@adlangford Me too. Loath him.

[Patrick @prezpat]

@Elizacanfield @AlanSarapa Agreed. He's always been terrible as well.

[Patrick @prezpat]

@MarkHToo Honestly, I haven't been watching EE much lately. I don't really have much faith in the current exec producer.

[Patrick @prezpat]

@MarkHToo Like All My Children under Pratt, he'd a bunch of villains running around and it basically killed the show. UK soaps making some of the same mistakes US shows did.

[Patrick @prezpat]

@MarkHToo I've always felt UK soaps are following the similar path as US soaps, just on a 10-15 year delay. From ratings trends, to budget cuts resulting in cast cuts, to writing quality decline and even now a reliance on gimmicks like returns from the dead to grab headlines and viewers.

[Patrick @prezpat]

Good. Hopefully Alex Kurtzman finally get fired and we can put someone in charge of the franchise that actually understands it.

Any other millennial gays, going crazy over A*Teens new song "Iconic"? or is it just me? I can't believe we got new music after 20 years. I absolutely love the new song. #ATeens https://t.co/Id8UENG2H6

I'd rather have toenail fungus than Trump's illegal gestapo.

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA), on @billmaher “Real Time” tonight: “The polls tell me that the president’s [immigration] enforcement efforts are polling right up there with toenail fungus. I get it.”

What Chaos > Empty Netters. 100%

[Cyd Zeigler @CydZeigler]

Yes, in private one of the Empty Netters hosts was telling people Heated Rivalry was "trash" and saying cruel things about the show and its creators. Hopefully he will explain himself.

Hell has froze over. LOL

[Paul Finebaum @finebaum]

A mea culpa with a side of crow about the Hoosiers this season...

[Patrick @prezpat]

@EmptyNettersPod Not too late to have a bi awakening Chris. We all support you.

[Patrick @prezpat]

I need someone to make a Scott and Kip edit to the song "Rewrite The Stars" if it doesn't already exist and send me a link to it. 🥰 #heatedrivalry #Skip

[Patrick @prezpat]

[Patrick @prezpat]

Hopefully ABC/911 sees Heated Rivalry's success and makes Buddie canon while Brad Bell writes for Remy and Deke on Bold and Beautiful.

[Corey Jacob @coreytimes]

This was the best part of the entire episode… need an entire series of just them #HeatedRivalry

[Patrick @prezpat]

Great Interview. But give Scott, Kip and the couples in the other books their own spin off and let them pop in the main show when needed. #heatedrivalry

#HeatedRivalry creator Jacob Tierney on why women love the show:

"Women love these books. These are books written by a woman. These are books largely consumed by women. So I wouldn’t want to speak on behalf of a female audience, but I think that what women are presented in romance is not always something that interests them in that way. I think that women are also, in real life and in culture, endlessly exposed to sexual violence. Seeing things like this, that are depictions ultimately of male vulnerability, can be very refreshing. From what I’ve heard, from the women who have written to me and Rachel and the boys, there’s a safety in seeing a woman being removed from the conversation. So you’re watching something happen between two men, and there is no fear of violence. There is no fear of things turning into stuff that women have to deal with too much in real life, and don’t want to deal with in their fantasies, and ultimately, this is a romantic fantasy. I think it’s also that maybe romance — which is a genre that women love and write and read and are the primary consumers of — just doesn’t get treated with a lot of respect. Nor do the people that make it, or those that adapt it either. So I think that they are responding to, at least I hope, the fact that we came to it pretty fullhearted, and as fans and as people who want to honor this material and want to honor the genre and make it as romantic as we can. That’s certainly what I wanted to do."
