With the Lights Out, It’s Less Dangerous.
My favorite part of the article Dan just quoted is this: “Office workers took the opportunity for an extended lunch as police and fire sirens echoed in the background.” And that’s how LA handles it. “Sweet! Extra lunch, dude!” But writers, we can write on paper, so there was no lunch break for us. In…

Lyrics Born: Later That Day…

Television Without Pity has created a special Recapalooza in support of this effort. For every $2000 raised, a TWoP recapper will recap something weird and wonderful of their choosing (uh oh!). TWoP and Glarkware will cover any credit…
