Oh Derek don’t get your panties in a bunch... it was an April Fools! You know-the kinda day you must have everyday... and I’m going on an EasterEgg hunt... starts at 3 on our island- thanks for concern mate!!! Lost your job again?
Lorne Michaels. There was an interview with a certain out gay comic who does impressions about it. I think it was during SWSX. Can't remember where but it could've been the Daily Beast.
Yeah-living in Paradise is awful. I would rather be tagging luggage in the tundra like you ,son... oh wait...*when you’re actually employed/before you get fired
@John He hired Matt Bomer as well and NPH guested on Glee’s first season. Also... ugh, brain is not giving me the name right now. The guy who played Jesse on Glee. Lea Michele’s old Broadway friend. Also started in Frozen. Dated Zachary Quinto for a while.
Donna-or Derek Harvey as we all who have been here for a while-know unfortunately that he was born on the wrong side of the bed... nasty nasty piece of work...he’s been masquerading as an alias (or more a long time) because he shamed himself off the site with his behavior and abuse..... this is nothing. Wait till he really gets goingππππ»
Yeah you really come across as a happy and productive member of society. Anyone that makes-up as many assumptions as you do and BRAGS about wonderful they are has serious issues. And is a complete asshole.
Actually, she DOES come off as a happy and productive member of society. I think you're the only one who says otherwise. Speaking of functioning member of society, did you find a job yet derek?

Thanks Rosieππ»can’t expect he’d know what it is to be one... or what it looks like-so we should kinda take pity-AGAIN.(till his next verbal nuclear attack followed by his drunken apologetic ramblingsππ
There haven't been any out cast members on SNL since the 80s. In a recent interview, Alec Baldwin talked about how there's been many closeted cast members.
They advertised Kate being gay before she even debuted. He might not have known when he hired her, but he never tried to push her in the closet. She was clearly considered a breakout performer early in her tenure.
Do you get equally outraged over people in Hollywood blacklisting anyone who espouses conservative viewpoints? Or are you one of those with only selective outrage?
Not from "your" end, Tricia? Then stop commenting nonsense on my posts, idiot. I thought you had a family-fun day or whatever-and yet you still can't resist. Sad and strange. My e-mail alerts keep popping up with YOUR stupid unwarranted replies. She can't ignore me, if she is the one antagonizing me-she's a crazy woman with no life. Boo Hearne was right about you! There is something seriously off and dark-sided about your "life".

It makes no sense for it to be Kate McKinnon. Her major credit before SNL was The Big Gay Sketch Show. She's been out from the start of her career so for Lorne not to have known would have been pretty strange.
OMG, I forgot about that! Even without that, I totally agree. He has always seemed fair and generous about promoting Kate, despite his reputation for occasionally bedding his talent. Promoting a lesbian actually helps both of their reputations.
WOW! Tricia took the gloves off. Good for you, sweetie. I lambasted him here once and everybody jumped on me. I guess you're the only one we're allowed to rag on? Glad to see you standing up to that disgusting prick.
One can only endure idiocy and arrogance (unjustified,the worst kind)... for so long. The kit gloves have been on because I grew with something called class -despite what he put me through on this site-I maintained it. That’s how I sleep at night.
Archive what what you need(I won’t go back there) but people here know what’s up. Let’s see Dereck put his balls back on and admit who he is /what he’s done here- Or has it transitioned???
Lorne Michaels doesn't make sense for this because Terry Sweeney was on the show for a number of seasons and he was so openly gay you could tell from a mile out.
I tend to just lurk, but the proportionality and aggressiveness of the attacks seems to be leaning towards Tricia 13.
The two of you were why I stopped reading CDAN years ago. But at that time, didn’t Tricia have a crush on Hiddleston and was going to stalk him when he was filming in Canada? Either I have the name wrong or Tricia has a new backstory.
Frankly, I don’t give a rat’s ass, I simply wish they’d both go at it privately.
BTW, @Geeljire, Robert Smigel is a great, humble guy.
I see it, Tricia. He clearly has mental problems, how he comes and goes under different aliases just to trash you is a clear sign. I actually hope he gets help, and you protect yourself, seriously.
I kind of wish both Donna/Derek and Tricia could stop it. If one eggs the other on, IGNORE them. This constant back and forth doesn’t look good on either one of you. Guess what? You’re both good at the blinds. It’s not a competition, and you don’t both need to go out of your way to prove each other wrong and be catty. We’re all adults here, right?
Well that’s sounds nice(I’d not waaay oversimplified)- but being that I ignored so much for so long and could enjoy the sight again(apparently many others feel the same way if you take the time to read the comments); you can imagine I was less than thrilled to wake up and see someone posting as”DonnaMarie” calling me Trash-a and worse etc for no reason then deleting their comment the next dayblike a coward.... of you think it’s so easy to keep turning the cheek than why don’t you guess first or say something to piss it off and see how you like the attacks. It would also be nice if you for once would put accountability and blame where it belongs... do not include me with him in any way,respectfully....
If plot and I can largely coexist in CDAN comments Then it probably isn't worth your time to attack Tricia
@iknowpeople Robert Smigel was very influential on my sense of humor, giving me a place in time to point to and claim when "SNL was funny." Every generation has their own.
Can't be Lorne, McKinnon was on Logo before SNL, he knew she was gay when he hired her. Also, Paul Brittain I'm not sure if he came out before or after SNL. Def lack of openly gay representation on that show though.
@Tricia I'm a LONG LONG time reader/lurker.....work 9 to 5 so tend to catch up on this site in the evenings. I just wanted to add my voice to the chorus in support of you. Derek Harvey was/is a mess and he treated you appallingly. I'm embarrassed to admit I'm also from Toronto but please don't judge us all by his antics...most Canadians are just as polite as we are rumoured to be :)
Is dude salty because Tricia beats him to the punch all the time? Just because someone gets there 1st doesn't mean that you don't know the answer also. I'm new, but I'm always pleased when I guess and look down to see my guess alligns with Tricia, Sandybrook, couple of others. It's like, I kick ass at Jeopardy, but I'm not always able to scream my answer at the TV before the contestants are. Please don't pick on Sensei Tricia. She is a valuable resource.
And Copperbunny-I know! I have several good friends over years (even here in the Caribbean)that are Canadian. Can’t blame a vast lovely country for that train wreck π€·♀️To judge is to prove ones own ignorance.... ya know ... what he does consistently . Shout out to NA!
Copper bunny and Amy I appreciate that very muchππ»I’m still here kickin years later (and after his abuse) because the people /commentators on this site(no withstanding the obvious and his alias’), are amazing. I love being here and sharing stories ,hearing tales:)π₯

ReplyDeleteLost your job again?
Lorne Michaels. There was an interview with a certain out gay comic who does impressions about it. I think it was during SWSX. Can't remember where but it could've been the Daily Beast.
ReplyDeleteI agree with that or Larry David-a known douche/Seinfeld
DeleteThen in a Twitter war w/ A-Bald

ReplyDeleteYeah-living in Paradise is awful.

Except for Chris colfer does Ryan Murphy hire any openly gay male actors? Darren Criss and Matthew Morrison are both closet cases.
ReplyDelete@John He hired Matt Bomer as well and NPH guested on Glee’s first season. Also... ugh, brain is not giving me the name right now. The guy who played Jesse on Glee. Lea Michele’s old Broadway friend. Also started in Frozen. Dated Zachary Quinto for a while.
DeleteI HATE brain fog.
Anyway, him too.
Yeah, that's Jonathan Groff. He has also worked with Cheyenne Jackson and Colton Haynes on multiple shows.
DeleteOh and I forgot Ricky Martin, too.
DeleteDonna woke up on the wrong side of the bed in some sassy pants today. Happy Easter to you too.

ReplyDeleteProducer would be Scott Gimple. Actor could be Daniel Newman?
This is 100% Lorne Michaels. Not even a blind.
ReplyDeleteSNL Has A Problem With Casting Gay Men
Is there gonna be a dance-battle?! *tries to start a slow clap*
ReplyDeleteIt is absolutely not Scott Gimple. Among other things he does a live show with the openly gay Dave Holmes.
ReplyDeleteDef Lorne Michaels. Pissed about Kate McKinnon. He likes pretty young things.

Lorne Michaels doesn't make sense for this because Terry Sweeney was on the show for a number of seasons and he was so openly gay you could tell from a mile out.
