(1 of 4:) A corporation is NOT a person. It is NOT a human being, even if our legal system recognizes it as such. It is a profit-seeking collective, an inhuman conglomerate which eats numbers and shits misery. We, the members of the WGA, are the human beings in this conflict.

I'm not sorry to say I love this show, its cast, its story, and its message. Destiny demands that my compatriots and I now seek a new home for this series.
Fifteen seasons does a genre continent make, one which will be explored as were it a living thing for some time to come. Gratified to be part of this phenomenon and the wide wonderful family it fostered :)

There’s much to be said regarding Destiel. I entertain its possibility but am not absolute; it lives on the periphery of the story I was involved in telling — I cannot speak for show past season 8. but I appreciate the intensity of the feelings here and wish to show only respect
Meanwhile thank u from my heart's bottom to all the fans who've shared their love with us and the show. Thank you sweet

for your militant affection :) We want to find a place to make more. That is the mission now and we are on it.
After much door-knocking we have found no new home for the Tick series in this current market.

I'm sorry we could not reward your glorious support with better news. I am so proud of the show, of the cast and crew and writers, and so warmed by the fans

Hey
#SPNFamily
there will be a gathering of cast and crew on Thursday to support the WGA and SAG in their battle against the AMPTP (I will be there for example) — COME JOIN US !!!
Please continue to choose love and hope for good things. And I think we might as well accept it as a law of the universe: when the time is right

Hey thx fer all kind words from

-- the character of Castiel (and Misha's portrayal thereof) formed one of the most interesting creatures I've had the pleasure of working with :)
Hey folks — today at SPN picket I will be giving out pages from my scrap paper stack of old SPN show drafts — these are authentic, straight from the SPN office! u are free to ignore the craven self promotion I have xeroxed onto the reverse side :)
(4 of 4) in the battle between humanity and the inhuman forces of corporate avarice, monopoly, and exploitation. They will not stop with us; they are furiously refining the means of your ultimate exploitation as well. ALL ACTUAL HUMANS WILL FIGHT THIS SAME BATTLE.
(2 OF 4) We are the individuals with homes, families and livelihoods, defending the dignity and stability of our beloved profession against corporate greed and misled shareholders' expectations of unlimited growth.
Just noting
@mishacollins
continuing humanitarian efforts with admiration, now he’s giving his all to bring awareness to the war in Ukraine and the ongoing demining effort there
There are two "Mishas" in this pic. One is a middle-aged TV Batman villain & the other is an icon in Ukraine and one of the world's youngest cabinet ministers.
Misha Federov has proven that a nimble government can actually be even more innovative & resourceful than Silicon…
(3 of 4) The media in which we work form a robust and vital industry that guarantees profit, but our industry can't be expected to offset the losses of mega-corporations which were incurred by their failed ventures elsewhere. We line up today on just one of many emerging fronts

HEY EVERBUDDY as part of a project I'm workin on (to be available anon) I need to select SIX (6) and only SIX (6) episodes of Supernatural for a friend (who's never seen the show) to watch, selections intended to illustrate breadth, depth, and allure of the series. Thoughts?

Apart from the lightning-in-a-bottle chemistry between the actors and the excellence of the production team, I believe Supernatural lasted because of 2 key choices — 1. Make demons former humans and 2. Expand world to include firmament of corrupt seraphim

Hey Everbuddy here is a cartoon that needs a caption — u got till midnight Friday — best one (imho) wins a prize from the archives: a script, call sheet or the like from any show I’ve worked on (winner chooses show, I choose the piece) Must follow to win :)
Two of my favorite lines from this were actor adlibs —
@AustinBasis
:”I am 15/16ths Jew, 1/16 Cherokee, my great great grandfather was a degenerate gambler and peyote addict…” and
@westerspace
: “Rats are like the rats of the world…” Everyone BROUGHT IT, man!
I’m in a western, y’all.

YAY Kripke! A series is made up of innumerable contributions from so many hands and brains but this beautifully crafted thing also happens to be very ‘you’ as well :) CONGRATULATIONS
@KrisHay89
If I’m recallin what I said correctly, the lines were changed not due to agenda but because so much of what Cas was saying explicitly had been shown already in the scene work and made his declaration an overstatement (per rules of good dialogue)
Hard to believe it’s been five years :) it’s gone by so fast and yet so much has transpired. Happy n grateful that

still has love coming it’s way
O my. Everbuddy — I fell off my tightrope of communication w the world at large. Not the first time but I owe u a contest winner — my apologies for delay, will correct negligence in the New Year. At present I just want to wish everyone Happy Holidays and Merry Merry :)
