Honored I managed to get one line in this article full of comedy geniuses. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-featur...

They hired Rhys Thomas of Documentary Now! to direct the pilot and kept to a two-camera setup. “You have to imagine that Arthur’s camera crew was there, and they didn’t get any pickups or do any second takes,” says editor Kyle Gilman. “So it was important that the camera operators didn’t anticipate what was going to happen next — Bobby Moynihan needs to come into the room, and then there’s a quick pan over, and the camera finds him halfway through his line, which is of course against the instincts of almost everyone on set.”

Slow clap for The Trial of Burt Macklin!

"it’s a minor point in the scheme of things, but when trying to sell Pratt as a weary alcoholic cop credibly accused of murdering his wife, it’s probably a miscalculation to include Jay Jackson—literally the actor who played Perd Hapley on Parks And Recreation—as the fake news anchor of choice, nudging the movie ever-so-slightly closer to becoming The Trial Of Burt Macklin."

The NY Times is right. You should check out The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, the title is currently correct in the article, but I love that this correction still gets the title wrong. @stmeans.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/01/01/a...

From the Team That Brought You ‘30 Rock’
This year is the 20th anniversary of the premiere of “30 Rock,” one of the greatest sitcoms of the century and one that rewards repeated viewings. For those looking for something new in its style, the upcoming NBC sitcom “The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins” sounds awfully promising. Tracy Morgan stars as a disgraced former football star (some echoes of “Chad Powers” here) and Daniel Radcliffe is a filmmaker trying to help him improve his image. Much of the “30 Rock” creative team is back at the helm: Tina Fey is an executive producer, while Robert Carlock returns as showrunner, sharing the duties with the “30 Rock” writer Sam Means.

A correction was made on Jan. 1, 2026: An earlier version of this article misstated the title of an upcoming sitcom. It is “The Rise and Fall of Reggie Dinkins,” not “The Rise and Fall of Reggie Dinklage.”

It has come up, but it seems like it deserves its own article. Maybe including the reason he is no longer a New York Times reporter. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...

As Mr. Trump’s presidential campaign gained traction in December 2015, Mr. Epstein asked Landon Thomas Jr., then a New York Times reporter, “would you like photso of donald and girls in bikinis in my kitchen”?

It is unclear whether Mr. Epstein actually possessed such photos. Mr. Thomas, who has not worked at The Times since 2019, said Mr. Epstein never provided them. Mr. Epstein also told him about a time when he said Mr. Trump was “so focused” on watching young women in a swimming pool that he bumped into a door, “leaving his nose print on the glass.”

A handwritten note added to the end of the Frankenstein book:

As he drifted away I could just make out his final words.

"It's okay if you call me 'Frankenstein' instead of 'Frankenstein's Monster.'
I really don't mind."

We need to start a movement that insists on skipping shows entirely if the first episode starts with something exciting and confusing and then jumps back in time to explain how we ended up in this situation. The networks are going to keep insisting on it until viewers make them stop.
