I find it fascinating that today Dick Van Dyke celebrates his 100th birthday with none other than Taylor Swift. While it is common for celebrities to have the same birthday, both Van Dyke and Swift have done so much for their respective mediums. Van Dyke was already a legend back in 1989 when Swift was born, evenContinue reading “Happy 100 Birthday Dick Van Dyke!”

Foundation Becomes Uneven For ‘Only Murders In The Building’
Every TV show hits the skids eventually. It’s inevitable. It’s a perfect storm of salary disputes among the cast leading to departures; no chemistry between some actors; series concepts changing over time; and even real actor’s deaths. With some shows like Grey’s Anatomy and Law and Order: SVU, all you need is to keep aContinue reading “Foundation Becomes Uneven For ‘Only Murders In The Building’”
Sydney Sweeney Not Playing Into Their Reindeer Games And Good For Her
I’m trying to change up the content on my blog but there are a few things recently that have pissed me off. First off is how people are trying to make Sydney Sweeney out to be a white supremacist just because people think there’s more meaning to an American Eagle advertisement she did earlier this year. It’s a play on how “genes” andContinue reading “Sydney Sweeney Not Playing Into Their Reindeer Games And Good For Her”
You Will Like ‘John Candy: I Like Me’
John Candy would’ve been 75 this Halloween if he hadn’t passed away in 1994 at 43. In death, Candy achieved that type of stardom and legacy that most actors and celebrities want but rarely achieve when they’re alive. During the last few years he was alive, Candy appeared in a lot of movies, either inContinue reading “You Will Like ‘John Candy: I Like Me’”
‘Who Killed The Montreal Expos?’ Point The Finger At Money
There’s an old saying, “What’s the answer to 99 of the 100 most asked questions? Money. God is the answer to the other question.” It’s been over 20 years since the Montreal Expos played their last game and the franchise relocated to the Washington, D.C. area and became the Washington Nationals. It’s almost fitting thisContinue reading “‘Who Killed The Montreal Expos?’ Point The Finger At Money”
‘Ed Gein’ Series Has No Meat To It
The third entry in the Monster true-crime series is a horrible mess and a perfect example of what’s wrong with the current trend of miniseries or limited series as they’re sometimes called. Twenty-five years ago, Steve Railsback played the real-life person in a movie that was only an hour and a half long. There’s evenContinue reading “‘Ed Gein’ Series Has No Meat To It”
Rest In Power, Diane Keaton
They say most of directing is in the casting. When Francis Ford Coppola cast a young actress named Diane Keaton as Kay Adams in The Godfather, it was perfect. For the most part of her life, Keaton never seemed to fit the idea of what a WASP woman was supposed to be, much the lessContinue reading “Rest In Power, Diane Keaton”
John Denver Crashes While Charlie Rich Burns…His Award Slip
It’s strange how specific dates seem to always pop up during a certain person’s life. Last month, I posted how Mike Gundy was fired from his position as head coach of Oklahoma State University’s football program 18 years and one day to his explosive rant against the Daily Oklahoman after a win against Texas Tech.Continue reading “John Denver Crashes While Charlie Rich Burns…His Award Slip”
‘Dexter: Resurrection’ Injects New Life, But It Needs Critical Care STAT
I was a big fan of Dexter when it aired on Showtime. But it was apparent after a while, it was running on empty. And like many fans, I felt Miami-area serial killer Dexter Morgan still need to atone for his sins and die. Instead he ended up looking like a lumberjack somewhere in theContinue reading “‘Dexter: Resurrection’ Injects New Life, But It Needs Critical Care STAT”
Diff’rent Strokes For Diff’rent Folks
I forgot that we’re in the middle of Hispanic Heritage Month. I know a lot of people would wonder why we should care because so many Americans are of Hispanic heritage. The latest criticism is that Bad Bunny, aka Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio , is performing at the 2026 Super Bowl half-time. He was bornContinue reading “Diff’rent Strokes For Diff’rent Folks”
