Ed’s the best. Hope they do right by him! He deserves it.
Too easy!
Known Ed since the old stand-up comedy days. One of the quality people in the business — as a writer, and as a man. Just never play him ping pong for money when you’re drunk.
A really funny dude, great on the page and a total mensch. Guys like Ed are few and far between in this godawful hellhole of a business.
Old man signs with shitty agent! Breaking!
Bitter aspiring PA continues to be annoyed he can’t land a rep. Original!
Ed is a great guy, smart, hilarious and a pleasure to work with. He deserves the best.
ICM must be tanking bigtime!
Who the fuck invited APA? A phrase that rings true and will continue to haunt them. Why would any writer sign with them. They are all about crappy reality stars.
When Ed saw this news hit the wire I had just separated my shoulder using a Costco towel as a sail, riding on a skateboard in a 30 MPH wind ,in empty indian casino parking lot. I will always remember that night as the start of something great. He should still have a show on the air. (ouch)
