@AlysonMB1 Oh but I'm not getting anything haha
I didn't expect it to blow up (especially as it's a new side account), but it's been mostly civilised, I just enjoy the conversation
English
@_FourStories Neither you no Mr Laurie should be getting any comeback at all over this.
The interaction was pretty civil really, and that is what social media is for.
I saw what you both said, and then I followed you both. That's how I see the whole thing.
Have a lovely day, everybody.

So many thoughts and really I should get back to working
English
Also find it fascinating how many people think it was just a cash grab for him because of course he's a highbrow Footlights alumni how could he be invested in an american network show about a crazy doctor
English
I find the "why does he care she wasn't insulting him" argument fascinating
Why is standing up for your writers and show considered weird?
English
@cix_stormrage think that there can't be an exchange just because he's got 1M followers
I thought the actual back and forth was amusing, even if a bit snarky
English
@cix_stormrage Indeed, but in the end the ones that are not getting any backlash are said fans (if they're even fans, I'd say just idiots)
He takes responsability for them, she takes the outrage, they breeze through it
Utopistic to think they should be the ones apologising, but it's a shame to
English
@pawswithprose And she's handling it as a big attention seeker, really
English
@pawswithprose Pretty much
Most people understood he was being sarcastic and well-adjusted ones didn't feel the need to go and harass her, I'm sorry she got hatred (for this, at least) and understand why he apologised for that but people should take responsability for their own actions
English
@BiblioPhilip As I said, I understand that
He wasn't apologising for the content he was apologising cause he should've considered it would've been better to just let it slide
What I'm saying is, the way she's handled the thing, he could've gone without doing it
She's milking the attention
English
@_FourStories But also.. not really an apology. Part explanation, and led off with a very specific and pointed empathetic statement - not apologizing for what was said, merely IF it was the cause of OTHERs' vitriol.
English
@_FourStories he didn't apologize
for his statement, he apologized for the follow on it caused

@jan_murray I worked on House. There were a few episodes that weren’t the usual formula and exciting to work on. My time around Hugh - always a gentleman and not surprised he sent you this post. He’s a good man.
English
@housewaiful Yeah don't get me started on that lot lol, but also random people who just assume that's what celebs do
I may be too kind to him here, but part of me believes he wouldn't have dwelved into it if she was giving shit to him and his acting directly, instead of the writing
English
@_FourStories The people saying that are mainly ones who already hate him so yeah they wouldn't think that further shhdjfkf
He's totally entitled to respond
English
I'll start by saying people thinking HL is pathetic or thin-skinned (which he is, admittedly) for that tweet are kinda missing the point
OP's tweet blew up, he saw it, given that it's reheashed and frankly lazy criticism he stood up for himself and more importantly the show and
English
@housewaiful Oh of course, makes me laugh people genuinely believe he was vanity searching like his name was in that tweet 4 times do you know how an algorithm even works
And I don't think people realise but he's probably heard/read the same criticism 2000 times, you can't help it sometimes
English
@_FourStories I just know her business was on his home timeline that's why he even replied. Already drunk + being pissy and the first thing you see when you open twitter is someone shitting on your show. I would've thrown hands too

ce@housewaiful
@onthemuddyroad @nwtnsappletree I’m betting it made his name trending so he instantly came across it when clicking the search page. Even before he replied the interactions were A Lot (i know bc before he had seen it i was going through his name as per usual and its full of mentions connected to that acc)
English
@housewaiful Yeah and then also people who wouldn't usually care just see it's the trend of the day and chime in and take sides
As I said don't think the tweet itself was deserving of an apology but I understand why he'd do it
English
@_FourStories His supporters get to have their misogynistic acts of the day and her supporters get to be more emboldened in their fake "feminism" trash 🙃
