And yet the majority of liberals & leftists believe what RFK says about Covid and are completely aligned with his Covid denialism. This is how insane you sound when u start talking about how Covid is β€œmild now” (it’s not mild and we are still in an active pandemic w fewer treatments than in 2022)

So once again I will remind you all that the show ya’ll are all talking about (The Pitt) had all levels of writers in the room including lower and mid levels.

If we want more good TV, everyone at the top needs to fight for proper writers rooms… because the results speak for themselves!

Understanding the practical limits in such things, I nonetheless demand that The Pitt season two be released tomorrow, with a new entire season to be released every weekend for the rest of the year.

I feel so lucky to have benefited from a non-competitive room experience with you! I learned so much, felt freedom to pitch big & outrageously, and didn’t have to waste energy navigating egos.
