To me, the Phil Hartman/Reagan "Mastermind" sketch was his absolute high point on SNL, and he had a lot of them.

A similar thing happened to Dwight Eisenhower in 1957, after he had been sworn in for a second term. He had what was is now believed to be a fair sized TIA, and was having trouble with his speech, resulting in aphasia. Richard Nixon was informed by Eisenhower's Chief Of Staff to be ready to assume office if the…

I can imagine that his lawyer won't be able to say anything to anyone until the death certificate is finalized and probate can begin. I'm just curious of there is some sort of "clock" that starts in terms of paying bills, appraising the estate for value and taxes, etc. I've also seen a couple of articles that stated…

I heard a more PG version of Joe's fascination with the American Southwest told by Brian Setzer on "Sessions At West 54th" where he said that he and Joe would rent Cadillacs and drag their families around the Southwest, smoking big cigars and checking out every ghost town along their route.

It's the same with the Velvet Underground. Both they and the Doors were an antidote to "hippie doofusness" musicwise.

Not always. I read an article earlier in the day that stated his attorney may be waiting until the results of the autopsy are in, and the final death certificate is issued. But I would have to imagine his Sister knows who his lawyer is, and would have contacted them. It all boils down to "stay tuned."

I remember reading that Warner Brothers asked some of its other artists who had done filmwork, (Randy Newman, Mark Knopfler, Elvis Costello) if they were interested in doing a "rock" soundtrack album. The answers varied from "No." to "It will take me 6 months." Prince didn't have that problem.

If I were to guess, Chuck played Howard as well. After all, unlike Chuck, he might not have committed to his ploy. And if I were to guess, Howard and not Jimmy will be Chuck's undoing. Sooner or later, he'll tire of Chuck's antics and lead a vote to either buy Chuck out, or kick him out of HHM.

I read an interview with Harold Ramis where he regretted not cultivating more of a relationship with Ted Knight on the set of Caddyshack, as he was kind of regarded as a "square" by the rest of the cast. He always came ready to work, was sober as a judge, and spent his off time with his family, doing touristy Florida…

He's well thought of by his peers, as you can tell from the cameos on the show from everyone from John Witherspoon to Hannibal Burress. Even Mark Maron likes his stand up, and Mark tends to dislike a lot of comedians.

He'll keep the "Bonnie And Clyde" money to fall back on. To get B&C made, Beatty waved his fees as actor, co-writer and producer for scale pay, and 40% of the gross. That decision made him an incredibly wealthy man.

I remember that shooting millions of feet of footage was a badge of honor among directors in the late 70's/early 80's, with Francis Ford Coppola being first to the party with Apocalypse Now, then Stanley Kubrick with The Shining, followed by Michael Cimino with Heaven's Gate, and winding down with Beatty's Reds. Ah,…

I always thought of "Brickleberry" as Tosh's "Freddy Got Fingered". He probably had a production deal that was worth some dough, knew the guys from the "Damn Show" and asked if they were up for a nice payday. And they all cashed in, to Comedy Central's dismay.

It will still be cheaper than the urinal painting.

I caught a rerun of Tosh.O the other night where he was plugging this movie going into the commercial for it, saying that, "Comedy Central says that I can't make fun of this movie. That doesn't mean that you can't."

I thought that fell through. Clint Eastwood was set to direct it, but something went wrong with the deal, and he would up going on to direct Tom Hanks in "Scully," the biopic of the pilot who made the emergency landing in the Hudson River, off of Manhattan.

I always thought that Clooney would have been great in a Batman movie if it had been a takeoff on the 1966 series, as a comically oriented Batman/Bruce Wayne. He didn't get the Batman movie he deserved.

I would like to see an adaptation of the book "Hellhound On His Trail" which is about the assassination of Martin Luther King, and the international manhunt for James Earl Ray, and the events in both men's lives in the year prior to April 4. 1968.

I liked "Breakout Kings." If only for the McPoyle brother who was a mathematical genius and all around asshole who was also a degenerate gambler, which is what got him tossed in the clink.
