EXCLUSIVE: Netflix has set a killer cast for Spiderhead, landing Chris Hemsworth, Miles Teller and Lovecraft Country’s Jurnee Smollett to star in the Joseph Kosinski-directed adaptation of the George Saunders short story. Script is by Zombieland and Deadpool scribes Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick.
*  *  *
Spiderhead is set in the near future, when convicts are offered the chance to volunteer as medical subjects in hopes of shortening their sentences. The focus is on two prisoners who become the test patients for emotion-altering drugs that force the prisoners to grapple with their pasts in a facility run by a brilliant visionary who supervises the program.

This is cool - did you know there used to be a Superman musical? ...

In Rehearsal With "It's a Bird... It's a Plane... It's Superman"
Playbill   Nov 1, 2013

Quote

... From the songwriters of "Bye Bye Birdie," "It's a Bird... It's a Plane... It's Superman," a satiric musical look at the DC Comics hero, ran for 129 performances on Broadway in 1966. City Center Encores! brings back the Charles Strouse (music) and Lee Adams (lyrics) musical March 20-24 for a concert version that will keep the swingin' '60s sound and the frisky humor intact. Stars Edward Watts (Superman/Clark Kent) Jenny Powers (Lois Lane) and cast, along with director John Rando and choreographer Joshua Bergasse ("Smash"), met the media to preview three tunes — "It's Superman," "You've Got Possibilities" and  "It's Super Nice" —  and chat about bringing the campy musical oddity out of obscurity and down to earth.

4. Olicity Ultra Fine Cheesecloth

There’s enough cheesecloth here to craft a convincing ghost costume—and have enough left over to poach some fish or make your own wine. Sold as a five-yard bolt, Olicity’s cheesecloth is made from pure unbleached and undyed natural cotton. The high Grade 90 designation means it’s both durable and versatile, and can be washed and reused multiple times. Whether you’re using it for cooking or cleaning, this option will trap and keep out impurities.

This is the most hilarious thing I've watched so far this year. Apparently the lawyer had borrowed his assistant's computer for this Zoom court hearing and didn't realize that the assistant's daughter had turned on a kitty filter when she used it...

Interesting...

When Lewis Carroll – And Humpty Dumpty – Created The Portmanteau

So next time you see discussions about the bromance of Stucky (two portmanteaus in one), or the likes of Olicity and Deckerstar, know that it is all the fault of one Lewis Carroll. And a big, fat, rambunctious egg.

Upfront & NewFront 2021 Schedules: Broadcast, Cable & Podcast Companies Set Virtual Lineups
By Nellie Andreeva, Dade Hayes   April 30, 2021 
https://deadline.com/feature/upfront-schedule-broadcast-newfronts-cable-podcasts-1234745416/

For a second year in a row, the May TV Upfront and digital NewFronts presentations are going virtual as the U.S. still deals with the effects from the coronavirus pandemic. Once again, there are no parties and other festivities that typically accompany the lavish in-person presentations. And the events during the traditional upfront week continue to expand, with the former NBC, CBS, ABC and TNT/TBS events now showcasing all ad-supported businesses of NBCUniversal, ViacomCBS, Disney and WarnerMedia, respectively, including streamers.
*  *  *
The biggest change to the Upfront Week schedule this year is the CW’s decision to skip it and do a press conference the following week. Because of the fireworks expected by the big congloms presenting the week of May 17, the move likely was designed to avoid upfront fatigue by going last on Thursday of that week. As for presenting to advertisers, the CW has been doing that in private meetings and will continue to do so as its fall 2021 schedule takes shape.

Quote

1. "When something happens to the main protagonist that is supposed to make you think they're dead, but there's still an hour left in the movie so you know they're alive."
*  *  *
2. "Bombs with a digital countdown clock, apparently put there as a courtesy to anyone trying to disarm it."
*  *  *
6. "Whenever they hack a computer or equipment, it's always quick and easy with just a few key presses."
*  *  *
7. "Creepy, stalkerish obsession and harassment being portrayed as 'romantic.'"
*  *  *
9. "Main character fights their way through enemy base killing 200 henchpeople in the process. Then, when they reach the villain, they refuse to kill because 'it would make me just as bad as them.'"
*  *  *
11. "Some scientist or doctor says something deliberately 'smart,' and another character asks for it to be repeated 'in English.'"

Happy 10-year anniversary of when Arrow started, everyone! Lots of nostalgia happening on twitter, so I thought I'd stop by here since the board is why I stuck with the show for as long as I did. Miss you all and hope you're doing well! (Thanks for still holding down the fort, @tv echo 😄)
