Please please PLEASE treat yourself and watch Forbrydelsen (The Crime). I watched it days before The Killing and it rendered The Killing unwatchable.
The only thing Forbrydelsen has in common with Twin Peaks is the who killed this girl? aspect. It's really annoying. And I have to agree that Twin Peaks was deeply unsatisfying.

Who's with me on `The Killing'?
The bizarre and wholly unsatisfying conclusion to the "Who killed Laura Palmer?" mystery at the heart of "Twin Peaks" put me off the murder-mystery miniseries genre for 20 years. But all the excellent reviews prompted me to take a chance on the "Who killed Rosie Larsen?" mystery at the heart of...
Ken Jennings! LUCKY!

Emerald City Comicon after action report
ECCC has officially joined PAX on the List of Conventions I Don't Ever Want To Miss. It's well-organized, staffed by competent and friendly volunteers, and has what is, in my opinion, the perfect balance of comics and popular geek culture. This year, I had to leave Saturday afternoon to fly home...
Monster Squad was amazing! I was so in love with Ryan Lambert! These posts are bringing back some awesome memories!

regarding dangly ankh earrings and the 18 year-olds who wore them in 1990
I shoot Big Bang Theory on Monday before I go back to Vancouver to finish out the fourth season of Eureka, so I have scored an entirely unexpected bonus weekend at home with my wife. Yesterday, we heard that Toy Soldiers was playing on local station KDOC (which was one of the truly great UHF sta...
Ha, I have this on VHS. I remember when it came out and my cousin rented it for us to watch. I think we were in 7th grade. The movie scared me to death at the time but as I grew older I came to appreciate it. I'll have to re-watch it soon!

five simple ways to Just Keep Writing
I'm reluctant to pass myself off as some kind of authority on writing, because I still have a lot to learn, but from time to time I'm asked a question that I can answer with some degree of confidence. That happened earlier today, and (as you'll see at the end of this post) I thought it may be wo...

A few days after my sixteenth birthday, I lost my Rocky Horror virginity with my best friend, in a shitty little duplex theater in Van Nuys. I'd wanted to see Rocky since I was ten or eleven on my way to an audition and my mom drove us past a marquee advertising a midnight showing every Saturday...

186, and some other NUMB3RS
The good news is that I packed and labeled 186 books to be shipped. Of those 186, about 30 are international orders that still need customs forms and postage, but the rest are ready to go. This brings us to the bad news, which is that I just finished now, an hour after the post office closed, t...

So I missed your birthday and WWdN's birthday (or would it have been teh Box's bday?), but anyway, I read your blog when I can, and I hope you and your family are well.
Hope your summer was grand, Unca Willie.

I had an on-camera audition yesterday, the first one in several months. It was for a sitcom, and the material was sort of tough: it was essentially the same beat over and over again, and I had to come up with ways to make each beat different and entertaining (well, at least to myself.) It was su...
