Was the problem green-lighting “overly” personal stories, or that none of the execs had the skills to find, develop, and amplify the universal themes in those stories?

Everyone agrees the clock changes are awful, but no one agrees on what we should do instead. So we’re just going to have this conversation every six months forever.
You in another decade (“Travels with My Discontent” at Barrington Stage Company, 2006)

Youve sold me!
Current events remind me of this display i saw in a bookstore the other week.
I never heard about "China," I never saw "China," I didn't give a fuck about "China."

I have that exact problem. This stuff from Firsthand is a miracle product www.firsthandsupply.com/products/cla...

So bizarre. If they had that much of an issue with the material, it seems the simplest thing would be to not do Kiss, Me, Kate.
Whenever this happens i just want to scream “we know you were on a show 30 years ago! You can look 30 years older now!”
You’re both taller and more adept at the metric system than I expected!
You basically work for the red cross
We needed the city to shut off our water so we could replace the main valve at our meter. Aging infrastructure means that request requires a 4-person crew to completely replace our switch at the curb. And it’s just really hard to imagine how this can continue for decades (or an alternative).

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.
But also, where were they when Scott Rubin somehow couldn’t find replacements to keep HELLO, DOLLY! of all things running

I remember Gower’s biography mentioning that he fought hard for cornelious/irene to be just as strong comedically as dolly/horace. Apparently he lost the influence to mandate that once reilly/brennan left
I also remember original cast members did NOT appreciate that the cast recording was initially released as half of “Harry on Broadway Act 1”
I remember Ken Mandelbaum being an outlier with a luke warm assessment. I believe he said something like “and Harry Connick Jr. just stared at his shoes.”
The 90s/00s were crazy, because people would just flat out say “women can’t be funny,” and then act like Jim Breuer was hilarious
