You don’t want to know what a ‘Greg the Egg’ is. Trust me.

They say dogs don’t feel guilt. I present exhibit A in the argument against that:

Of course Cousin Greg has inspired a sex toy (or technology, technically), “Greg the Egg,” because people are perverts. And yes, Nicholas Braun knows about it and it makes him uncomfortable.

And while we’re on the topic, Oscar Isaac’s full-frontal shot in Scenes from a Marriage is because Jessica Chastain made clear with the director that if she was going to do nudity, so was Isaac.

Netflix has fired the employee who leaked financial information about the Dave Chappelle specials, Squid Game and Bo Burnham: Inside, to make a point about how the Chappelle specials cost more than the other two titles but returned less. The fired employee was also one of the organizers of this week’s walkout in protest of Dave Chappelle: The Closer.

The leaked report also revealed that Squid Game will generate $891.1 million in “impact value.”

Oh my God, do not turn Squid Game into a video game. WHY? WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?

The IATSE and AMPTP, The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, negotiated a deal at the last moment to avert a strike. However, it might not be approved by the majority of IATSE members, as many of them seem disappointed by the terms.

America’s Got Talent: Extreme has paused production indefinitely after the horrific accident last week involving stuntman Jonathan Goodwin.

The Critics Choice Awards and the Golden Globes are having a slap fight after the Globes announced they would be having their ceremony on the same January night that the Critics Choice Awards had already claimed.

Of COURSE Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s engagement is going to be a part of the Kardashians’ new show, did you think for a second Kris wasn’t going to monetize that?

Candace Bushnell, the creator of Sex & The City, is now saying the show isn’t very feminist.

Drake threatened to quit Degrassi if they didn’t write him out of the wheelchair because he was an insecure little brat.

The showrunner and creator of B Positive has left the series after the show took a weird left turn in the second season.

Sinclair Broadcast Group was hit by a ransomware attack over the weekend. Pity.

Can we just pause here for a second to note that Sean Penn was (but soon won’t be) married to Vincent D’Onofrio’s daughter? Lelia George is 29, Sean Penn is 61, Vincent D’Onofrio is 62, Sean Penn’s children are 30 and 28. Gross gross gross gross gross gross gross.

Stay healthy, Kasie Hunt!

Get better soon, Vince Neil!
