@joanday this brings me back to those @stormofswansons days

an actual look at the inevitable moment in season 8 when jaime sees tormund hitting on brienne with his own two eyes and melts down as a person

what does he want with brienne, anyway?

she dresses funny, she listens to the starks, she’s not even cute … in a conventional way

i mean, she’s just like this … nerd who hangs around the girls she swore to protect all the time, and she’s too tall. i couldn’t take her anywhere.

what am i stressed about? this is, like, BRIENNE.

okay, okay, so she’s kind of a betty. but what would she want with tormund? he couldn’t make her happy. brienne needs someone who respects her; someone to listen to her naive but weirdly uplifting speeches about doing the right thing; someone to laugh at her jokes … in case she ever makes any.

then suddenly …

Tom: Also, sorry about your Grandpa. Jean-Ralphio: No worries, he was a dick.

Others are saying what I’m feeling much more eloquently than I ever could. But let me say this, Park and Rec has been a constant positive force in my life for a long time. It’s gotten me through a lot. Has always made me laugh. It also taught me a lot about the type of person I want to become. To say I’m sad to see it end doesn’t even begin to cover it. Leslie, Ann, Donna, April, Ron, Ben, Andy, Tom, Chris, Craig, and Jerry, thank you. Thank you for everything.

The only time I ever yelled at anyone in the Parks and Rec writers room, I yelled at Harris. The argument was over the loose ethics of reality TV, and while the details of the fight now seem impossibly unimportant, at the time I was truly upset. I don’t remember the argument very well. I do remember that about four minutes later, I had my arms around him, hugging him and refusing to let go as he giggled and said, in his peculiar, nasal, slight-Texan drawl, “All right, well, I guess the argument is over.”

I loved hugging Harris because he was basically a human teddy bear. I also loved writing with him and hearing him tell stories and listening to him try to defend an indefensible position about something he hadn’t thought through — at all — but had decided to argue anyway. (He once confidently declared that the Silversun Pickups would’ve been as good as The Beatles had they lived in Liverpool in the early 1960s. His evidence for this amounted to: “Because, think about it.”)

I even kind of loved yelling at him because he could be utterly infuriating. Once he asked me if he could leave work several hours early to see a Phish concert in Long Beach. It should be noted that: (A) He had seen more than 75 Phish concerts at that point, and (B) He asked me on the day he turned in an outline, meaning that the next step was for him to work all day with the entire writing staff. Which is hard to do when you’re at a Phish concert.

I told him I didn’t think that would be possible. He then copied and emailed to me, without irony, the dictionary definition of “religion.” Because Phish was his religion, you see, and I, by implication, was persecuting him. I was stunned. I was, honestly, furious. And then it made me laugh. Because he always made me laugh.

I loved trying (in vain) to figure out how his brain worked. I loved making fun of him for his insane eating habits. I loved watching him do stand-up and listening to him on podcasts and hearing him lazily pitch brilliant jokes while laying half-asleep (sometimes actually asleep) on our writers room couches. I loved knowing him. And I will miss him every day.

The Parks And Recreation finale will pay tribute to Harris Wittels

Among his many comedic accomplishments, one of late comedian Harris Wittels’ most high-profile gigs was serving as executive producer on Parks And Recreation. (He also wrote several key episodes and played Harris The Animal Control Guy on the show.) And considering the Parks And Rec crew’s reputation as one big happy, huggy family is well established, it’s no surprise—but still quite nice—that the show is planning a special tribute to Wittels at the end of its series finale. Described by Deadline as “a We Love You, Harris message” from the cast and crew, the tribute should bring the Parks And Rec finale to heretofore unimaginable levels of emotion. Be sure to have tissues ready when the hourlong series finale of Parks And Recreation airs on NBC tomorrow night.
