Straight from our e-mail in-box to all our TVWriter™ buds, everything you need to know about the web series formerly known as INSPECTOR SPACETIME but now called UNTITLED WEB SERIES ABOUT A SPACE TRAVELER WHO CAN ALSO TRAVEL THROUGH TIME…(yeah, we’ve talked about this before):
Greetings, Inspectators!
TVLine has a poll asking the wonderful – for writers – question:
Emmys 2012: What Should Win Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series? – by Michael Slezak
We’ve reached the episode-specific portion of our “Who Should Win” Emmy poll series, so it’s time to hit the rewind button on your internal DVRs to ensure a fully informed voting process. Today, we’re taking a closer look at the race for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series.

When NBC announced Dan Harmon’s departure from the show Community, a shock wave echoed across the Internet – at least in the households of the shows’ fans, many of whom, in addition to watching the show, religiously follow Harmon’s tumblr (whose entries are often geared toward them) and Twitter. There was an immediate backlash from these folks, who considered Harmon synonymous with the show’s success – and it revealed an interesting trend that’s emerging in TV culture right now.

“I would have fired me.”
…By Dan Harmon and the COMMUNITY gang. (Should that be “former COMMUNITY gang?” We won’t know till we see what the new showrunners come up with, will we?)
It’s show within a show, see? On COMMUNITY. Or as, ~tinderbox210, the creator of this poster puts it:
This is my newest obsession – a sadly very underrated comedy tv series called COMMUNITY. Those who know the show have probably fallen just as fast as for it as i did, those who don’t – shame on you
