I know she got paid a lot...but her career is gonna crap the bed without Faux because at least she was protected by even bigger airhead morons at Faux. Now she is going to be on in the morning pretending she is some super happy middle of the road Katie Couric type and she doesnt have the brains or genuine-ness to pull it off.

Best paragraph:

The hour crawled by. A middle segment featured the “Today” regulars welcoming Kelly to 30 Rockefeller Center, a predawn festivity of studied smarm, with the added delight of seeing Kathie Lee Gifford sit in her makeup chair and play nice-nice with Kelly the way an old house cat would welcome a naive and extra-squeaky mouse to the kitchen. Then everyone came to Kelly’s stage to drink mimosas and bask in the NBC-ness of it all.

Interesting.


“Scanners,” the 1981 David Cronenberg classic about a group of individuals living with telekinetic powers, is being developed into a television series.

Now, let's get a few things straight. First, although Scanners is iconic and campy fun it's also a crap movie, compared to its "sister," the brilliant Videodrome. It's almost like Cronenberg made "Videodrome for Dummies" as practice.

But... it has real potential in this age to be turned into something really good. You don't need to remake the latter because the original is perfect. But this could be like Galactica or West World -- first as trash, then as art.

Did you ever watch Last Days in Vietnam? I haven't watched the Burns series yet, but planning on it, but I did watch Last Days in Vietnam a few years ago. It is an excellent documentary itself, about the fall of Saigon.

Vietnam broke my Dad's heart about the USG like the pedo stuff broke his heart about the Church. About Nixon he was entirely blase: "Of course he's a crook. Look at the guy's beady eyes." :p)

I don't think my dad has voted for a single republican since Vietnam. Maybe Arne Carlson. I don't know that he's ever forgiven them for killing nearly 60,000 people over nothing.

There's a quirky show on Netflix that some might like, called Life.

Sarah Shahi in pre-Person of Interest role as LA police detective whose partner was wrongly accused of a crime, spent 12 years in jail, was exonerated and came back to the police force with a Zen attitude and a craving for fresh fruit.

Yeah, everyone is a bit quirky, but the crimes they solve are fairly interesting and the quirkiness is more mildly charming than outright annoying.

I learned where the term "slapstick" came from.

A "slap stick" originally was a stage prop, two pieces of wood on a hinge that were snapped together off-stage for a sound effect whenever someone on stage was supposed to be slapped.

Watched that when it was first on network, based solely on post Band of Brothers Damian Lewis.
