What We Do In the Media

Kayvan in his natural accent breaks my brain, but I love it!

Don't forget to vote for WWDitS in the Primetimer Wards. It's nominated in five or six categories but unfortunately got knocked out of Best Comedy.

[sagittarius sue]

I checked my cable guide, and we get episodes 1 and 2 next week.  A full hour to celebrate the return of WWDITS!

Congratulations on receiving an Emmy nomination for best comedy!

I thought this was cute.

Of course, just about every response to this tweet is Guillermo. I hope they don't get together in the show, but I love it when people are invested without being toxic. 🥰

[Catfi9ht]

I love Guillermo's arc in this show. Harvey Guillen is working really hard on everything Guillermo has to do and it shows.

I laughed way too hard at this. This style of photography will never not be funny to me.

I read an interview in last week's PARADE magazine (It was Sunday and I'm old!) with Bob Newhart. It's the 50th anniversary of his THE BOB NEWHART SHOW. One of the questions asked was what he's watching now. WWDITS was the answer. If I were associated with WWDITS in any way I'd be jumping up and down with happiness.

Now I really want Newhart to do a cameo.

Yes! That would be a blast. He's 92 now, I think.

Perhaps as the grand supreme king of vampires . . . who just happens to be deadpan as heck.

He should be who Guillermo has been texting with.

I never knew how much I needed Bob Newhart to be a part of this show until now!

Maybe I need him to be a part of many other shows as well...

Getting away from the comedic legend . . . are there any teasers for tomorrow night's episode?

Per the official WWDITS Twitter account, next episode is titled Freddie.  The show has been very stingy on teasers this year.

I know the episode title, and I’ve seen how scarce information has been. I was thinking/hoping we’d get a little something before tomorrow night. 🤷‍♂️

 

Whoops, spoke too soon.

Thought: in terms of comparison to It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, this might be to "Frank Reynolds' Little Beauties" what "Go Flip Yourself" was to "The Gang Gets Extreme Home Makeover Edition."

Anoop Desai interview about playing the Djinn. He was originally only supposed to be in two episodes.

Quote

The glasses are a huge part of this character. How did you find that?
The glasses and the pen were two things that I brought from my original audition, I was just very clear about those being the tools that this guy has. And then as we started shooting, the idea of the pen being the granter of wishes came into play. Again, that image of someone looking down doing something and you’re disturbing him, and just him looking over his glasses at you … It’s really just that image and luckily enough, they stuck with it.

Quote

I’m glad you bring up the wedding episode, because there’s so many interesting reveals. I’m curious how you think Djinn feels about Nandor? Is he pitying him? Does he resent him? Is he happy because he’s burning through these wishes so quickly? 
I think that there was a turning point where Djinn knows that this guy is just hopeless. He’s seen a lot of people make some really stupid wishes, but I think the angst with which Nandor makes his wishes is evident to Djinn. So there is the beginning of a soft spot for him. A beginning of, like, “Man, this guy is trying really hard and he still is messing it up.”

So there is pity, and at the same time, at the end of the penis-enlargement episode, there is this idea of, “I told you what I’m doing, I’m trying to screw you over and you keep just not seeing it.” So I’m not sure if they’re friends necessarily, but I think that it’s more than a master/genie relationship.

Catching up on my Washington Posts. The Sept.11 arts section has a story on Henry Regnault's painting Salome. Can you guess where we've seen her before?

Just saw an instagram ad. New season starts July 13th! 

[Vermicious Knid]

First poster.

Also first synopsis. The Guide is a full member of the crew now. 

Quote

“In Season 5, Nandor feels his familiar (and sometimes friend) Guillermo slipping away as he seems to be spending much more time with Laszlo, whose skills as a gentleman scientist are put to the test as he tries to solve the mystery of the strange and very secret changes Guillermo is going through,” reads the synopsis. “Nadja, suffering the effects of a previously-undiagnosed supernatural hex, reconnects with her family – or at least, a family – from the Old Country, Colin pursues the path of so many energy vampires before him by running for political office and The Guide tries to figure out where she fits in as the relative newcomer to this tightly-knit group who’ve known each other for centuries.”

Trailer:

I’m calling it . . . Gizmo’s bloodline doesn’t allow him to be turned.

While I agree, doesn't make it hurt any less. I'm going to miss it.
