I never watched the show and decided to personally investigate based on your comment. Thanks for that.

I’ve read that people send him audition tapes so when he calls someone’s name he has an idea what the quality will be. This 17 year old girl absolutely steals the show — she…

I grew up in San Francisco and my mom was a member of the Peace & Freedom party. When I was still in elementary school, she brought me along in a convoy of buses to a demonstration in Sacramento.

If I could ask Rose Byrne one question it would be, “Where is the time machine that got 11-year old you from the past into the present to play your daughter in Knowing?” (Has any movie ever had a parent and child who looked this much like an actual family?)

I’m skimming the parts of this post about fame whores and am truly saddened by the death of Irrfan Khan.

I was out with Jon Hamm, and Andrew Rannells

I didn’t know that historical source. Thanks.
