Dean’s officially closed for picket lines and we will have a statement and lots of thanks to give, but tonight… we celebrate and/or sleep. Coincidentally, tomorrow it’s Olivier’s bday. BEST GIFT EVER! 🎉
Dean's started as a way to support ourselves and the WGA picket lines. Tonight, that strike ends!! As a writer and support staff, I'm too happy for words.
But we will be out there to support SAG while they await the deal they deserve . See you tomorrow at Amazon! 🩵
We could not be more THRILLEDDDDD for the WGA, PreWGA writers, Support Staff and everyone in the industry!!! One down, one more to go 🫶🩵 May SAG-AFTRA get the deal it deserves sooner than later!! We will be out there until they do!
In honor of the

I truly take no pleasure in this. As the lot coordinator at TV City where you film I promise we will keep the picket lines robust and constant. Bringing your show back only helps to prolong the strike and hurts everyone.
