Here’s a red panda in case you need it:
Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
Last night saw the end of Curb Your Enthusiasm after 12 seasons and 24 years, and the big question we all have has been answered: Yes, Bruce Springsteen improvised that line in the previous episode.
What I actually mean is: yes, it ended the way people suspected … sorta. I won’t spoil it in case you haven’t watched it yet, but the consensus (including here at Foolish HQ) is it was pretty pretty pretty good.
Loved the #CurbYourEnthusiasm finale. A chaotic, yet heartfelt send-off to our favorite curmudgeon, Larry David! pic.twitter.com/xLNfsPTBAd

curb your enthusiasm was just a ploy for larry to spite everyone that’s bitched and complained about the seinfeld finale these past decades pic.twitter.com/GfVN8NLUEU

The only lesson Larry David ever learned in his entire life was that the SEINFELD finale could’ve been a little better.
What a perfect end for CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM. pic.twitter.com/qeQezHJTyo

The Westworld kids are hoping to finish up their story with one final season somewhere, and I won’t be surprised when it happens, but also, meh?
Second least surprising story of the day: Chevy Chase is not invited to be in the Community movie.
Least surprising story of the day: Former President Reality Huckester wanted Ivanka to take over for him on The Apprentice.
The investigation into elder abuse against Good Times actor John Amos has been dropped by police. He’s fine y’all.
The ladies love them some time travel dramas.
My heart goes out to Christina Applegate and Anna Paquin.
Morgan Wallen is in trouble again.
Thoughts and prayers for J. Lo.
Congratulations to Don Lemon and Tim Malone.
A brief personal note: I’m sorry I ran off last week. My father passed away on Thursday after a three-year battle with ALS. He was at home surrounded by his loved ones when he slipped away, and his suffering is now over. I appreciate your kind words and patience. Your support during a very sad time for my family was deeply felt. Thank you.
