@UnbrokenDad @RealEmirHan I think it was to hook new viewers who had the channel on after the games.

@RealEmirHan Weird. The Office aired on Thursday nights when it came out.
Not sure if there’s validity to changing the channel after the Super Bowl, unless it’s a figure of speech.
English

In The Office writers were told to make the craziest opening scene of the show for this episode so people wouldn’t change the channel right after Super Bowl.
An initial wild idea was Jim losing Pam in a poker game, inspired by a French film.
But instead they came up with fire drill episode.
The cat gag was elaborate and expensive.
They used two real identical cats (one thrown up, one dropped down) with trainers in the ceiling.
$12,000 custom stuffed replica was made as backup.
No animals were harmed; trainers limited takes to protect the cats’ careers
Filming the fire drill took 1.5 days due to all the physical comedy and stunts. The cast’s genuine panic helped because the chaos was more intense than expected.
It was the most-watched episode of the series

@atrupar The 2+2=5 thing was supposed to be a metaphor; when you’re so utterly controlled by your totalitarian government that you begin to actually believe the lies they’re asking you to repeat.
I didn’t expect it would ever be taken so literally.

@deepbluetiffane @wma927 @DrIanWeissman @harryjsisson I can understand the confusion. The term is usually associated with a specific type of vaccine, for viruses. But there are other types, like the mRNA vaccine.
English

@wma927 @DrIanWeissman @harryjsisson Uh. I understand this now. I just. Maybe we need a different word for “vaccine” when it comes to cancer. Or treating something you’ve already had. This is just weird to me on so many levels. Kind of misrepresenting what they’re doing.
English

Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial. Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.

"As models get even more powerful, the idea that your system is tied down as a fixed black box is likely to become an archaic notion pretty quickly. As always, the future is already here, it's just not evenly distributed." world.hey.com/dhh/the-mallea…

@Cultural_Break @Variety Right? It's how the show was written. It's why people root for the deer in a deer documentary, and cheer for the tiger eating the deer, in the tiger documentary. Finding her to be a a bitch is just a sign of good immersive writing. Not a moral red flag.
English

@Variety She was written to be antagonistic to the protagonist. That's why people didn't like her character. Compare that to Kim Wexler who people liked because even when she disagreed with Jimmy, it came from a place of concern for him.
English

Bryan Cranston says he "couldn't understand" why some fans thought his "Breaking Bad" wife, Skyler, was a "bitch":
"Anna Gunn is a superb actor, but she got, ‘Oh, why don’t you get off his back?’ Wait a minute. Let me understand this. Her husband leaves without any explanation, she’s pregnant, he’s making crystal methamphetamine and people have died. And she's the bitch?”
