Watching DIE HARD 2 for the umpteenth time. What a picture. I love how casually everyone curses in these movies. Every other word out of Dennis Franz’s mouth is “fuck.”

Im seeing discussions about consultations with congress, authorizations of force etc. I have to say this transcends any of what I would call sub constitutional technicalities. The president has gone to war with a foreign power and, it seems, kidnapped a foreign head of state on the basis of nothing.

Just learned Aldis Hodge played Samuel L. Jackson’s nephew in DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE (with is a fucking great movie, btw). Now I can’t stop thinking of a legacy sequel in the tradition of CREED, with Hodge and Jackson reprising their roles.

Who knew that a Donald Trump meal could be ACCURATELY described by the first verse of the McDonald’s Menu Song?

“Big Mac, Mc DLT, a Quarter-Pounder with some cheese, Filet-O-Fish, a hamburger, a cheeseburger, a Happy Meal.”

You are getting a live preview of this as streamers “reinvent” weekly drops of series that return in less than a year with seasons of 15+ episodes. Just straight up looking in the camera and marveling at this “hole in the market” that’s actually the shallow grave they shoveled TV into for 8 years.

This is the damage we suffered from the LA rain storm. Positively Shane Blackian.

Thomas Jane will be playing a "young" Bones McCoy in the Strange New Worlds series finale, even though he's a decade older than DeForest Kelley was when Star Trek debuted in 1966.

Have not been able to speak with anyone on the show yet. But FWIW, I have heard from three different people at CBS News who said the "60 Minutes" decision happened because of the show's decision to stick with a final edit CBS News execs disagreed with. But that's just the word in the newsroom.

Obscure TV alert! PREY is on Tubi. It aired on ABC in 1998, lasting only 13 episodes. Debra Messing plays an anthropologist who discovers a secret race of superhuman sociopaths.

I see people hoping HBO or a US company takes over Heated Rivalry next season so it has a bigger budget & is Emmy-eligible, so I’d like to emphasize Jacob Tierney’s answer re: what would have happened if it had been made by a US company, based on what was said to him when he was pitching it.
