So I got married on Sunday. I’m actually on my honeymoon now, as you read this, which is why I’ll be off next week, but that’s not why I mention it. I mention it because, a few months ago, after my wife — still weird to say that — and I chose our wedding... »

Well, this was both a big surprise, and not even remotely surprising. On the one hand, when word came down that CAA had purchased ICM for what I understand is north of a half billion dollars, I was stunned, because it never occurred to me that one of these agencies would buy another so... »

I am not a member of IATSE, but I have many friends who are. Also, I am a member of the Hollywood community, in that I work here, even if I don’t actually live here. Because of that, I have been paying attention to the ongoing contract negotiations between the union and the Alliance... »

I go into every awards show feeling the same way about it. I tune in wanting to enjoy and see if my predictions are right, check out the speeches, appreciate the fun moments, and then think about what my speech will be like if I ever get up there some day. What I inevitably... »

For each of the last few years, I’ve done this thing wherein I write a bunch of essays about the various Oscar categories and share them on Facebook with my friends. I delve into the intricacies of each discipline, the history, the ups and downs and ins and outs, and then talk about the... »

The concept of turning a movie into a TV show, or spinning off a TV show from a movie, is not new. It goes back decades, to before many of us were even born. In the 1960s alone, just off the top of my head, were Peyton Place and The Courtship of Eddie’s Father.... »

I used to be a big Jeopardy! fan, but as with many things that catch our fancy, that faded with time. I still have affection for the show, but I don’t watch religiously like I used to and as some of my friends do. Still, when Alex Trebek died, I poured one out for... »

My fiancée and I don’t have a lot of TV shows in common. Part of it is that she doesn’t watch a lot of television, and when she does, she enjoys rewatching Parks and Recreation for the sixth or seventh time, which I certainly don’t mind, because it’s fun, and we get to laugh... »
