After nearly 5 years of work and waiting, my show #Griselda is not just out in the world, it's the #1 show on #Netflix! To say I'm proud of every person who worked on it would be an understatement. ❤️

Getting the deal news, thinking 'bout all the projects I didn't finish for five months. #deal #wgastrong


It's finally here #wgastrong #Deal


Dead 🤣

Early in the strike, I tweeted about room size, went viral. Subsequently got a call from NYT. Nice enough reporter, but kept asking about division in strike lines. I made it clear there was none. Told me I'd get another call to fact check. Shocker, never heard from them again. 🙄

Not to be petty and make this about me, but back in April, a week before the strike was called, an editor from the @nytimes approached me to write a guest essay for the opinion section. (quick 🧵)

Monday, I was on the line at Amazon. My sign: "Room Size Matters." A man approached, said he was from Variety. Could he ask me some questions? I politely suggested he go to check-in and talk to a WGA captain. He pointed to my sign. "But that's what I want to talk about." 1/2

The framing here is the tell: "Rising hopes" as the AMPTP is said to "give" something of seeming value. I am on the negotiating panel. Our hopes will rise when, on confronting a fair contract, the studios come to terms. Trust not the trades. Trust not the studio leaks. #WGAStrong

The Writers Guild of America is expected to meet in the coming days with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, amid rising hopes for a resolution of the three-month strike. variety.com/2023/biz/news/…



I don't get the legacy companies' thinking. The techs? Easy. Cash to burn, so prolong the strike, drive down legacy stock prices. Then gobble up legacies at a discount. Are the Zaslavs/Igers counting on big payouts upon sales? Is it self-sabotage? Why else stay in the #AMPTP?


I know we all want to be hopeful about today's reengagement but here's a little reminder about who we're dealing with. Temperance is key. #foolmeonce

Minimum staff size. I keep getting asked about it. I myself didn’t entirely understand until the Showrunner Meeting. Even then, it took three people asking the same question until the pieces locked together for many of us. It is literally for the survival of our union. Why?



*chef's kiss

this is the best "actor playing a character who is bad at acting" performance of all time. so incredibly funny.



Spoke to a dear friend who's also a studio exec. She was bummed bc a writer openly snubbed her at a screening. Writers (and actors), pls remember that creative execs have ZERO control over what the C-suite does. Most of them support us. Don't quell that by being rude. #wgastrong


I guarantee if I put Iger's comments and the starve-'em-til-Oct plan in a script, I'd get the notes "too arch and over the top" from the very same execs. #wgastrong #SAGAFTRAstrong #PayYourArtists

"What are we doing?! Moving around furniture on the Titanic?!" Holy shit, Fran Drescher is my new hero. #wgastrong #SAGAFTRAstrong

Perhaps Iger got jealous of the attention Zaslav's been getting. Any actor will tell you it's more interesting to play the #villain #wgastrong #sagafra
