shipperxgakked from spikewriter (her words) :
Sam Rubin just reported on the KTLA Morning News that there's been an upset at the new show Callista Flockhart is doing for ABC. Called Brothers and Sisters, it seems that Ken Olin, the show's creator, wasn't getting along with Marti Noxon, the show runner, and yesterday she left the show.
I'm sure everyone on my friends list is appropriately shocked and upset.

Date: 2006-08-09 03:45 pm (UTC)But really - the show's creator has his wife as one of the stars, his son is one of the writers; and somehow Marti thought she was going to have it running her way?
Yeah, right, that works.

Date: 2006-08-09 03:59 pm (UTC)I do wonder to what extent the people in Hollywood who actually hire producers and showrunners are aware of how they are perceived by the fans (and of whether the fans' perceptions may actually have merit).

I wonder if she wanted to add a raving eating disorder into the plot? Hmmm...
