‘Veep’ and ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ were the big winners on the TV side.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In keeping with the current mood of Hollywood\u2019s creative community, the 2018 Writers Guild of America West Awards was largely focused on rewarding projects that flexed the power of using a voice to either shed light and understanding on subjects too long dismissed, ignored or marginalized, or to critique, satirize or allegorize unjust social conditions or political agendas.<\/p>\n

The proudly defiant sentiment resulted in big wins for perspective-rich projects such as\u00a0Get Out<\/em>\u00a0(original screenplay)\u00a0Call Me by Your Name<\/em>\u00a0(adapted screenplay),\u00a0The Handmaid\u2019s Tale<\/em>\u00a0(drama series and new series),\u00a0Veep<\/em>\u00a0(comedy series), Flint (original longform program),\u00a0Big Little Lies<\/em>\u00a0(adapted longform Program),\u00a0Last Week Tonight With John Oliver<\/em>(comedy\/variety talk series) and\u00a0Saturday Night Live<\/em>\u00a0(comedy\/variety sketch series)<\/p>\n

Along the way, there was plenty of both playful and pointed jabs at the rapidly changing entertainment industry itself, beginning with L.A. host Patton Oswalt\u2019s opening line to the assembled screenwriters, producers, directors and actors in the Beverly Hilton Hotel\u2019s International Ballroom, in a nod to the current wave of corporate mega-consolidation: \u201cGood evening, fellow Disney employees.\u201d (The WGA Awards were handed out Sunday night at simultaneous ceremonies in New York and Los Angeles.)<\/p>\n

Oswalt also pointed out that from his reckoning it was the 2008 writers strike that led producers \u201cwho had to make their alimony payments\u201d to desperately scramble to seek out no-scripted content including\u00a0The Apprentice<\/em>,\u201d the reality competition series that made a household name and \u201claunched the unchecked ascent\u201d of President Trump.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe best way to make comedy without writers was to point cameras at assholes,\u201d Oswalt noted. \u201cThe next time you think of taking away writers\u2019 jobs and developing a show without a true scribe, I want you to imagine one thing.\u2026 President Theodore Nugent. And never fuck with writers again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Later in the show, Oswalt welcomed California\u2019s U.S. Congressman Adam Schiff, who\u2019s made headlines of late battling for declassification of the Democratic rebuttal to the infamous Republican-crafted memo claiming FBI surveillance abuses, thus far stymied by Trump.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdam has written the hottest spec script in town. And he can\u2019t get his boss to read it,\u201d quipped Oswalt.<\/p>\n

WGA West president David A. Goodman also didn\u2019t shy away from hot topics in his remarks, pledging to throw the guild\u2019s support firmly behind battling sexual harassment, and adding, self-reflectively, that \u201cI\u2019m tired of the president of the WGA being a white Jewish male.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI ran for this position unopposed \u2014 I\u2019m not beloved,\u201d noted Goodman. \u201cIf you\u2019re tired of being led by a guy who sounds like Ray Romano and looks like the guy from the Subway commercials, get involved, stay involved and lead.\u201d<\/p>\n

Comedienne Kathy Griffin, appearing as a presenter, also added an element of danger to the proceedings with a lengthy preamble that left some in the crowd squirming and some cheering: nine months after experiencing a powerful backlash and loss of work after posting a photo of herself with a simulated decapitated head of Trump on social media, Griffin led with faux-thanking \u201call the powerful writers and showrunners in this room for fucking no support. Where the fuck have you been? I was supposed to thank everyone for their support \u2014 no one\u2019s lifted a finger.\u201d<\/p>\n

Griffin also decried the fact that her writing has been limited to \u201cshitty, low budget cable my whole career,\u201d due to, in her view, her gender and her age, and pointed out that she also holds records for writing more stand-up comedy specials \u2014 23 \u2014 than anyone else, male or female, but none of them were union. \u201cI hope that we can bridge that gap,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want you to learn from my experience, because if you think it can\u2019t happen to you, it can, and it can happen like that,\u201d she said with the snap of a finger. \u201cYou may have hated that photo, and that\u2019s OK, but if one of your 12-year-old kids puts it on Twitter, they shouldn\u2019t have to be under a two-month federal investigation, be on the no-fly list, be on the Interpol list.\u201d<\/p>\n

In New York, host Amber Ruffin (Late Night With Seth Meyers<\/em>) made sure to emphasize what she told\u00a0The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>\u00a0ahead of the ceremony would be her theme for the evening: diversity.<\/p>\n

“If you thought that there has been too much focus on minorities and women these past few months, then you are about to have a bad time,” Ruffin said shortly into her opening monologue. “Because all night long I’m gonna be like, ‘Lady, lady, lady, black, black, black….'”<\/p>\n

Indeed, most of her subsequent jokes were about the state of black women in Hollywood, touching on the wave of sexual misconduct allegations that have rocked the entertainment industry over the past few months.<\/p>\n

“This year has been a confusing year to work in entertainment. Men have had to adjust to a world in which sexual harassment is no longer tolerated and women have had to adjust to a world where people believe us,” Ruffin said.<\/p>\n

Later in her monologue, she took a moment to applaud Meyers for making her the first black woman to write on a network talk show, calling Meyers “the first woke late-night host.” That said, she insisted that Robin Thede, also in attendance, would be the “most woke late-night host.” And she invited Thede, Meyers and fellow late-night hosts Jordan Klepper and John Oliver to do body rolls. But she had a different message for L.A.-based late-night host Bill Maher, instructing him to “Go fuck yourself.” Later when Maher’s writers’ names came up as Thede was reading the nominees for best comedy\/variety talk series, the audience audibly booed.<\/p>\n

Ruffin, who’s known for participating in\u00a0Late Night<\/em>‘s “Jokes Seth Can’t Tell” segment, then launched into her own version of the concept, singing about risque jokes that she “shouldn’t tell,” even though, she said, she’d likely be forgiven as a black woman.<\/p>\n

Such jokes: “Black-ish<\/em>, what the water is still like in Flint, Mich….\u00a0Dunkirk<\/em>\u00a0has come under fire for having too many white men, or as it’s commonly known, a writers room…. People were shocked there was no nomination for the movie\u00a0Girls Trip<\/em>. Next year’s sequel is sure to win:\u00a0Girls Trip 2: We’re Slaves This Time<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

Later in New York, Tracy Morgan and Rachel Dratch helped the WGA East honor Tina Fey and Robert Carlock (Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt<\/em>) with the Herb Sargent Award for Comedy Excellence.<\/p>\n

Morgan, who claimed to be a classically trained thespian until Dratch insisted he didn’t need to pretend to be someone he’s not just to impress a room full of writers, said of the pair, “Anyone who’s ever trusted them has not been disappointed. I know I haven’t. It’s been one of the best relationships of my life. They’ll do anything for you. Although they won’t give you a kidney. I know. I’ve asked them many times.”<\/p>\n

In all seriousness, though, Morgan said of his two colleagues and friends, “I think I speak for a lot of folks out there when I say that it’s not only been a pleasure to say their words, but to be around their genius. I love them so much. Robert came to see me after the accident and Tina did, too, and I love you for that. Thank you so much. That meant a lot to me.”<\/p>\n

And then, paraphrasing one of his\u00a030 Rock<\/em>\u00a0character Tracy Jordan’s famous catchphrases, Morgan joked, “I love you so much, I want to take you out back behind a middle school and get you pregnant.”<\/p>\n

Dratch summarized the pair’s impressive comedy history, separately writing some of\u00a0SNL<\/em>‘s<\/span>\u00a0most memorable sketches, working together on “Weekend Update,” running\u00a030 Rock<\/em>, creating\u00a0Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt<\/em>\u00a0and, she joked, their lesser-known feat of crafting “a line of very flammable athleisure wear for JC Penney.”<\/p>\n

\n

Of Fey, Dratch said, “Your brain is a magic joke machine, the likes of which, I’ve never witnessed.\u2026 When I think of you I think how everything you touch turns to comedy gold. And that is true, but that would give the impression that all you do is touch and it is actually your hard work, your amazing brain \u2014 and I’m sure here you would make some amazing German work ethic reference, but I’ll need you to punch this up before air…. Together they have created their own sitcom language, a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it rapid-fire rhythm, where the throwaway line is as funny as the joke you were supposed to hear. The surreal is allowed to live in the same space as the real with Tina and Robert in the sitcom world. They’ve combined their comedy forces into something wonderful and unique. When you put Carlock and Fey together you’re going to get a heady mix of sharks, robots and feminism and genuine heart.”<\/p>\n

Fey and Carlock were also praised, via video, by Jon Hamm, Lorne Michaels, Alec Baldwin and Kay Cannon. When they took the stage, they said their requisite thank-yous and also expressed their gratitude to one another.<\/p>\n

“I can’t believe how lucky I am to get to spend [Fey’s] good will to write nonsense and my stupid ideas because she’s the one who gets attacked every time, which just works so great for me,” Carlock said, jokingly. “It’s just remarkable that I am fortunate enough to be her partner. And I get to work with and for her, which just makes me so lucky.”<\/p>\n

And Fey praised Carlock for being one of the few good men in Hollywood, a rare feat after months of disturbing allegations about powerful figures in the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n

“If you have a meeting with Robert, when you get there, he will never be just getting out of the shower,” Fey said. “You’re safe. That is just how low the bar is now. That’s why we’re getting this award, because we never made anyone who worked for us look at our genitals.”<\/p>\n

Back in L.A., Jordan Peele accepted the best original screenplay award for\u00a0Get Out.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIf I was really afraid of white people, this would be the scariest moment of my life,\u201d he cracked as he surveyed the crowd from the stage, then grew sincere. \u201cI think this means so much because writers know how fucking hard it is to write something. This was a passion project. It was something that I put my love into, I put my soul into.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recalling the long road to getting the film made \u2014 it was first conceived in 2008 and once included a scene in which the black protagonist was tortured by his white captors by being forced to listen to James Taylor\u2019s \u201cYou\u2019ve Got a Friend\u201d over and over again \u2014 Peele offered encouragement to his colleagues: \u201cTo everyone in this room that is a writer, keep taking chances, take big risks, put your love into it,\u201d he said. \u201cIt does pay off. It can take a long time, but our voices really do matter.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI just wanted to go and make a film in Italy again,\u201d marveled James Ivory while accepting the adapted screenplay honor for\u00a0Call Me by Your Name<\/em>. But Ivory has proved to be a much-admired figure, an accomplished director turned screenwriter who at 89 is still delivering vital, challenging work. \u201cI\u2019ve never undertaken a complete screenplay on my own, in all the years that I was directing film, so I\u2019m moved by your enthusiasm and this award.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is nothing as special to me at the writers\u2019 room \u2014 it\u2019s the happiest place I know,\u201d said\u00a0The Handmaid\u2019s Tale\u00a0<\/em>executive producer Bruce Miller while accepting the series\u2019 first award of the evening for drama series. He also praised Margaret Atwood, whose 1985 dystopian novel provided the basis for the series \u2014 \u201cShe is the mother of us all\u201d \u2014 and to star Elisabeth Moss, \u201cwho makes us all look good.\u201d<\/p>\n

Upon receipt of the series\u2019 second award, for best new series, Miller revealed that \u201cwhen I first got this project, a thought went through my head, and people have asked me since then: \u2018Who do you think you are, adapting a Margaret Atwood book and being one penis over the limit for that project?\u2019 But I think the only answer I could come up with is I\u2019m a writer \u2014 that\u2019s what we do. We try to get into our heads and other people\u2019s heads and tell their story as true as possible.”<\/p>\n

After collecting the adapted longform award for\u00a0Big Little Lies,<\/em>\u00a0David E. Kelley paid tribute to his wife of 25 years, actress Michelle Pfeiffer, \u201cwho has always inspired me to be better than.\u201d He also recalled his first job working for early collaborator Steven Bochco and \u201cthe sense of exhilaration that I had being in a room full of writers. And truthfully, that has never left me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Veep<\/em>\u00a0showrunner David Mandel, accepting the comedy series award, quipped that star Julia Louis-Dreyfus, currently undergoing treatment to battle cancer, \u201cwasn\u2019t going to come [tonight] if she didn\u2019t have cancer either, because this is not televised,\u201d but hoped the win would brighten her during her treatments. He also promised that once the actress had recovered the series would promptly resume production in August of 2018. \u201cWe have so much great stuff planned: Selena has sex with a porn star, one of the people working for Selena beats the crap out of his wife \u2014 a lot of really cutting-edge comedy!\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the special honorees who were feted by the WGA West in Los Angeles are\u00a0The Post<\/em>writers Liz Hannah and Josh Singer with the Paul Selvin Award;\u00a0Milk<\/em>\u00a0writer Dustin Lance Black with the Valentine Davies Award for his work for the LGBTQ community;\u00a0Mary Tyler Moore\u00a0<\/em>show co-creator James L. Brooks with the Laurel Award for Screenwriting Achievement; writer-producer Alison Cross (Roe vs. Wade, Murder in the First<\/em>) with the Paddy Chayefsky Laurel Award for Television Writing Achievement; and late comic-book icon Len Wein, co-creator of\u00a0Wolverine<\/em>, with the Animation Writers Caucus Animation Writing Award.<\/p>\n

In New York, the WGA East also honored Geoffrey Ward (The Vietnam War, The Roosevelts<\/em>) with the Ian McLellan Hunter Award for Career Achievement; and Hamilton Nolan (Splinter News\/Gizmodo Media Group) with the Richard B. Jablow Award for devoted service to the guild.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
