I want to know why CZ, of all of them, was the one who let him back in.
Because C.Z. Guest understood some things were better left unsaid when talking with Truman Capote.

The 2024 Academy Awards In Memoriam*
*Posted on YouTube by ABC News which aired The Oscars, although apparently the original music used as edited out. IMO, this is one of the worst In Memoriam's The Oscars have done. At this rate, they'll soon have a singer do an entire set for the In Memoriam then flash a sign with the names of the deceased when they're done.
Updated: ABC has now included the original music/sound.

As an aficionado of the original Perry Mason TV series, I recognize Anne Whitfield from a favorite episode: The Case of the Crafty Kidnapper (with an appearance by Cloris Leachman too!). May Ms. Whitfield rest in peace.

I read Carlin's family are suing. I hope others follow suit bc this will only get worse and grosser.
The AI generated/deepfake porn of Taylor Swift that circulated on the Internet is further proof how correct you are. Good luck to the Carlin family.

She was great in A Little Night Music.
I absolutely adore A Little Night Music. While many point out Send in the Clowns, my favorite is this exchange from You Must Meet My Wife where Len Cariou's Fredrik explains to Johns' Desiree his marriage to a much younger woman:
QuoteFREDRIK:
She flutters.
DESIREE:
How charming.
FREDRIK:
She twitters.
DESIREE:
My word!
FREDRIK:
She floats.
DESIREE:
Isn't that alarming?
What is she, a bird?
FREDRIK:
She makes me feel I'm--what?--
DESIREE:
A very old man.
FREDRIK:
Yes--no!R.I.P. Ms. Johns.

R.I.P. Bill Hayes. There was a time when, even if you didn't watch a particular soap opera, you had an awareness of who a show's stars were. Such was the case with Bill Hayes as Doug Williams on Days of Our Lives.
Actor Bryan Cranston left the following tribute to Hayes in Deadline's comment section:
QuoteBryan Cranston on January 12, 2024 10:19 pm
One of my first professional acting jobs was on Days of Our Lives. It was 1980 and I won a 3 day gig on the show. My first day was a disaster. I failed to fully extend the stem on my alarm clock and missed my call time…Panicked, I raced to NBC and arrived over two hours late…I was embarrassed, and failed in my first attempt at making a positive impression. I missed the rehearsal of my two scenes, and the irritated stage manager arranged for an assistant to give me a quick review of the blocking, then I was on my own. Trying not to fall into a shame spiral, I was alone in my tiny dressing room when there was a knock on the door. I opened it to see Bill Hayes – the star of the show. For a moment I thought he was coming to fire me personally! Instead, he said some comforting words, commiserating with my situation, and asked if I wanted to know the backstory to the character and the scene. I was shocked. He spent 20 minutes helping a stranger to feel a little less humiliated. He really cheered me up. I will never forget his kindness and patience. From that moment, I think of Bill whenever I see an actor in need. Bill Hayes was a Prince, and a damn fine actor. Rest now, Bill, and thank you.

Season 2 - Feud: Capote vs The Swans
in Feud
Well, IRL was Capote actually witty/funny or was he simply catty about others and the swans loved it? That is, until the leopards came to eat their faces.
