I hope the 30 Rock thing is good. I’m a little nervous because it is one of my all time favorite shows, and I still will quote it pretty regularly. The “father pig”, “I don’t drink hot liquids of any kind – that’s the devils temperature!” “Science is my most favorite subject, especially the Old Testament” “Factories provide three things this country desperately needs: jobs, pride, and material for Bruce Springsteen songs” “I believe that vampires are the world’s greatest golfers but their curse is that they never get to prove it.”
There’s just SO many good one liners, and the entire show was so ridiculous that I don’t understand how it survived as long as it did, but I am SO glad it did.
Same – that show is PACKED with jokes, and so funny. That write up at Lainey’s isn’t great though – saying the show had a shaky first season and was retooled and dropped major characters like Rachel Dratch.
Dratch was originally the Jenna character, but was recast after an unaired pilot. And the show was great after a few episodes, not a few seasons.
Good for JLaw.
I rewatched it for the third time last year. Just so so great.
Good on Jennifer Lawrence.
As a Kentuckian, this should raise the profile to make sure Breonna’s murderers are arrested because the attention is fading and that is heartbreaking.
Yea Jennifer Lawrence
Now more people in position that have a large following, except the Kardashians as they are vile, must stand up and follow Jennifer’s lead. I am excited to watch Omar Epps documentary. Including people in power must stand up and spread the word!! The justice system is unfair in regards to POC and other classes of people. They receive longer prison terms/punishments, are given higher bonds, and are given less support to change their life around. Please take a look at this interview with Rayshard before his death. It’s heartbreaking 💔. He was a lovely man!!

I don’t blame people for being upset about the Diana casting. Stewart has zero personality and there are plenty of amazing British actresses they could have chosen.
Strange choice. I’m a Kristen Stewart fan, but I don’t see her as Diana…
Personally not impressed w Kristen Stewart playing Diana. Kstew is just dead eyed, whilst Diana means so much and had so much heart.
Facebook took down Trump ads! Getting my popcorn and Twitter feed ready!!!
It’s about time! I was thinking about deleting my FB because they were willing to allow him to spread his lies!
I think Kristen Stewart is actually a really good actress and a lot of reasons people call her “dead eyed“ or variations thereof are sexist objections to the fact that she doesn’t smile a lot in public and in pictures, or they can’t separate her from her Twilight days. I saw her recently in the movie personal shopper and she was really good.
Agree with @sforeman.
I also don’t understand why people disagree with casting someone who doesn’t look or act like the person they are playing. It’s called acting for a reason.
I don’t care if she smiles unless she’s playing a very happy character (as a woman I’ve never enjoyed being told to smile), and I’ve seen plenty of her films besides Twilight.
In my opinion, she’s always been a very limited actress. Yes, she’s photogenic and can be styled up to look interesting or placed in different roles, but she always plays them essentially the same way. Same voice, same body language, same standoffish vibe–I just see Kristen, not a character, not a transformation. She just doesn’t get deep under the skin of her characters the way really talented actors do. She could be a model instead of an actress since people are willing to give her so much credit for being pretty. But I’m not. Diana was more than just pretty, so I don’t think casting Kristen Stewart will pay off.
Why would anybody care about Dina Lohan? Or any of the Lohans for that matter
I like Kristen Stewart, but Elizabeth Dibecki might be a better choice.
I don’t know if any of you read the story of the rally, but when asked about COVID-19, Drumpfs response was that he doesn’t like to talk about it and it’s disappearing anyway!! Plus, Drumpf and his campaign manager had never heard of Juneteenth, which is why that was the initial date. There. Is also a legal challenge taken to the Oklahoma Supreme Court in hopes of cancelling the rally of subjecting all attendees to follow CDC rules from the spread of the virus!! At least someone in OK has a brain! And the OK officials will not be attending the rally.
“Plus, Drumpf and his campaign manager had never heard of Juneteenth, which is why that was the initial date.” Oh no, someone there knew. Not Trump, because he knows nothing, but someone knew. It was intentional, as was the location.
