@justcaseylikes I think the Broadway production is a prime example of mission drift. What the writers set out to create and what the show eventually became aren’t the same thing. I hope we get something someday like the Caissie Levy N2N, that mines the darkness and the complexity in the text.

@mccue 6. the character from Sling Blade being called "Sling Blade". Not "Karl Childers" or "the guy from Sling Blade", just "Sling Blade". It's like if you thought Wilson The Volleyball was named "Cast Away"

@Lightenerrthang My friend sold it to me as "Twin Peaks + Jaws + Stephen King, with some Parks & Rec thrown in". I loved the show, but this is just dishonest. I'm fatigued by remakes and franchises too, but I also think art is at its best when it's in conversation with what came before it.

@BrndnStrssng Slam Frank is a real musical

Went to see a Steppenwolf show last night, and Glenn Davis was outside making a phone call, and there's a near 100% chance he heard me mutter to my friend "Was that Glenn Davis?"

the legality of AI deepfakes may still be murky, but the legality of copyright infringement sure isn't. @RnH_Legacy, I hope cease-and-desists are one of your favorite things.

NEW: The Trump-aligned org Citizens for Sanity is dropping a six-figure ad buy in the Texas Senate race.

The ad is a 15 second clip of AI-generated James Talarico singing a "trans kids" rendition of “Favorite Things."

•george’s will be a meditative drama about loss and grief
•paul’s will be a cameron crowe-ish slice of life comedic drama
•john’s will be a romantically messy, political drama
•ringo’s will be a shot for shot remake of scooby-doo on zombie island

Hey, that was a funny joke Christine! Let's all go in a circle and name what presidents our husbands have served as advisors for.

I'm screaming at this Tony Award speech LOL I love when people are petty

"Well, I think I should start by thanking Apple TV for ~canceling~ the third season of Schmigadoon the TV show, because without them dropping it we couldn't have picked it up and run with it. So thanks, Apple TV"

Schmigadoon just won 4 Tony Awards from 12 nominations, including Best Musical

@Variety on what planet is it cheaper to film in New York than Oklahoma or Atlanta

@postproctorism My great-grandfather's name was Kukaloff, who came to America as a 7-year-old fleeing the pogroms. I have to imagine his last name was changed to a pejorative for Russian landowners by an Ellis Island clerk who fancied himself a comedian

@JoelIrvine @NYCMayor Totally makes sense to abandon billions of dollars of business to spite a fine that represents 0.3% of the revenue they make in a day

[Alex Kulak @AlexKulak2]

@dude756211 @media_marshall Not necessarily. If they opened the same weekend, maybe. But I saw Obsession earlier this week, going to see Backroom’s in two weeks. I’m in Chicago, where most theaters offer $7 tickets on Tuesdays, so the whole endeavor is gonna cost me $16 with tax

@fandompulse When you’re a writer, you quickly discover that it’s impossible to not include social commentary in your writing. That doesn’t mean the characters stop what they’re doing to lecture each other on animal rights or something, but art is inherently political.

@DannyVegito He described himself as socially liberal, fiscally conservative in a 2013 AMA

@postproctorism Hot take: any revival of Sweet Charity that utilizes the book of Sweet Charity simply cannot be good
