All credit goes to producer @futurejenn Carroll for picking the title of the next #BetterCallSaul episode. She emailed me the 611 title "Breaking Bad" and I thought, "Perfect."

We also have the titles of the episodes of the fourth and final season of Manifest. So speculate away.
Chris Rock has finally publicly talked about The Slap:
“Anyone who says words hurt has never been punched in the face,” Rock said Sunday, according to US Weekly. He later said, “I’m not a victim. Yeah, that sh*t hurt, motherf*cker. But I shook that sh*t off and went to work the next day. I don’t go to the hospital for a paper cut.”
The Harry Potter movies are moving to Peacock from HBO Max next month which is confusing to me but there you have it.

A federal judge dismissed Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann’s lawsuits against ABC, CBS, The New York Times, Rolling Stone, and Gannett. NBC and CNN settled with him, but it sounds like they shouldn’t have.
Speaking of bad lawsuits, Former President Fake News is threatening to sue CNN for using the term “Big Lie.” LOL, DO IT. The discovery would be AMAZING.
New: Trump says he’ll sue CNN for its coverage of the stolen election lies, demanding in a letter the publication retract + remove articles describing his claims as the “Big Lie” & “immediately cease & desist from its continued use of ‘Big Lie’ & ‘lying’” to describe them pic.twitter.com/5HXVJBHUQU

The House of the Dragon premiere was last night in Los Angeles, though George R.R. Martin wasn’t in attendance after contracting COVID at Comic-Con. If you’re interested, Watchers on the Wall have a collection of Black Carpet interviews.
and i’m going to put this in all lower-case letters because i refuse to get my hopes up. but the department of justice is allegedly investigating former president hissyfit for seditious conspiracy and conspiracy to obstruct a government proceeding, fraud associated with the false-electors scheme, and pressure put on the justice department and others to falsely claim the election was rigged. i feel like we’ve been here so many times before and this asshole always manages to wriggle his way out of everything so i just can’t get too excited about this. wake me when he gets indicted.
