Did You Know?
| Trivia | In the Kate Winslet episode, she states the reason she's doing a movie about the Holocaust is because she'd been nominated for four Academy Awards and hadn't yet won, but doing a movie of this nature would guarantee her an Oscar. Four years later, after five nominations in total, she finally won the Oscar for Best Leading Actress, for her Holocaust based drama The Reader (2008). See more » |

Andy Millman:
What's happening with my script? Darren Lamb: What script? Andy Millman: [rolls eyes] The script I gave you two months ago. Darren Lamb: Is it funny? Andy Millman: You haven't read it? Darren Lamb: What's it called? Andy Millman: "When the Whistle Blows". Darren Lamb: [writing] "When the W Blows". Andy Millman: Don't just write "W" you'll forget what the W stands for. Darren Lamb: "When the Wind Blows". Andy Millman: "Whistle"! Darren Lamb: Got it. [writing] Darren Lamb: "W" equals "Wind". Andy Millman: "Whistle"! Darren Lamb: [writing] "When the Whistle Blows". Andy Millman: So that's done, I can forget about that, I've got my best man on it. Just make sure the phone's plugged in. Darren Lamb: You joke about it, it was uplugged for two days... no one noticed. See more » |
