  1. Now, at least as of yesterday, after posting the original "Chris Rock's rewriting his part of the Oscars" article link, his Publicist is DENYING that's what's happening. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/chris-rocks-rep-shuts-down-858985

  3. That's sad. RIP Mr. Vigoda. If your cable/satellite TV channel package includes Antenna TV, they air Barney Miller repeats. You might keep your eyes out for a Fish-centric marathon of eps in the near future.
  4. He's been voicing Yellow for over 20 years too. I can't believe it's been that long, but that's what he said in the article I linked above. It'd be perfect, for me, if Yellow were the Milk Chocolate/Plain M&M instead of the Peanut. Yellow's my favorite color & Milk Chocolate/Plain 1 of my favorite M&M variations.
  5. From EW.com: Timothy Omundson does his best Matthew McConaughey impression. http://www.ew.com/article/2016/01/26/galavant-timothy-omundson-matthew-mcconaughey-impression
  6. Entertainment Weekly briefly interviews JK Simmons about voicing the role of the villain in Kung Fu Panda 3 & winning the Oscar last year. http://www.ew.com/article/2016/01/26/kung-fu-panda-3-jk-simmons
  7. Chris Rock is still hosting the Oscars, despite recent calls for him to boycott over the diversity issue, as a POC. He's currently rewriting the show to include comments on the diversity/#OscarsSoWhite issue. http://variety.com/2016/film/news/chris-rock-oscars-diversity-1201687097/

  9. Responding to the bolded. Way back in S1, in the ep with the severed head in the box, there was a radio in whichever car Chin & Kono were driving around in at the beginning of the ep, as I remember (I haven't seen the ep in awhile, but I think it was Kono's Cruze). They were driving around part of Honolulu that Chin told Kono was part of his "beat" when he was with HPD & a call came over the radio having to do with pursuit of a car for something, which Chin & Kono joined in, acknowledging that over the radio; then the car eventually crashed, causing the trunk to open & the box with the severed head to fall out onto the street/road where the severed head was found by Kono (this was also the ep where we met Chin's ex-fiancée & eventual wife, Malia, who was a Doctor--apparently an Oncologist--who was treating the beheading victim as a Cancer patient). There was also a voice over of Steve directing a Five-0 chase of a suspect, via a police radio (telling Chin where to go to cut off the guy, I think it was), over a chase scene in another early episode. I think it was in the ep where the daughters of the US Ambassador to the Philippines were kidnapped & 1 was killed, while in Hawaii on vacation, but I'm not positive. So there were at least 2 instances involving police radios in Five-0 vehicles that I remember. But they seem to only use radios when it's "convenient" or adds something to a scene, or when the writers remember they probably should have/use them; not as a "routine" like in older cop shows, like Starsky & Hutch, where Starsky's & Hutch's cars--which were used for both work & as their personal vehicles, like in Five-0--have the radios in them even when the guys are on their own time & not working.
  10. The History of the Eagles is on CNN & their HD channel TONIGHT, January 23rd, at 8PM Eastern/7PM Central, & again at 10:30PM Eastern/9:30PM Central.
  11. An article discussing the changes the Academy plans to make to encourage more diversity. Some of the longstanding members speak out. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/race/academys-new-voting-rules-raise-858388?utm_source=twitter

  13. And Grover explained he'd changed course, if you will, in the middle of things at his ex-friend Clay's house. He said he realized, especially after his last trip to Chicago when he couldn't get anything out of his old colleagues at the Chicago PD about what Clay had been up to (he came back from Chicago, with a suitcase full of Chicago-Style Deep Dish Pizza--I think they actually said/it was supposed to have been from Lou Malnati's, a real Chicago restaurant known for their pizza--at the beginning of the [s5, I think] ep involving the murder of the Elvis impersonator at the Elvis Convention), that he couldn't "get" Clay on the murder of his wife, despite his gut feeling about it, the evidence was thin to non-existent, but he knew Clay had done other stuff, like taking some of the cash from a drug bust, which Grover was eventually able to prove since the money was hidden in a rusted out & patched over part of Clay's old car--which was lovingly parked in Clay's garage while Clay's new car sat in the driveway, exposed to the Chicago elements & who knows what else. Grover was at the point where he didn't care if he sent Clay to prison for killing his wife, as long as he could send him to prison for something else he'd take that. And Grover ended up being able to do that--like I said, & they said in the ep, he knew Clay had stolen some drug money during a bust & was eventually able to find it in Clay's house. So he got to at least send him to prison for something.
  14. Steve & Danny were having a competition with Chin & Kono as to the fastest way to get back to town, specifically to Iolani Palace, from the North Shore, with the loser paying for All-You-Can-Eat Wings & Beer at Side Street (a real Honolulu restaurant which has been mentioned in previous episodes, & which has been frequented by show staffers like Lenkov when they're in town). Steve thought he could get there faster by using Highway 83 (which, according to the post-ep blog I read every week in the Honolulu Star-Advertiser--written by a Hawaii native--is Kamehameha Highway headed toward the Windward side of the island); Chin thought a faster way was by cutting through the coffee fields in Waialua/service roads/old cane haul roads used by the plantation trucks to haul sugar cane on the North Shore. That's what Steve & Danny were doing on real roads & Chin & Kono were doing in the middle of nowhere.
  15. The History of the Eagles is re-airing on Showtime TONIGHT, January 21st, at 7:55PM Eastern/6:55PM Central, & Saturday night, January 23rd, at 6PM Eastern/5PM Central.
  16. Has anyone tried Ben & Jerry's Spectacular Speculoos Cookie Core Ice Cream? Did(n't) you like it? Just curious.
  17. Anna Deavere Smith's in it too. But she doesn't play the National Security Adviser. And Joshua Malina's also in it. He doesn't play the Deputy Communications Director or the Communications Director. His character doesn't even work in the White House.
  18. Bob Tuschman's leaving Food Network. http://variety.com/2016/tv/news/food-network-bob-tuschman-deirdre-ohearn-cooking-channel-1201684940/
  19. Small point, with respect: In this case, the word's "trouper".
  20. Will's been getting timeouts since sort of soon after he got home. I remember an early episode after he got to Houston where Jen was trying to teach him how to paint--they'd already put Zoey's adoption into motion, but were still waiting for all the bureaucratic stuff to go through so they could go get her in India, & Jen wanted him to make a painting for her. He got tired of that & started melting down. I think Jen then tried to get him to take a nap, but he wanted to play with a toy car instead (he was still calling them "beep beep"s then) & he went to do that but he spilled the paint, got mouthy, or maybe he hit Jen (anyway, he disobeyed). And she put him in timeout for it--at least back then, I think Jen's "talking head" said it was 1 minute of timeout for each year of your age, so it was, like, 3 minutes because he was 3 when it happened. And when it was done he got to go back to playing with his car.
  21. She's an actress. She was in HBO's The Newsroom, X-Men: Apocalypse, Magic Mike, Iron Man 2 & the current Ride Along 2 (which I assume she may have been promoting on the show), among other things. She's also the girlfriend of Green Bay Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
  22. Robert & Kym are still together, in case anyone's interested. Even though the headline's about their relationship, the article's more about promoting Kym's new 5678 diet & exercise plans. http://www.people.com/article/dancing-stars-kym-johnson-talks-boyfriend-robert-herjavec
  23. Daniel Dae Kim will make his Broadway debut during what's hopefully part of the hiatus between S6 & S7. He will take the role of the King of Siam in the current revival of The King and I, playing at Lincoln Center Theatre in NYC, from May 3rd through June 26th (ending his run early enough to get back to Honolulu in time for shooting to begin on S7 in early July, should the show go to S7). http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/daniel-dae-kim-make-broadway-857528?utm_source=twitter
  24. Rob's brother, actor-director Chad Lowe, is directing Delusions of Grinder, the episode of the show that's currently in production for airing sometime next month (February), apparently. http://www.ew.com/article/2016/01/19/grinder-chad-lowe-direct-rob-lowe And here's a link to an on-set selfie of the brothers, posted to Rob's Twitter in the last few minutes as I write this. https://twitter.com/roblowe/status/689605465701879808
  25. As was said, the McPick 2 menu is replacing the Dollar & More menu. And the mozzarella sticks came with that menu.
