Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

A small collection of people saying dumb things:

Patrick J. Adams claims that Suits — yes, Suits, the dumb legal drama that ran on basic cable — inspired Succession. That Succession. “It’s in New York, we’re dealing with New York. Power brokers, people moving and shaking at the highest levels of New York society.” Because before Suits, shows about powerful business people in New York never existed before, that’s just a true fact.

Oh, and hey, Ryan Murphy is running his mouth again, this time saying, “The Menendez brothers should be sending me flowers.” His point is that their case is receiving renewed attention because of his limited series that they are so critical of, which isn’t entirely unfair. But maybe, MAYBE, he could realize that the Menendezes are in jail and he’s making millions off of their tragedy, let that be all the validation and flowers he needs, and shut the hell up already.

Hold up, is Cheryl Hines finally coming to her senses? Maybe! But not because of all the affairs. It’s because she fucking hates Former President Lady Marmalade and who can blame her?

Melania’s book publisher tried to shake down CNN for $250,000 for her to come on to promote her book. LOL, that’s not how book promotion works, but hucksters gonna huck.

Oh and by the way, Jack Smith just dropped a huge filing detailing Former President Insurrectionist’s attempt to overthrow the 2020 election (it’s complicated, but the long and short of it is that thanks to our corrupt Supreme Court — AND DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED DOWN THAT ROAD — Smith had to prove that Former President Squash Face was acting as a candidate, not in his official capacity as the President, when he attempted to steal the election) and it’s not especially new information, but it should serve as another instance when we are all reminded that this monster should never be allowed anywhere near a position of power again.

Here in Texas, October 7 is the last day to register to vote. Even if you believe you are registered, make absolutely certain you still are, because there has been some remarkable tomfoolery happening with the voter rolls in the name of “election integrity.” Don’t be caught flat-footed when you go to vote.

Also, early voting begins on October 21. Consider making it a part of your plan: the lines will be shorter than on Election Day, weekend voting might be available (I think it depends on where you are), and you never know what might happen between now and November 5th, but you can be certain your vote will be counted once that vote is actually submitted.

Another day, another instance of David Zaslav pissing people off. “Ben 10, Steven Universe, Regular Show, the 2016 revival of The Powerpuff Girls, The Amazing World of Gumball, We Bare Bears, and Chowder” have all been removed from Max without a word.

I guarantee that when these Real Housewives came up with “Reasonably Shady” as the title of their podcast they were not thinking about Eminem, nor will his fans confuse this podcast with Eminem. This is one of the dumbest trademark disputes I’ve heard.

And this is my shocked face when I learned (some) (most) Real Housewives refuse to pay designers they work with.

Former NCIS actress Pauley Perrette says she’s retiring from acting to be her “authentic” self.

Dr. Mark Chavez, one of the doctors associated with Matthew Perry’s overdose, has pled guilty.

Wait, WAIT, Jax and Brittany were NEVER MARRIED?

They’ve named a part of 44th Street in Manhattan after Sumner Redstone. It’s the street in Times Square where Paramount has its headquarters, and where MTV filmed TRL back in the day, making every 3 o’clock an impossible time to get work done as a young editorial assistant working across the street. It was LOUD, y’all.
