Kurt Loder

Kurt Loder is a legendary Film critic and a television personality. To the audience, he is perhaps the most recognizable judge due to his career with MTV. To the Filmmakers, he is a daunting critic whose validation is hard-earned but always well-deserved.
​
Kurt Loder is a film critic, author, columnist, and sometime television presence. He spent most of the 1980s as a senior editor at Rolling Stone, and then all of the 1990s at MTV, where he hosted The Week in Rock. He has appeared as himself in a number of movies, most of them bad. He also once appeared, in cartoon form, on The Simpsons – a career highlight. His third book, The Good, the Bad and the Godawful, a collection of seven years’ worth of movie reviews, was published by St. Martin’s Press.

Tim Minear

In his own words, Tim Minear is a non-Marxist writer/producer who grew up in Whittier, California and was horri8ied and thrilled when Harlan Ellison hit Joan Collins with a car in an episode of the original Star Trek. He’s been trying to write a moment like that ever since.

Tim’s credits include lots of shows that didn’t require a law or medical degree
or any real higher education to speak of. These include
Lois and Clark: The New
Adventures of Superman
, The X-Files, Angel, Firefly, Wonderfalls, The Inside,
Drive,
Dollhouse and his personal favorite (and least watched--and that’s up
against some pretty stiff competition) FX’s
Terriers. Which was not a reality
show about dog grooming. He currently serves as executive producer on FX’s

American Horror Story.
