Beginning my personal re-watch of #Studio60ontheSunsetStrip in prep for the 9/20 @GLucasTalkShow 17-hour watchathon to raise money for @BCEFA bc I haven't seen it since it first aired & I wanna see it again as myself b4 watching it in character as "retired filmmaker George Lucas"

Also: @patrickcotnoir is working so hard in preparation for this one that the least I could do is watch all 22 episodes again before watching them a 3rd time for our show.

I think this is the watchathon Patrick was put on earth to produce.

Taking stock during my Studio 60 re-watch:

I have performed improv in front of 2 actors who were on Studio 60, and I was in a movie with 2 others.

ALSO: I feel like there should be more Studio 60 gifs and memes than there are. Like, a LOT more.

One of the small delights of my Studio 60 rewatch is that these illegal versions have terrible subtitles that often mangle the dialogue in ways that I really enjoy on a show about writing & perfectionism.

Matt Albie would be FURIOUS at how badly this punchline got destroyed:

I think I have genuinely fun & great observation to make about #Studio60ontheSunsetStrip that I don't *think* anyone else has made before (altho maybe they have) but I cannot make it until we get through with the full 17-hour marathon on 9/20 (the wee hours of 9/21, actually).

JANUARY 2007: the suggestion is planted in my brain and will be activated roughly 2 years and 4 months later
