That's your only take away: women, successful, media? Turns out I only needed 3 words for this and I used all those others too? My mistake.

Aquaman vs Waterman: Boehner takes on the Latins

I had the same reaction. I didn't care for it on first viewing.Yet it's grown on me, not sure why.

Crown, yes, it's a metaphor, but a metaphor of what? You really don't see any connection in these cases, at all? Well I made the list so I'll venture a guess:

Not sure why exactly, but while reading JWBTM's letter I kept thinking it'd be interesting to hear from her ex-husband.

Great, memorable opening scene in this movie. It seems to lay out so much of what's to come very artfully and efficiently: family relations of brothers and sons, their "business" interests and concerns, the rough country terrain, and the young white-hat Fonda on horseback juxtaposed to the grizzled old black-hat…

The ascension, anointing, the passing of the crown, is underway. I think the timeline goes like this (excluding pop stars and famous for being famous figures):

A friend saw her in Streetcar on stage in London not long ago and said she was amazing; friend was blown away by her performance. I didn't know Anderson had it in her, so, that was good to learn.

I watched this movie so many fucking times. Bcs I thought it was hilarious. It became a comfort cinema food type tying. I even managed to land an original movie poster. Not sure where that is now.

As you can probably tell from my prior comment I too think they're a very talented comedy duo. It's great to see that you and I both appreciate their gifts and hard work.

You're entirely right, of course, the topic is beyond banal. And while the responses to your comment seem to contradict the spirit of your critique, I interpret them more as a reasonable negotiation, a "yes but…" type of thing. Which is generally a good exchange.

Part of me expected to find him showing up as paid talent on satellite radio (Sirius?) It would allow for income, I think. And, not sure about this, but it could keep his format commercial free (?) And he'd have autonomy and control. All speculation tho…

Clever how they recycled the line "you screw just like a Chinaman."

Chinatown.

Perfect comment, made me smile. The wig's contract negotiations have held up production.

Oh wow, good memory, that spinning globe thing. Now that my memory is working: there was also the introduction of Scrappy Doo around then. It was in that early 80s period that they started censoring content in the Bugs Bunny show, I think.

You've captured the era well. Those Saturday mornings were thrilling, as I remember them. (I break Saturday mornings into two categories, pre-Smurfs and the year the Smurfs arrive on tv, the latter being when fun died.)

One of your drones from sector 7G.

Whoa, unexpected news that I am sorry to hear. My fondest memories are of her work with Martin Short. Jan Hooks, who is dead, I found you talented.
