AFTRA Earnings Statement but PLEASE DO IT NOW.

More than 60 (!) of my 2024 stubs were missing, from multiple payroll companies and shows.

Turns out I’m still naive enough to believe that putting out consistently good work over a period of time would be something for which workers would be rewarded.

heads-up, kiddos:
WeTransfer just changed their TOS giving themselves permission to train AI on any content you transfer and produce derivative works based on content you transfer that they are allowed to monetize and you are not allowed payment for.

One of my proudest moments in life was swaying this entire panel to my way of thinking, and not just by weaponizing my love of Charles Grodin.
Or you can LISTEN to @stephaniedabruzzo.bsky.social & @doc-hammer.bsky.social debate THIS VERY IMPORTANT MUPPET TOPIC with @markgags.bsky.social & @hallublin.com on a very special episode of @wegotthispodcast.bsky.social RIGHT HERE:

Great thread on a great movie musical… which also happens to be the greatest Muppet movie of all time.

(you do not want to fight me on this, bucko)
On this date in 1981, THE GREAT MUPPET CAPER was released in theaters across the United States. Given the success of 1979's THE MUPPET MOVIE, a sequel was inevitable though getting there was a bit tricky, with script issues and some Muppet science problems to solve.

Dare I say it? Walk with me. /1

Mamdani Mayor, Lander Senator. Let’s go.
Brad Lander has arrived at his election night party. "The ranked choice tabulations will take a few days, but this much is clear: We are sending Andrew Cuomo back to the suburbs," Lander said to applause. "With our help, Zohran Mamdani will be the Democratic nominee"

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa.

It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;)

It's so New York.

Seconded!!
This is a good opportunity to plug something I am not involved in and just like, which is @thecity.nyc, a non-profit newsroom with a great (free) daily newsletter called The Scoop and an excellent weekly podcast FAQ NYC
