- Leslie Jones being hacked is fucking infuriating and we should all be fucking furious about it. Fuck those racist, misogynistic motherfuckers who are so fucking insecure and weak they can’t handle a strong, hilarious woman.
- Things that make me not want to just give up on everyone and everything: this Dirk Gently Holistic Detective Agency trailer.
- The idea that people came up with the idea that Steve on Stranger Things might be Jean-Ralphio Saperstein’s real father gives me good feels.
- The Miss Universe who Donald Trump called “Miss Piggy” became a U.S. citizen so she can vote against him, and that certainly helps make things better.
- And the fact that Lifetime is making a movie about Britney Spears improves my mood a little.
- This picture of Kristin Chenoweth as Easter on American Gods doesn’t make me angry.
- BUT THEN THE MERE IDEA OF RYAN LOCHTE BEING ON DANCING WITH THE STARS MAKES ME ANGRY ALL OVER AGAIN. GO AWAY, RYAN LOCHTE, NO ONE WANTS YOU HERE ANYMORE, RYAN LOCHTE.
- In news that doesn’t make me stabby, Kelly Ripa still doesn’t have a permanent co-host, and won’t by the time the season begins on September 5th. Just give Anderson Cooper the contract already, guys.
- Connie Britton will not be a regular on Nashville, will probably be leaving the show, guys.
- Bob Odenkirk is writing what he calls a “comic bildungsroman.”
- That Starz series, Survivor’s Remorse, which is a basketball comedy and not, in fact, the subtitle of Lost, has been renewed for a fourth season.
- The guys who gave us The Vampire Diaries is developing some sort of post-terrorist/martial law drama for The CW that I can only assume will be populated with sexy teenagers.
- Uh-oh. Empire is being sued again. This time for putting a bunch of juveniles in lockdown for several hours when they filmed at their detention center.
- Donald Glover wants Atlanta to be a Twin Peaks for rappers which sounds an awful lot like what he is doing with his music. OH, ZING.
- Here is an interesting interview with the Saturday Night Live Production Designer who has been with the show from the beginning. Something to chew on: the design team doesn’t even know what they will be designing and building until Wednesday night. That’s insane!
