No, I haven’t seen Revenge but I will keep a look out for it. Thanks.

This is my favourite movie this year. It is completely batshit but with a strong message and heart throughout. Summary: Demi Moore is the lead and plays Elizabeth Sparkle, an Oscar winning actress who transitioned to a fitness tv host in her later years and gets fired on her 50th birthday for daring to be 50 as a women in showbiz. She later gets offered “ the substance “ that essentially clones a younger 20 something version of her. The catch is that the consciousnesses has to swap between the two every 7 days. But the rule isn’t followed and havoc ensures It’s been out a month and I put spoiler tags so … watching the systemic degeneration of Elizabeth’s body after Sue got the NYE gig and kept extending her fair share was a wild ride. The only part that went too far for me that I could not watch was when Sue beat Elizabeth to death, too much like ( was) elder abuse. The full on Carrie moment at the NYE party was absurd enough for me to enjoy. The best scene was when Elizabeth couldn’t bring herself to leave her apartment for her date because she was too self critical of her looks. That was heartbreaking and relatable. In summary: go run to see this movie- yesterday- it’s fabulous and utterly original! But don’t eat anything while watching it. You will regret it 🤢.

http://thefutoncritic.com/listings/20220721fox06/ Season finale is on Wednesday August 10th.

I think that the press release is saying that this is the episode before the series finale. So an August 10 finale?

The finals have usually featured 4 contestants. At this stage of the competition there is 8. If the pre- taped shows continue to eliminate 2 a week then, taking into account that they are skipping this week, after July 20th there will be 4 remaining. I am going to make an educated guess and predict that there will be a live finale on July 27. That will either be a single episode or the results will be announced on August 3rd.

He was probably referring to the people magazines “source” being anonymous, not the contestant since he respected her privacy too. He could have just said the name of the her out loud or shown the screenshot of the message with her name on it. Also couple of dance show alumni that he has worked with “ liked” his post including Cat Deeley. They understand how those shows work so believe his explanation.

Morrison admitted in his official statement with US that he broke production protocol which is why he is leaving the show. He also apologised to all involved. https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/matthew-morrison-exits-so-you-think-you-can-dance/ People magazines article headline a few days later was ” Matthew Morrison fired from SYTYCD for “flirty” messages that made a contestant “uncomfortable” https://people.com/tv/matthew-morrison-fired-from-sytycd-flirty-messages-with-contestant-source/?amp=true If the message that he read out on instagram was truly the only message he sent as claimed then he wasn’t being flirty and people was defamatory. I don’t think that he made that video to argue that he shouldn’t be fired since he already admitted wrong doing to US. He wanted to clear his name as being a sexual predator which People clearly asserted in their headline. His wife’s social media was being spammed with messages to divorce him and his is a bad influence on their kids, that’s vile and he deserves the right to defend him self from it.

About the fact that he sent the message after midnight- What time where they filming until that day? It’s very common for tv shows to film into the early morning hours. He could very well have sent the message on set between camera set ups. The timing doesn’t have to mean it was a booty call lol. Also he responded because the media was claiming that he was “ flirting” in his texts. Even if you want to ascribe ulterior motives, the message itself , the only message he claimed , was clean.

None of that is sexual harassment, which is what People magazine claims is what he was fired for and went viral, and is a terrible thing for mainstream media to put out there if not true.

But the message going around social media are claims that he was blatantly flirtly and engaging in sexual harassment. On face value that DM is clearly not either. It does break no contact rules in a competition context but I think it wrong to #metoo him purely on the basis of the banal content of that message.

The academy is duty bound to protect the health and safety of its employees. On Sunday, one of their employees Chris Rock was assaulted on company grounds. My local McDonald’s has given life time bans to customers for less violent conduct than what Will Smith did. Its disingenuous to compare the academy’s policy towards the likes of Cosby to this situation. This is not about the academy as an awards body making a moral opinion about a certain persons character and using that to influence their decision to reward them on their work, this is about a company who just had an assault and battery committed on their site on an employee and deciding the best punishment.

Ah, New Years Eve 2020. I remember it well. The hope, optimism, excitement. It was going to be a great year… Alex and Mitch: A couple of people alluded to Alex having skeletons in her closet regarding Mitch. But I though that her speech at the end of last season covered it enough and that apparently made her a feminists darling so I am not sure what else is there to uncover. Bradley. I don’t understand her sense of betrayal. It is a credit to her that UBA want to keep her to anchor the morning show and move the new guy over. They see her as the face of the show and are relying on her to cause less disruption for the viewers. I am glad that the show is back.

When I look back at my classmates in middle school I can name several who where sexually active and where completely mentally ready to. One time I went to a 13th birthday party of a friend at her house. Another guest the same age as us, aggressively flirted with the hosts older brother. They asked us to distract his mother while they went up to his bed room for half an hour. I have zero regrets of I the role I played. Both of them knew what they where doing even if they where legally underage.

Well strictly in a biological sense human beings have evolved to start reproducing from puberty. The adolescent mind is wried to handle normal, consensual sexual relationships. It’s only quite recently, relatively, that we culturally have disapproved of that for teenagers under 14-18 depending on your country/state. But there is a reason why we also start formal sex ed around 11 in schools and parents give the birds and the bees talk before that.
