Dallas returns with a vengeance!
Don’t call it a comeback! Decades after ‘Dallas’ ended it successful run, TNT has revived the landmark series for another round of backstabbing and betrayal! So, how does their version fare? Surprisingly well, actually.
Just saying…

Bruce Campbell is like Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride. He’s the acid trip you took in high school. He’s the unboxed Cat in the Hat. Heck, he’s the mad hatter without a hat. He’s a whirling dervish that never stops whirling. Unstopped and uncorked, he’s the madcap genie out of the bottle. If you ever have the chance to attend a Bruce Campbell panel, don’t ask questions — just GO!
The 99%.Com is filled with great tips, and this is just one of them. Still, whenever we read anything like this we go back to a certain hoary old saying: “If you have to ask, you can’t afford one.” Do the truly creative need to consciously work out how to do what they do?
Why Boredom is Good for Your Creativity
By Mark McGuinness
Like most creatives, you probably have a low boredom threshold. You’re hardwired to pursue novelty and inspiration, and to run from admin and drudgery. Boredom is the enemy of creativity, to be avoided at all costs. Or is it?
Our favorite sitcom writer who doesn’t know us has some excellent advice about sitcom format. (And, no, we don’t know what the picture has to do with it. You’ll have to ask Ken. Tell him TVWriter™ sent you.)
A question I’m always asked is:
By the time I managed to locate Bert Leonard, all that was left of him fit into a small unit in a self-storage facility in Los Angeles that was hemmed in by concertina wire and a row of spindly palm trees.
– Susan Orlean
All that was left of him was not a storage unit. That wasn’t all that was left of his life. He had all of his children around him, and he got to understand that he was leaving us behind. He didn’t die alone.
