Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
People were into the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade this year: it received its highest ratings in five years.
And U.S. Men’s Soccer is finally something of a draw for audiences. The U.S. – England match on Friday drew over 15 million viewers in the U.S. — the most for any men’s soccer match. Of course, this wasn’t hurt by the fact that it aired on the day after Thanksgiving, either …
Meanwhile, Dwayne Johnson is out here taking credit for bringing Henry Cavill back into the DCU as Superman. Millions of The Witcher fans would like to have a word with you, Rock.
The Office if it were an Adult Swim series:
And here are The Office characters if they existed in the Mad Max universe for some reason:

Aubrey Plaza tried to psychologically break her White Lotus co-star Adam DiMarco during filming. Yep, checks out.
Just a quick PSA: Ancient Apocalypse on Netflix might be entertaining, but it is deeply unscientific bunk that has some white supremacist inklings. Also, the host, Graham Hancock, whose silly theory underlines the series? He’s the father of Netflix’s senior manager of unscripted originals. So.
Jodie Sweetin has a new idea for another Full House sequel — this one based on the Golden Girls. As long as Candace Cameron Bure isn’t involved, sounds great.
