Because, just like with movies, producers believe recognizable IP means less chance of failure. People already like it in one medium so we can get them to pay for it in another.

Javier Bardem if you can afford it.

I know you’re joking, but Old-ish is already the name of the planned spinoff centered around Dre’s reunited parents currently on order for pilot.

Eh, I’d argue that Snape and his contemporaries were all cast 10-15 years older than they should have been. It takes away from the grim reality that most of them were college-aged the first time they fought Voldemort, that Harry’s parents were struck down so young and it makes it even creepier that they all misplace…

I think this is it. Monae is naturally incredibly charismatic but (at this point) still a pretty raw actress who can shine with solid direction.

Ryan has been holding CBS’ feet to the fire for a while now and they deserve it - take a look at the millions of dollars they had to pay Eliza Dushku because the star and producers of Bull are trash or the stories leading up to Peter Lenkov’s (CSI, Hawaii 5-0, McGuyver) dismissal.

TBG was the only one when it premiered in 2000 but it was joined during its run by George Lopez in 2002, along with the short-lived Greetings from Tucson on the WB/CW (which only lasted one season).

Douglas Booth played him about a decade ago in a pretty well-received tv movie, is still looking for a breakout film role and is only 29.

I think the implication is that they had a lease for a year and would have loved to renew for another but were not offered the option. There was no breach of the existing lease.

Unfortunately it’s likely been much more common than we would like to think.

New York did though? That episode incorporated Republican George Pataki’s victory over longtime governor Mario Cuomo (Andrew’s father). Cuomo was a staunch Catholic who opposed the death penalty and reinstating it was a large part of Pataki’s winning platform.

Which is weird because there was a show about Interpol just a few years ago - with Donald Sutherland and William Fitchtner and the face-swapping guy from Game of Thrones!

Not sure what software you’re using but the name Ike comes up 15 times in the body of the article (perhaps you forgot to not count the letters’ usage in the word ‘like’ or are counting the words in the article overflow at the bottom of the page?) and 4 of those times are in naming the band (which makes it unavoidable).

It’s pretty clear they went with Grace (similar build and manner to Maguire’s Peter) over someone like Rollins to stress the thin line that divides someone like Peter and someone like Brock. Brock is a Peter who, without the guiding light of someone like Uncle Ben, let his envy and insecurity curdle into hate and rage.

That’s not what happens: they don’t just change the 2015 future - they erase the entire post-1985 street racing accident timeline once he refuses to be goaded into the drag race. Everything from that point changes.

Of all the movies where the studio decided they wanted to crank out a trilogy and film them back to back, I think the Pirates of the Caribbean movies might have been shafted the most as the second and third movies lack any of the charm of the original. The third one is such a mess it’s obvious they started filming…

Unfortunately she and her label had been at war for most of the last decade, leaving her unable to release any newly recorded music, which is why her career plateaued. I agree that she’s actually pretty talented and it looks like she may be able to release music again later this year.

I’m pretty sure that’s meant to be the previous editor/owner as she introduced herself last week as Chrissy Beppo and the door name was Dodge.

Also useful for cleaning hair clippers or beard trimmers if you’ve inevitably lost the tiny brush that came with them.
