RIP Joe Flaherty, comedy god. That day in the studio recording him is still one of the funniest, weirdest things I've ever witnessed. Here's what I wrote about it back then:.

This is so sad. Mark and I developed a movie together at Laika. So talented, so clever, so dry, so passionate, always pushing for every moment to be more surprising. He leaves a legacy of brilliant stop-motion, from Fantastic Mr Fox, to the California Raisins, to Pinocchio.

This feels like an @adityasood move if I ever saw one. And a good fit for @philiplord and @chrizmillr because it’s so got many characters and worlds it’s practically un-filmable. Aka their specialty.

Best episode yet. One of my favorite podcasts, one of my favorite comedians, one of my favorite jokes. Gets deep in hour two. Thanks, Jesse!.
I'm happy to talk about recent jokes with guests, because that's where they are at the time, but there is something special when we get to really dive into a classic. PFT's Peanut Brittle is one of the great bits of the 21st century. It deserves to be discussed at length!.

I had the honor of working with Paul Reubens, one of my heroes. When he agreed to voice Golly Gopher in Re-Animated, he brought a slightly unhinged edge to the role. The network was hesitant. We drove him crazy in the booth finding the right balance. What a legend #RIPpaulreubens.
Paul Reubens, the actor best known for portraying Pee-wee Herman, died Sunday night after a private bout of cancer. He was 70.

Sad to hear about the @cartoonnetwork building closing. Many great years there learning how to be a better writer and better person, but mostly being an idiot. From Johnny Bravo, Foster's, Juniper, Gym Partner, shorts, pilots, to my glorious flameout on Re-Animated/OOJH! #RIPCNS

RT @adamconover: I'm incredibly proud of how transparent our union is. In the @WGAWest's strike announcement, we included a list of our pro….

This second proposal wouldn't cost them a dime, yet they rejected it. Why? Because the current system of holding our second payment hostage gives them unlimited free rewrites.

Every writers’ room in town just lost an hour of work to this journalistic masterpiece.
“Who Jackie?” has been retold for 28 years — much to the surprise of the Roseanne writer who said it. Here, an unraveling of the greatest writers' room story ever. @JoeBerkowitz reports

Yesterday, I got producer notes on a script, and my son puked all over me while we were at the playground. A few years ago, either one of those would've ruined my day. Now, it's like, shrug, clean it up, move on.

MAYBE we mean it. #WGAstrong.
WGA members have authorized a strike by 97.85%. Writers are ready for a deal from the studios that allows writers to share in the success of the content they create and build a stable life. #WGAStrong

I voted YES on the WGA strike authorization vote because union solidarity gives us leverage. Leverage to strike a deal. #WGAstrong
