About to close a development deal on a pilot that, if all goes well, should trigger a series pick-up which would see us shooting in Portugal this summer. Anyone been? I hear the food is good.
Whenever someone on Top Chef complains about the dessert being too sweet…
Akemi and I are catching up on the seasons we missed during the pandemic. Season 19, Top Chef Houston, was the absolute worst. Possibly THE worst ever season. Season 20, however, is a grand return to form. Looking forward to Season 21 that kicks off next month…
When I may be in L.A. pitching a show. Or, possibly, canceling plans to pitch a show in L.A. because I’ll be in a writers’ room spinning the first season of this Porugal-shot series.
Talent! https://t.co/OU2g3hXsok

What's a comic book panel that had a profound impact on you?
The final panel of Avengers Annual #7 was a gut-punch that still resonates whenever I see it. https://t.co/LcrQ9BFYbM pic.twitter.com/jGl1dcLq4q

Also, the final reveal of Thunderbolts #1. This one had a huge influence on my show #DarkMatter. https://t.co/mntwG53s6Q pic.twitter.com/CtumWZj7A7

Had lunch the other day with writers/podcasters Jason Inman and Ashley Robinson who were in town on Star Trek-related matters.
We ordered two desserts at the restaurant, then made the three block walk over to Geste Bistro & Boulangerie where we split three more (which I washed down with a mocha.
A good time was had by all.

Portugal? Would you able to take Sharky?
I do love to watch different film locations on TV. I’ve been watching Forst on Netflix. It’s set in Poland and the scenery is gorgeous!
On yesterday’s post: I’d say yes to everything but the beer mints. Ick.
Portugal is big on Sardines … grilled!
Re: Portugal – I’m more familiar with the southern part of the country. Lisbon is a beautiful city, full of character. Walking shoes are needed – exploring the old parts of town involves steps – lots of them! The resorts of Estoril & Cascais are a bus ride from the city, and the town of Sintra is also worth a visit. I hope your work there leaves you some downtime to relax. Food is fantastic, lots of fish dishes, as you might expect 😊
Well, you already know where my head and heart is at these days. Soooo, no matter how good the food is in Portugal I’m rooting for Snuggle-san aka Snubble.
I can already picture it in my mind.
The first night you bring her home -Sharky cozies up on Akemi’s side while Snuggle-san gets comfy on yours. They both sleep peacefully through the night.
The next day Akemi removes all of Sharky’s personal items from his safe space open air play pen and places in one neutral blanket and one neutral sponge ball toy for the pups to bat back n forth. She requests the two enter the corral together.
In the quieter space of your home with just the two of them sharing a blanket and toy in an enclosed, limited space, after about an hour the beauty of these two sweet mellow puppers bonding will feel simply magical.
And just so you don’t feel like you missed out on anything … Akemi decides to learn how to make Portuguese dinner dishes for you try a new cuisine.
… and they all lived happily ever after. xo
Portugal this summer!!! I have been living there for the last 2 years, on and off while flitting around TheEU. I hope I can run into you all…and the pup!
Portugal sounds great but please include Paris for the food of all foods, plus the many, many kilometers of doggie poo in Paris is a testament to how puppy friendly they are.
