Writers Give Back

Did you all know about this? I didn't.

WRITERS GIVE BACK empowers writers and others in the creative community to use their free time in a constructive way. Many of the members of the WGA (and outside of it) have expressed a desire to donate their time and energy, to "give back,” but don't know where to start.

WRITERS GIVE BACK establishes a permanent network of progressive individuals, philanthropists, advertisers, and charitable organizations

Get your daily Dollhouse fix

TV.com has a one-minute scene from Dollhouse posted. Not nearly as exciting as Fox's Upfronts trailer, but I still can't wait to see this show.

It will be even cooler when I am staffed on this show. Which will be, like, any minute now, obviously.

Now stop bothering me, I'm supposed to be working on my Pushing Daisies outline. Sheesh.

Scrubs carries on

I don't know about you, but I was pretty shocked when I saw the Scrubs "series finale". It was bad. Really really bad. Which made me sad, because I used to love Scrubs and have kept watching even though the last couple of seasons have been totally sucky. 

So, this article in which Bill Lawrence explains the network's involvement in ruining a great show (which has also earned a LOT of money) makes a pretty interesting read.

It's kinda scary how much power certain execs have over the shows we love. And even scarier to think you could have created one of the biggest earning sitcoms of the decade, and still get no respect from your bosses.

Let's hope the next 18 episodes really do hearken back to earlier days, when Scrubs was good.
