Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
I do hope that Tina Fey will be named Lorne Michaels’ successor when he finally steps away from Saturday Night Live, but that man isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Give Mario Cantone as many nude scenes as he wants.
George R.R. Martin is now calling The Winds of Winter “the curse of [his] life,” so, yeah, we’re never getting that book.
The actress who played young Leia in Obi-Wan Kenobi thinks there should be a series that follows the adventures of teen Leia, and I am down for it. Mostly because it would make so many misogynistic nerds SO ANGRY.
I mean, just look at how mad they are that Meryl Streep is going to play a lion. “A LION THAT IS SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT JESUS, WHO WAS A MAN!” they sputter.
Seeing people getting mad at the idea of Meryl Streep playing Aslan, because “Aslan is Jesus, and Jesus wasn’t a woman!”and sure, fair point to that. But I’m pretty sure he wasn’t a fucking lion, either

Golden Bachelorette runner-up Guy Gansert is in a relationship and will not be our next Golden Bachelor, thank goodness. The show did a really good job of sweeping under the rug the protective order that his ex took out against him, but I didn’t forget about it.

Maybe what GRRM should consider is hiring a ghost writer. Give that person the broad strokes of the book, let them write it with GRRRM’s oversite. Maybe?
