“Sam Barsanti arrives on time, always has your charger type and his car smells like a spring garden.” - Uber review 6/1/2022

Looks like AV Club and a few other are the Onion Union rather than GMG Union.

This might be as much solidarity for the GMG Union strike as we can get to see published.

I am tempted to be snarky about how this was just a public contract negotiation we all watched but holding out on doing something on principal only to cave because he is offered a pile of money is the most Bender thing he could have done 

Here’s a helpful reminder to never settle for less than you’re worth and to always stand up and fight for the respect that you deserve from your employers

Them not posting new content. That’s literally what this thread is about.

Excellent outcome for John. Now we can get back to worrying if it will actually be any good.

Nice detective work there, much appreciated.  That's a bummer.

Thanks for calling attention to this, I googled b/c your post and here’s what I found: https://variety.com/2022/digital/news/g-o-media-strike-gizmodo-jezebel-1235193062/

Issue with oral agreements isn’t that they aren’t valid, it’s that it can be hard to prove what the terms were. 

I liked it, but it has lost some sparkle. I think it’s mainly Aldis Hodge’s absence.

There’s probably a formula by now.

What else does Hutton have going on, that he’d benefit from people forgetting the allegation (not that anyone forgets, anymore)? He’s using the only—ahem—leverage he’s got, in that it’s probably worth something (less than $3million, certainly, but something) to the producers not to have “rape of a 14 year old” be the…

If he thinks he was owed $3 million, he’s hoping he can settle for maybe a third of it.

Yeah, I’ve always described it as a light-hearted Mission Impossible, and that is an endorsement.

Absolutely. See also: Danny Ocean in Ocean’s 8, which was a clear placeholder of “if we can get George to show up next time”. 

Leverage is also REALLY funny. It’s no shock Aldis Hodge eventually broke out into a star in his own right. 

This being Leverage, a “Nate was faking his death all along” plotline isn’t exactly out of the question.

I can only assume that he filed this lawsuit instead of hiring a team of ex-cons to infiltrate the production company, hack its computer system, and release all the details of the negotiation.  The latter only makes for better-than-average TV.
