The Game of Thrones guys are speaking very vaguely about Jon and Daenerys’ relationship in the final season. It’s not much, and in fact it is incredibly obvious, but we have to take what we can get.
President Copyright Violation had a poster made of that “Sanctions Are Coming” thing he tweeted out in November and had the poster displayed at his cabinet meeting yesterday — which suggested that sanctions are coming on November 4, but it is January 3, and 2019 is already so confusing, you guys. Even Kellyanne was like, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. (Of course, that was the least batshit insane thing that happened in that meeting, but OK.)
Dudes, Bandersnatch supposedly goes so deep there are scenes that the creators themselves have no idea how to access, which, honestly, sounds like the set-up to a Black Mirror episode.
Also, would you please leave the actor who plays Stefan Colin in Bandersnatch alone? HE IS AN ACTOR.
ALSO, PLEASE DO NOT BIRDBOX YOURSELVES, YOU DINGUSES, THAT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA. Speaking of Birdbox, someone made a toy out of the description of the (SPOILER!) unseen monster per Sandra Bullock’s description of it. It’s horrifying.
This is sold as the places and times that Timeless was going to visit but didn’t, but really it’s just where and when the actors wish the show had visited which is not the same thing.
That Beverly Hills 90210 revival is not an actual Beverly Hills 90210 revival but a meta-mockumentary about the cast of Beverly Hills 90210 trying to get a Beverly Hills 90210 revival made.
So, Pete Davidson did some stand-up for the first time since his Instagram meltdown, where he addressed Ariana Grande and more interestingly, Louis C.K., who he said tattled on him to Lorne Michaels and the producers of SNL for smoking too much pot:
Louis C.K. “told all the producers in front of me that all this kid does is smoke weed and he’s gonna smoke his career away.”
Davidson added that the American Hustle actor also told the show’s executive producer, Lorne Michaels, “that Pete smokes so much weed that it makes people uncomfortable.”
“Then five years later this mother—ker’s been locking doors and jerking off in front of people,” he added.
Also:
Davidson, 25, who wore a green jacket, baseball cap and black sweatpants, told the audience about his tattoos, explaining that after he got a Harry Potter tattoo, actor Alan Rickman, who played Professor Snape, died, and then he got a Willy Wonka tattoo and Gene Wilder, who played the character in a 1971 film, passed away. It made him think that everyone he gets a tattoo of will die. “So I’ve been thinking about getting a tattoo of Louis C.K., what do you guys think?”
Team Pete.
