Happy Sunday, Soothers. I was minding my business the other day when in my friend Slack (so essential to my well-being these days) somebody shared this article about Shonda Rhimes and why she moved from ABC/Disney to Netflix.
The short version is this: She’d been in some tense negotiations with ABC overall, and one day was planning a trip to Disneyland. As part of her deal she had two all-inclusive passes to Disneyland. She requested one more for her sister so they could join her for the trip. They gave her a hard time about that apparently (like, why? but just wait…) but did it. But when the family arrived, the ticket didn’t work. Rhimes called an exec to get it sorted.
