New writer's blog: Earl Pomerantz

Veteran television comedy writer Earl Pomerantz (Mary Tyler Moore Show, Taxi, among many other fine credits) is now doing his own blog, and it''s a must=read.

Good timing, because on the spur of the moment I bought Season 2 of Taxi the other day at Amoeba Records, great to have around for those slow evenings, during bouts of insomnia or procrastination. And Mr. Pomerantz relates an anecdote about writing for that show and working for Ed. Weinberger. (And the revelation that Tony Banta was original an Irish boxer named Ryan.)
