TV Squad Daily with Brigitte - VIDEO

Well, and I don’t know where you got that number, but it’s an outright lie. Keep in mind that the numbers thrown around in this discussion are bare minimum numbers. Pretty much any writer with a reputation of some kind will have their own contract which will dictate how much they make in residuals and I guarantee you it won’t be $.04 per DVD (the equivalent would be to assume Tom Cruise is making the same amount of money as the extras in his film)

I’m really not on a side here because I can see the greed on both sides of this discussion but I think most TV fans have just chosen to side with the writers not matter what which is unfair (the writers asking for a percentage of the gross instead of the net profit for example is ridiculous). The truth is, as in almost every negotiation, both sides are being too rigid right now.

You could have easily purchased multiple pumpkins and kept the "replacements" in a cryogenic state in your freezer. At any moment you could thaw and replace the current decaying Penrod, with a new one.

We are not fooled! It is pumpkinly impossible to survive that long off the vine.

Hey, let's look on the bright side: if Sutherland's in jail, he can't be working on that god-awful, lame excuse for a TV drama.

Bring on the Dashing Pumpkin!

Interesting tidbit about the writer's strike. What's the biggest movie franchise of the last ten years? The Pirates of the Carribean trilogy.

If the last installment DVD, which was just released, sells in similar numbers to the second installment, it will make five million dollars in its first day alone.

How much can the two writers, A-list if ever there was such a thing for writers, expect in residuals? They get to split less than $7,000 between them under the current WGA contract.

Why must we assume that the Penrod shots are fresh? I know how to add a hash mark, change my shirt, take a picture, and repeat. I do that with most my produce.

The reason that he chose to go to jail right away is probably threefold:

1) Family Honour: Keifer has a BIG family reputation to live up to. He is the grandson of the man the Canadian people voted The Greatest Canadian of all time. His grandfather, Tommy Douglas ( http://archives.cbc.ca/400d.asp?id=1-74-1455-9609 ), was voted in for is social and political record over Alexander Graham Bell, Jonas Salk (polio vaccine), Fredrik Banting (Insulin), Terry Fox (Famous Cancer Fundraiser), Lester B. Pearson (Prime Minsister and Nobel Prize Winner). His grandfather won hands down.

His mother is also a actress and tireless campaigner for medicare and social programs.

Donald Sutherland is also one heck of an icon to have to live up to.

2) Publicity: It will look realy good if the press start showing him enjoying his holidays with his family and they turn that around to make it look like he is getting preferential treatment.

3) Appearently he felt so bad about it because he thought he was practically sober and just tired, that he pleaded no contest AGAINST his lawyer's advice and actually may have to pay a penalty agaist some of the people managing the publicity for his career.

Well my conspiracy theory has been put in its place.

Dear Santa,
Please bring me Brigitte Dale for Christmas. I have been good all year long and the lumps of coal I always get are no longer eco-friendly... I promise to feed her (fresh fruit & veggies) every day and take good care of her always. Thats all I want! You are the only one who knows where we both live so see what you can do. Thank You!
Yours Truely,
Seanie :)

p.s You do have e-mail at the North Pole right?
You have my address.

I don't actually believe that Brigitte is tricking us, but, that view of the snow proves nothing since Brigitte was not in the shot, she could have easily clipped that in from some other time or place.
However after long hours of forensic scientifical investigation, and comparing previous TVSD clips containing Penrod, I have evidence to prove that this is in fact the original pumpkin. Also as a side note I have discovered that Penrod's Mediclorian count is roughly twelve times that of a normal pumpkin.

you could just go to amazon.com or some other online shopping site and order pumpkins! gotcha!
