AHH! Looks like I can FINALLY talk about my next show 🤞!! An adaptation we're developing for Netflix.

More in a sec, but here' a SUPER SUBTLE hint 😇:

[Michelle Lovretta @lovretta]

This shit should be illegal, and those involved charged and prosecuted every. Fucking. Time. "Hollywood Accounting" is just blatant, unapologetic theft.

[Caroline Renard @carolinerenard_]

Context for the “spoiled actors” crowd.

[Julie Bush @julie_bush]

i’m convinced both WGA & SAG need to go after the studios in federal court for “hollywood accounting” after this. how are they allowed to just straight up rob our members and no one does anything? what about the IRS?

Christina Fawcett shows us how to perceive through a fairy tale lens in “Changeling the Outcome: Fairy-Tale Framing and the Ethics of Care in Michelle @lovretta's #Killjoys.”

I get annoyed by the “why you, why now?” question that writers get about potential projects. It’s unlikely Jesse Armstrong comes from a family of amoral gazillionaires. Not everything has to be ripped from personal history. Sometimes you just have a sharp idea at the right time

[Justine Stafford @JustineStafford]

i just don’t get how they can still be so fast or so furious

[Cartoons Hate Her! @CartoonsHateHer]

I’m jealous of Gen Z for missing the era of the “cute top.” I once asked a forum about club outfits ideas and everyone said “jeans and a cute top” and I said “what’s an example of a cute top” and they all just laughed and told me to Google it

[Variety @Variety]

George R.R. Martin has issued another impassioned blog post in support of the writers strike: "If the story editors of 2023 are not allowed to get any production experience, where do the studios think the showrunners of 2033 are going to come from?" https://t.co/O3ugiXoXJ0

Since many want to know. Here are some of the steps of the development process:
--Pitch: You thought of your own Tv show idea, and you've developed a pitch for it
--Production Company attaches: You've pitched to a POD and they liked it, they decide to "take it out" with you
