John Krasinski sold SGN (Some Good News) program to VIACOMCBS

[Anonymous]

To paraphrase Lloyd Bentsen,
"I went to Brown with John Krasinsky"
"I knew John Krasinsky"
"John Krasinski was/is a friend of mine"
"Naysayers, You don't know John Krasinski and should back the f' down with the negativism"

He is smart, caring, creative, funny and, above all, a great husband, dad, and friend. He came up with an idea to bring joy to a community amid a global crisis and it worked for every person it touched directly and indirectly. The friend I made in college is still that great, decent person today and we all couldn't be happier and prouder for him. No one got duped, no one got hurt.

Take your anger out on the things/people causing this crisis, not the ones trying to make the world a bit better along the way.

Not sure how’s that relevant to the broader audience.

Nice try, John.

Self-promoting during a crisis is bad enough. Profiting from it is a million times worse. You just ruined your nice guy reputation.

I called it from the start. When everyone was praising him for being so selfless and down to earth, I knew he was self-promoting. He was literally on the cusp of being A list when the pandemic hit, and he was so thirsty to remain relevant that he created a bit to keep him in the limelight. I knew he wasn’t doing this out of the kindness of his heart “for the people.”

He’s profiting off of the pandemic, just like I knew he would. Gross. Not cool.

Plus, like posters in another thread have commented, he’s ugly.

He has been soooooo thirsty and try-hard in recent years. Major turnoff.

It’s kind of his job. Would you rather he was lazy and put in no effort? Success is a combo of talent and hard work.

Imagine that. A full time actor, director, producer, and executive producer created a really good thing while unemployed and now that he's going back to work, he made a deal with a company to continue that something good so he can get back to his day job.

What a horrible, horrible John Krasinski. Said no one ever...

He is an awesome guy and a business man. Sucks for you that you don't understand that.

Plenty are calling him out for his behavior. This thread is just a small sample; the negative media coverage is another.

Then how do you explain Keanu Reeves?

My sense is that it’s become a lot of work for him. It’s started as something fun and ballooned from there and he just can’t keep up the demand. Also, he has a wife, kids and a day job.

Oh has Keanu Reeves starred in anything good in the last 10 years? I must have missed it.

Has Krasinski?

The difference is self-promoting to such an extent that it’s off-putting. Now we see Krasinski is greedy. He’s just not cool like Keanu...

There’s always people who are offended and will hate on anything. Says more about them than the topic.

He said basically what someone else posted: He has a dayjob to get back to.
