How Did Women Pilot Writers Fare For 2012?
I’ve confirmed that this tell-all video truly was made by Gavin Polone’s New York assistant. “Sadly, it isn’t altogether untrue,” Polone (Prince Of Darkness Is Suing Yet Again…) tells me. “People seem to like it. Maybe it will inspire an HBO series about me?” I’d watch that show but it’s already on the air. It’s called Entourage.
Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.

I’m crying from laughing so hard!! This video is genius and if you didn’t find it funny, clearly you’re not an assistant in this town! So glad Gavin has a sense of humor about himself!
The guy must do *some* work, considering his ridiculously long credits list…

Memo to DH: “target=_blank”
Look it up.
Yeah that seems about right….
Looks like April won’t be eating lunch in this town again.
Sadly, I’ve known producers like this, or worse, and they continue on…
Hilarious
I would fire her for “making” such a boring video.
What a gem! I wish they had this technology when I was working for a certain producer who also can’t get enough of the gym and had a passion for nudie magazines in his top drawer.
That’s the funniest thing i’ve ever seen. Pure genius…
Welcome to Hollywood, assistant.
absolute truth
Inside joke people – that asst still works for him. He’s laughing just as much as you are.
Everyone, copy paste and repeat:
“I love Gavin. He has balls, and personality, and doesn’t let people walk all over him. Gavin always comes out on top.”
Absolutely true… gavin had the balls to go out in the world and actually make it on his own, with his own company… unlike so many others who tried and failed, and if they’re lucky, end up working at crappy jobs or mid-level agencies fighting for scraps. Gavin certainly has balls… and his credits and net worth prove that he comes out on top!… and come on, anyone who knows him knows he’s hilarious and has personality!
There is a reason the assistant is STILL an assistant. If this is her best work – I think she needs a new day job.
The perfect capper to this video is that it’s done with xtranormal, the motto of which is:
“If you can type, you can make movies.”
Heck-fire, xtra, it should be clear by now that even people who can’t type — or comport themselves as if they were a part of civil society — can make movies. Well, at least they THINK they can make movies . . .
HBO could do a show on Gavin but they’d have to change the name from “Entourage” to “Asshole”
Gavin is one of the strangest most solitary alone depressing people ever…he hates that the world isnt as smart as he is, and he constantly remind us all of that through angry outbursts, but the guy is absolutely miserable. If hes this depressed and angry after the clean eating, and endorphin starved excersize regiment and who knows how many medications, i have to question his definition of smart.
And yes, what a dork. Its like Weird Al learned kung fu and roided out.
I know they have an online awards and this is better then the Last Airbender on point and funny with a story plot line and a great third act.
F being an assistant you can run the studio.
As an earlier poster noted, the assistant is still working for Gavin. They’re just having some fun and all of you wishing that Gavin got his comeuppance…well, keep rubbing your lucky rabbit’s foot.
Gavin may be an ass, but when people like Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David like you and work with you, it doesn’t really matter. Remember all the rhetoric people spewed towards him during the Writer’s Strike? He was right.
This is AMAZING. Thank you, Nikki Finke. And for anyone wondering, YES, it is pretty dead on true… Love it…. The ex-Pariah’s are just LOVING this….
Wow, what’s with all the attacking? This was just made as a joke, not for the approval of a bunch of bitter, I just got off the phone with the Assistant of the Manager of Current at WB (wait, the Manager doesn’t have an assistant, then who answered the phone? ohhhhh) who said they’d read my ground-breaking 2 1/2 Men with 14 swing sets spec. Sorry, if you know GP, it’s kinda funny. Get over yourselves. And Charlie WOULDN’T say that, or he already did, so go finish your The Middle spec.
Maybe funnier, Bobby’s post about The Waffle. That’s the kind of funny, random bitterness worth appreciating.
This is AWESOME!!! I like Gavin Palone even more now!!!! Go Gavin! Get Berkus. Get them all.
if you have ever had a truly terrible boss – this is offensive.
Everyone’s hating on Gavin, but I’d bet most of you have never spoken to him or met him. I don’t know how he deals with everyone, but he’s always been honest and treated myself and my employees with respect. More than I can say for some of his former employers. I actually like the guy, he’s funny, outgoing, and a smart guy. He’s extremely successful, in both the feature (Zombieland, Panic Room, Secret Window) and television (Curb your Enthusiasm, My Boys, Gilmore Girlsm) world… He’s become far more successful than most in this industry, and as always, when someone becomes successful, people get jealous… Anyway, this video was retarded… definitely had some funny moments… But if that were my assistant, I’d fire her in a heartbeat, tell her to quit her bitching and entitled bs and go back to school to find another career. She should be grateful she isn’t working for Weinstein or Rudin, they’d have thrown her down a flight of stairs by now.
