Team Conan

If you work really hard and you're kind,
amazing things will happen.
- Conan O'Brien, last night on Tonight Show

I gotta hand it to him, Conan handled this whole situation with class. I worked with him on the Emmys back in '03, and the thing I remember most was how much he cared about his bit on the show. He wanted to make sure he got it just right for the Executive Producer. (Yes, I'm name dropping.)

I'll continue to name names -- for the year I lived in Hollywood, I also worked on an NBC/Dreamworks pilot. The show didn't get picked up, not for lack of a good plot or actors, but because NBC drowned it under a wave of notes. Not a surprise since it was a pet project for Jeff Zucker, the Chief Excrement Officer at NBC who also helped knock Conan off The Tonight Show.

Don't even get me started on Jay "Hey, I promise to retire in 5 years and give you my show...oh wait, I want it back!" Leno.

Mid-Year Review Time: A Diorama

Yes, I haven't posted since December. That's because I'm in the middle of tax season (full FCC disclosure: I work for TurboTax).

It's also mid-year review time. To keep you engaged and happy whilst I'm writing tons o' copy for our fabulous users, I give you this: my mid-year review self-evaluation.

That's right. I did my review as a diorama. My boss told us to prepare a paragraph (or whatever works for us) to review with her how we feel we're doing.

I'm on the Creative Team. We saw "or whatever works" and RAN with it. Behold, my diorama.

What's the craziest thing you've ever done for a review?
