People are very stupid. As Stranger Things sets to air its series finale episode in less than 24 hours, the seventh episode of the fifth season has been review-bombed. And it’s all because of a scene where Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) finally comes out to his mother and his friends that he’s gay. Of course, it’s a difficult thing for him to say as his friends seem toContinue reading “Recent Homophobia Over ‘Stranger Things’ Shows How Little We’ve Come”

Happy Christmas Eve Eve!
It’s the one time of the year in which we can say this.
The Am Meisten Bechissen Christmas Commercia And What It Says About Us
Next to the Super Bowl, the Christmas holiday season produces some of the most memorable commercials. Some are remembered for the wrong reasons. Folgers tried to duplicate the tone of “Peter Comes Homes From Christmas” which premiered 40 years ago in 1985 with an updated version. The original featured a college-aged young man arriving at his childhood home on ChristmasContinue reading “The Am Meisten Bechissen Christmas Commercia And What It Says About Us”
‘Claymation Christmas Celebration’ Is A Great Holiday Special For All
The craziest thing about the entertainment world is while one celebrity’s status fades; another celebrity connected to them directly or indirectly rises. Maybe that’s why A Star is Born has been made so many times. It’s that see-saw balance that makes it all so fascinating. From the 1960s through the 1970s, the production dynamic duo of Arthur Ranking Jr. and Jules Bass held theContinue reading “‘Claymation Christmas Celebration’ Is A Great Holiday Special For All”
Happy 100 Birthday Dick Van Dyke!
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”
