One fascinating aspect of today’s media landscape is that many creators and executive producers enjoy using Twitter to engage with their audiences, share behind-the-scenes information about their shows, chat about politics, and otherwise communicate about what matters to them. So, each week, we’ll compile some of our favorite exchanges representing the wide variety of discourse seen on social media.
LAST WEEK’S TWEETS: Seth Rogen Gets ‘Inception’-ed, Carrie Coon Loves the Public Theater
This week: Judd Apatow has no patience for (alleged) rapists, and Seth Rogen and Stephen Colbert slide into Donald Trump Jr.’s DMs.
As retweeted by “Hannibal”/”American Gods” showrunner (and user of ALL CAPS) Bryan Fuller:

It’s really the photo that sells it.
Also, gotta love this behind-the-scenes snapshot from the set of “American Gods”:

Okay, got that out of our system. Meanwhile, this is just too real. (More cat-related storylines in “Dear White People,” please.)
Just saw #BeautyandtheBeast & loved it. @Disney pls create a restaurant where I'm served French food by Lumiere, Mrs. Potts etc? Will pay $$

Guess what, Mindy? Disney is on top of that. Well, sorta. There’s The Red Rose Taverne in Disneyland and Be Our Guest Restaurant in Disney World. It’s not strictly French, but the grey stuff is delicious.
We’re really looking forward to the upcoming TNT adaptation of “Snowpiercer,” and yet showrunner Josh Friedman keeps finding new ways to worry us.
Sometimes I flip through my Snowpiercer script and think: "Fuck. It's just not cruel enough."

A recent issue of the Marvel comic book “The Unstoppable Wasp” included this sweet Easter Egg for Ava DuVernay:

Actually, that’s fewer writers than we might have expected.
Whilst retweeting praise for “The Big Sick” this week, Apatow also spent some time reminding us just what kind of person Bill Cosby is.
If Cosby's defense is true he is admitting to cheating hundreds of times on his wife with the use of quaaludes. That's what he admits. https://t.co/gFthKCfOKa

I think Cosby will be tried again for a simple reason– after he knocks you unconscious he rapes you then threatens you and sues you. https://t.co/980x3rEcH8
— Judd Apatow 🇺🇦 (@JuddApatow) June 19, 2017
In a way very similar to Trump, the Cosby's live in a bizarre, self centered reality of their own creation-accountable to no one. https://t.co/LCGSBb6I5M

Prosecutor vows to launch new sexual-assault case against Bill Cosby following mistrial -GOOD! HE IS DANGEROUS! https://t.co/poc4oUClOn
— Judd Apatow 🇺🇦 (@JuddApatow) June 17, 2017
He admitted what he did. Cosby denies it. Even though he admitted giving women quaaludes .Why don't you believe 50 women? https://t.co/JNH7HRalf7
— Judd Apatow 🇺🇦 (@JuddApatow) June 18, 2017
Cosby is pure evil. He will face his maker. And his maker will know the truth. https://t.co/2Tyhn5P4sB

“The Handmaid’s Tale” showrunner Bruce Miller introduced us to maybe the coolest thing we’ve seen in a long time — pancake art.
