STS Ch-83
“That was a fan-fucking-tastic movie, Noah.” Frank hugged me tightly and patted my back with gusto, as if telling me he was proud of me without actually saying it. “The changes you made to the film to give it a Valentine's theme were really commendable.” I chuckled when he released me. “Actually, those changes were suggested by Universal. I liked them, and they weren't too much of a hassle, so I agreed to do some reshoots. Had I not agreed to go back to Harvard to continue my education, I…- 297.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-101
Doug and I went back as far as my first film. He was the one who wrote the atrocity that was . While the film was terrible, he inspired me to start writing my own scripts. He even took my first script, , to Columbia and got Paul Brickman involved in the process. Sure, Paul and I didn’t get along, but I had no beef with Doug. In fact, I owed him for essentially making my Hollywood career. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have written or any of my other scripts. “Why does Doug want to get in…- 297.0 K • Ongoing

“What the fuck happened to you?” David Crane didn’t bother with a greeting as soon as I stepped into the office he shared with Marta Kauffman. Both of them were in their mid-to-late thirties. David’s receding hairline exaggerated his already large forehead, and his glasses kept sliding down his nose. Marta sat beside him, a beautiful, homely woman with kind eyes and a fuller figure that gave her a comforting presence. “What do you mean, exactly?” I asked, genuinely confused. Then I…- 31.2 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-376
“I have a counter-question for you,” Troy replied immediately, without an ounce of worry in his voice. “If I were to play a gay character tomorrow, would it also be considered hypocritical because I’m not gay in real life?” “Of course,” the woman retorted. “A gay actor would bring more authenticity to such a story.” “By that logic, I’m also not a homicidal maniac, so I shouldn’t play the Joker. Do you know an unhinged person like him we could cast in the next Batman movie?…- 1.1 M • Ongoing

STS Ch-102
“I have news, son.” “Please tell me you’re not dying,” I almost pleaded. He snorted in amusement before shaking his head. “I’m not dying. God will personally have to come down to Earth to take me before my time. Don’t you worry about that.” I sagged slightly in relief. “Then what’s the news?” “I’m getting married.” I stared at him in disbelief for two minutes, having no idea what to say. Dad seemed to like the silence, because he indulged himself in the beer…- 297.0 K • Ongoing

“Fuck!” I slammed my hands down on the steering wheel, the horn blaring loudly and making a man on the sidewalk in front of my car jump in surprise. He shot me an angry glare, but I ignored him and leaned back in my seat, staring at nothing. Everything had gone wrong. I’d come all the way back to the day I regretted the most, only to realize that regret itself had been a lie. Nothing I did would magically land me a role in Friends. Not like this. Not with reality stacked so firmly against…- 31.2 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-104
“You can’t be serious!” “I absolutely am,” Sidney Sheinberg, the president and CEO of Universal Pictures, said, folding his arms across his chest to drive the point home. “I want you as one of the leads in , in the role of Jeff Spicoli, but I also want you in the director’s chair.” I turned my head to glance at Claudia, who seemed just as surprised by the request as I was. “You never once mentioned this to me, Sid,” she said, her displeasure evident on her face. “Had you told…- 297.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-78
I woke up after what felt like a very long, deep sleep. Yesterday’s run-in with a future superstar had left me reeling. Would he even become a superstar now that I had taken for myself? Even though I was exhausted, my brain was working overtime, thinking about Tom Cruise and the implications of taking one of his iconic roles. Should I feel some sort of guilt for taking the role away from him? I didn’t. Every film I’d done until now, whether it was or , had originally gone to someone else. By…- 297.0 K • Ongoing

I took a deep breath, closed my eyes to center myself, then finally opened them. I focused entirely on the girl standing beside me, keeping my face deliberately cold. “Please don’t go. I love you, Cal,” she begged as she stepped closer and reached for my hand. At least she tried to. I yanked my hand away and shot her a loathing glare. “I don’t. In fact, I fucking hate you,” I almost spat. “I never loved you.” She stumbled back, horrified. “Then why did you say otherwise for…- 31.2 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-378
“Yes!” I shouted as I hugged Evan tightly. “Much more deserved than my award!” “Thanks, Troy,” Evan whispered back in my ear before separating and embracing Jonathan next. Seeing those two together after all these years was still a surprise even to me. From what I knew, they were mostly in an open relationship, and such relationships rarely lasted this long, whether for straight couples or gays. After exchanging hugs with most of the cast, Evan finally walked onto the stage and…- 1.1 M • Ongoing
