#Veep's last day of shooting was filled with tears, laughs, an impromptu nap, gifts, more tears, speeches, toasts, & sometimes other people cried, too. (OK, Tony Hale was a mess throughout.) Words cannot describe what it felt like to be there, but I tried: https://t.co/9YAwaGbrAA

If your Outie stayed up late or your Innie got up early, this is for you — both of you. My review of the 'Severance' Season 2 finale, just below. Good show!

Erin is a fantastic editor who always made me feel cared for and encouraged, while still improving every story she touched. I have no idea how she does it, but everyone should be trying like hell to find out — hire her.

[Erin Strecker @ErinStrecker]

The rumors (and news stories🙃) are true! I was laid off from IndieWire. I'm bummed & now looking for work. Get in touch about writing/editing/content strategy: Strecker.erin @ gmail!

In the words of Phoebe Buffay, happy needless turkey murder day.

Today's episode of #MadePossibleByPopCulture covers journalist-favorite #FRIENDS Thanksgiving episodes w/ @emilylongeretta @elainelow & @BenTTravers.

Ted Danson is a national treasure. (And Mike Schur ain’t far behind.) https://t.co/xFL5GRLeIT

“The Day of the Jackal” is so egregiously bloated I can’t believe it’s not on Netflix. There are a few good ideas rummaging around in its 10-episode first season, but the inflated runtime drags everything down with it. My review: https://t.co/lvIixYEZMb

[Ben Travers @BenTTravers]

@GirlyGirl694 @IndieWire A fair point! (And one I wrestle with in the margins.)

[Ben Travers @BenTTravers]

After its longest-ever break between new episodes, “Yellowstone” finally returned… as a very different show. Some would say a worse show. OK, it’s me, I’m saying it. https://t.co/PqLq1hoLCA

@filmflammer Thank you for reading!

Anthony Rizzo is once again playing for a ring. Happy for him. #AnthonyRizzoForever.

Apple just renewed "Slow Horses" for a *sixth* season, so now's as good a time as any to revisit why The Little Spy Show That Could is suddenly doing so well: https://t.co/SqAMWD2VJs

Babygirl is the closest thing we’ll ever get to an Eyes Wide Shut sequel and I loved it. Kidman and Dickinson are both outstanding — so rare and fun to see a movie where the characters genuinely seem unsure what they’re capable of.

I wrote about MEGALOPOLIS. Again. https://t.co/bEtJ9JWnKC

[Ben Travers @BenTTravers]

The release date is such a buzzkill for this perfect trailer.

A mid-ceremony advertisement for scotch starring one of the night's award winners.

Clearly, the #Emmys are thriving.

[Ben Travers @BenTTravers]

Clearly, the TV Academy liked "The Bear" Season 3 just fine (even though they're only supposed to be considering Season 2).

[Alison Herman @aherman2006]

once again the members of the television academy have *no* idea what season of THE BEAR they're voting for
