i know!! even Spielberg's bad ideas, barring The Terminal, don't seem to set any kind of precedent for this.

but i thought this was diablo's idea (i like just using her first name, as in she's diabolical) ..and SS just got it greenlit? it would seem so backwards that this is his idea, and he got her to do the writing. that makes no sense... where did you read it was his?

if you got rid of all the stale pop culture references / cheap insults / hyper-hipster speak / scenes featuring people dancing to the Kills...an entire episode would last 3 minutes. but it is fascinating, in its own bad way. also, Rosemary Dewitt seems really oddly placed here

United States of Tara is an American comedy-drama television series on the Showtime Network starring Toni Collette. Created by Steven Spielberg and developed by Juno's Academy Award-winning screenwriter, Diablo Cody, the 13-episode series follows the life of a housewife with dissociative identity disorder. It premiered on January 18, 2009. The pilot, written by Diablo Cody and directed by Craig Gillespie, has been made available for viewing on Showtime's official website.

United States of Tara has been the subject of a massive publicity campaign rivalling any new arrival on network television this minimized mid-season, partly because it arrives with the big-screen imprimatur of Steven Spielberg, who created the premise and serves as Tara's executive producer, and the hot Hollywood newcomer Diablo Cody, winner of last year's best original screenplay Oscar for the film Juno. The godfather of modern-day cinema meets the new princess of dysfunctional family dialogue.

why would it seem 'backwards'? spielbergs not a writer

Spielberg also "created" Freakazoid and Boom Blox - I'm really kind of skeptical whenever he does that kind of thing now.

Hardwicke's career didn't seem to survive Twilight
