Mad Men Creator: “Death To All Spoilers”

The Hollywood Reporter has some interesting roundtable discussions with the Emmy-nominated showrunners Matthew Weiner (Mad Men), Shonda Rimes (Grey’s Anatomy), Greg Daniels (The Office, Parks And Recreation), Alan Ball (True Blood) and Katie Jacobs (House, M.D.), and Jenji Kohan (Weeds) including this one, where the producers share how they really feel about anyone who dares to spoil any part of their shows. They start out talking about the network promo departments and then get into fans on the internet, and their hostility shows, so it’s kind of funny. Unannounced spoilers ARE bad, but remember guys, WE MADE YOU.

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote an open letter to The Office, explaining that while the show was great and funny, someone, or possibly a group of people, had taken one too many Whoops pills before the casting session, because the character of Kevin is both hammy, unfunny, unrealistic, and annoying. Unlike the rest of the cast and characters, Brian Baumgartner talks in a funny voice, makes intentionally stupid faces, and just generally sucks the enjoyment out of any scene he’s in. While all of that is true, and has been true for some time, last night’s season finale seemed to want to make my point for me.
