The precision with which my friends give me gifts that they know I’ll love really reveals just how much my inner self is accurately perceived by the world.
Hi! I’m Andrew, a screenwriter who’s written for Apple, Disney, CBS and Universal. But enough about me! Are you: -Feeling stuck on your script? -Excited about a pilot idea but don’t know where to start? -In need of notes from a friendly outside eye? I wanna help! Shoot me a DM!

Sometimes you just need to say, "Help is on the way, dear."
I’m dying over this actual poster for “What Lies Beneath.” So hilariously rude to depict a famously hot ghost this way.
every time trump is president you gotta wash your groceries
The best edit I’ve seen in weeks, you absolutely have to turn the sound on for this one.
That “weather man of D-Day” movie is perhaps the most dad-bait looking film to ever exist.
Interesting that in the Power Rangers’ bench of largely mononymous villains, only Rita Repulsa and Ivan Ooze seem to have first and last names. Anyway, job hunt is going great.
Thinking today about something my brother used to say. So I wrote about it for Memorial Day. andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/the-milita...
"The Military is Run by 25 Year Olds."
Some Memorial Day reflections from a different sort of "Gold Star Gay."

Absolutely bowled over that Lisa Kudrow has had a DEAD-ON Parker Posey impression this WHOLE time.
Wrote another little spooky story for those of you who have a premature case of the Fall wantsies.

Watching “Pillion” was pretty wild until I realized that getting a BFA in Acting was fairly comparable. Lotta roleplay and moving furniture at the behest of a mean, tall man.
I’ve been thinking about Rod Serling’s work a lot lately. So I wrote this little yarn. andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/his-eyes
His Eyes
A scary story for today.

Truly one of the funniest people who ever lived. There are no laugh lines in this entire sequence and yet she effortlessly makes a comedic meal out of every moment.

This is why they want us talking about day care centers and $500 boots.
This part of the last chapter in Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” always brings tears to my eyes. Scrooge goes from fearing, resenting and isolating himself from humanity, to finding the joy of immersing himself in it. A reminder so potent today it makes my heart ache.
Air travel reeeeally brings out my Catholic upbringing. I just earnestly had the thought “People these days don’t feel enough shame.”
To kick off the Yuletide Season, I wrote about the cursed Christmas tree that nearly broke my family exactly 30 years ago today. andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/the-tree-o...
