She completely flamed out on Idol, but she's been one of the better guest judges on SYTYCD for the past few years. The question is whether she can be as effective an anchor as Mary was.

Per IMDB he's 86, but he still seems pretty spry. Still working, though mostly on cartoon and video game voice work. I think he'd be capable of reprising the role, but he probably wouldn't see the point.

No James Hong, no sale.

There's a long wrestling tradition of effete, monied "heels". "The Great Gatsby" would be a fine wrestling name.

Though I'm sure many dateless high schoolers would like to explore that variant…

…until Mrs. Paul won the fight for that trademark.

I was a fan of Nyssa's original velvet princess outfit, but yeah, her later costumes were pretty unflattering.

Originally a Steve Jackson boardgame, for which a GURPS tabletop RPG setting was later created.

The name of the parody newspaper obviously should be the "Harold Tribune". That this game resorted to "Hareld" sums up its failure succinctly.

All culture gets bastardized and appropriated. It's what it means to be alive.

No James Return of the Living Dead Karen, no sale.

I don't think there's much to be improved in the first. Hellbound could be cleaned up a bit from a plot standpoint, but is generally a pretty good "opening up" of the cenobite concept. The third falls short chiefly in its rock bottom budget. Some might fault it for trying to "explain" Pinhead (the perennial curse of…

There's also 1987's The Curse, starring Wil Wheaton. I've not seen it, but I think it's a bit more faithful, if not especially good.

I thought Uwe Boll was the Uwe Boll of gore…

"I looked into the abyss… and the abyss looked back… and neither of us liked what we saw!"

It's not terribly surprising to me that his first Late Night episode was "as formed as anything else Letterman’s ever done" for the very reason that he'd had those daytime shows to set up a lot of the basics.
