They just showed fantastic Woody Harrelson clip from #gamechange. Woody deserved more awards recognition.

I am past being sick of #parksandrec never winning. Stuck in anger, never to reach acceptance.

The #wgaawards for variety-comedy series - a category with eight nominees - goes to ... #portlandia?

A native of Los Angeles raised by two parents and "Hill Street Blues," Jon Weisman ankled his scriptwriting career and began working for Variety in 2004, subsequently serving as associate editor of features and television reporter before becoming awards editor. He promises not to use this platform to retroactively campaign for Oscars for “The Misfits,” though he’d feel justified in doing so.
