Is there anything more delightfully Tim Gunn than the first word of his first response being "Heavens!"?

He looks like the dude that they want you to think is the killer in the first half of a Law & Order.

Snorted at this

Can I have a junior western bacon chee? A JUNIOR western bacon chee. No onions.

I've never read this, but I sort of understood this to be the turning point where the quality of his novels started to slide and never really recovered (with a couple of exceptions). It's also the one King novel you can count on being in a used bookstore, (and the one you probably won't be able to sell to a used

For sure. His restaurants were a huge boon to the city after Katrina. A lot of people like to talk a big game about helping out NOLA (*cough*Brangelina*cough*) but it's the people who stick around and bring in business and basically adopt NOLA as their hometown that engender the most good will.

Yes, it's still up, but hasn't been updated in 4 years or so (around the time these kind of blogs stopped being a thing, I guess). I apologize in advance if it's dated or not as clever as the writer thinks http://thesecondsingle.blog…

They were the first ones to come to mind

I can think of a ton of bands who were influenced by The Doors in the '80s. That may be the last decade they weren't considered something of a dated joke by a large segment of the audience. Think of how many Goth Rock singers aped Morrison's spooky crooner style.

I used to write a blog about one-hit wonders, and yeah, tons of them had a second hit (that's actually what the blog covered, the second hit no one can recall). But damn there were a surprising amount who legitimately dropped off the radar after their hit.

He's still big. Hell, Paul Prudhomme is still big and he's dead. Emeril is probably not currently as important locally as someone like John Besh (not a slight on Emeril, it's sorta generational) not to mention all the up-and-comers, but since tourism is the city's no. 1 industry, he definitely helps with that angle.

That's a great point. They scripted it with a documentary filmmaker's mind rather than a horror filmmaker's mind, which makes all the difference.

Shane Black anything is cool, imo

Michael Rappaport says Del Toro is a "stickman" so this seems believable.

This is the coolest thing I've heard today

They would've burned up well before they reached the sun

It is a great song, although it's '70s as hell for a movie about the '50s. Frankie Valli singing it doesn't really make it LESS funky and disco sounding.

They'll seem that much better when they only watch the viral clips that get passed around and not the entire 90 minute episode.

Went to see it with my sister the Saturday after it came out. It was the middle of the day, bright and sunny when we went in. Halfway through the movie, the projector shut down, but the lights stayed low. Everyone in the theater was silent, save for a couple of girls who were squealing quietly. The emergency exit door

That's what I always thought the subsequent found-footage movies were missing—a sense of reality, and a sense of restraint. TBWP whether it was real or not FELT real. Like some of the best horror movies from Psycho to Jaws, what you DIDN'T see was more terrifying than what you did see. It seemed real that the drama
