Lou Grant was cancelled because Asner publicly called out the Reagan Administration for using the CIA to give money and military aid to Jose Napoleon Duarte and his nationionalist party and associated paramilitary death squads while they exterminated communist party members in El Salvador. An…

Watts’ drumming wasn’t flashy but he sat in the pocket and held down the rhythm section for the most famous rock and roll band in the world for 6 decades.

Speight in his later years thought he had failed with Garnett. He had meant to use him as a parody of a deeply ignorant bigot only to find that people agreed with him.

I said something about that being not at all cool, and some of my (male) coworkers spoke up in defense of…
