\u201cSurvivor\u2019s Remorse\u201d is more than just another sports-related sitcom. For one thing, it\u2019s as much a smart, character-driven drama as it is a comedy. For another, it\u2019s one of the best written shows on TV.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The show was created by Mike O\u2019Malley, whom many viewers probably know as the actor who played Kurt Hummel\u2019s dad on \u201cGlee.\u201d But in his other life, he\u2019s a prodigiously gifted TV writer, so much so that it\u2019s worth paying attention to any show he\u2019s created or written.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Happy!<\/p>\n
When I was out in Los Angeles for the film-shoot, I hung out at the Survivor’s Remorse<\/i> offices in West Hollywood. We had the first reading of my script in a spare conference room at those offices. I got to meet the writing staff (my talented brother Brendan is on the writing staff!) and the producers, and also the amazing guys who work the front desk. So nice. It was great to see Mike in his element. They were all insanely busy getting ready for Season 2, which they shot in the spring (in Atlanta). It’s so cool to see it all come together, to get these first words on the upcoming season, the sneak peeks, the rave reviews. Not that I’m surprised, but still: it’s thrilling. <\/p>\n
