46 years ago today, one of the craziest variety shows ever premiered.

The Carpenters: Space Encounters

Starring The Carpenters, Suzanne Sommers, John Davidson and Charlie Kalas?

here’s a bear falling out of a tree and being caught by sheriff’s deputies:

Perfect for the next 'Travel Gettysburg!' brochure.

'Just last week it was reported that an illegal adlinthin-- and you just look at thisss, what's happening' -- Trump

Absolutely delightful. I don't know who the current equivalent of Cass Elliott and John Davidson are, but I wish we had more opportunities to see them do stuff like this. When Cass sings, 'And then I go & sperl it all...' 🩷

This is fabulous.

RIPLEY
Chekhov's ashtray! It gets more closeups than Dakota Fanning does.

It's all gorgeous, but colder than ice and sexless.

That lynx-like cat clearly had some acting lessons from Messi.

I just happened to V-P-N my way over to Disney + in the United Kingdom, and was astonished to see the selection of films and series available. Highly recommend if you're so inclined.

Something is stirring, shifting ground.

A heartbroken farewell to Christopher Durang, one of the funniest of all American playwrights, who skewered sacred cows with absurdist rapiers and cleavers: marriage, Catholicism, gun craziness, our pathological addiction to being entertained. his most hallowed fellow dramatists.

In 2012, Larry Cohen wrote a great article about working with Bette Davis on WICKED STEPMOTHER. A must-read for those interested: filmcomment.com/article/i-kill…

Hi! We live here! There's usually a dog (the famous Ziggy) looking over the wall in front, gossiping.
Our house is almost 100 years old, we are trying to figure out the exact date!
Thanks for posting, it's a dream for me, the American husband of my husband.

Last night’s double feature (first watches!).
The perfect combo for this holiday weekend. No notes.

BINGO: THE KING OF THE MORNINGS (2017).
If this was an American film, it easily would have garnered 10 Oscar noms, and won a handful, but it's Brazilian. Flavors of BOOGIE NIGHTS and WOLF OF WALL STREET. Some script problems, but some dazzling filmmaking. Seek it out.

This was such a surprise. Scott Heim is this on your radar? It's on Tubi US under the title GOOD MANNERS and on Netflix Brasil.

Mike Johnson has forced the banning of LGBTQ flags at US embassies. He's called gay lives 'unnatural' and 'criminal' and demanded all LGBTQ people be arrested and jailed. This is the Republican party

Idiotic Red Carpet Interviewer: “And it looks like Sissy Spacek is hanging onto some family member as she walks the red carpet”
Me: “you mean Jack Fisk? Sissy’s husband for 50 years, the Jack Fisk who’s nominated for an Oscar tonight? That Jack Fisk?”
