Television has lost one its biggest comedy names — James Burrows, the most decorated multi-camera director in the history of the medium, passed away in his sleep this morning, June 19, after a brief illness. He was 85.
His 50+-year career will remain unmatched — both in longevity and influence as he played a crucial role in some of television’s biggest hits, including ‘Cheers,’ which he also co-created, ‘Taxi,’ ‘Friends,’ ‘Frasier,’ ‘Will & Grace,’ ‘Two and a Half Men’ and ‘The Big Bang Theory.’

@slowdisaster80 Hahah she was like um she's not answering me! But at least you were able to get tickets for all the shows. They were going so fast! There were so many presales and they were all a mess lol
@slowdisaster80 there are sooo many good songs they could sing! yess see you saturday! our seats are not too far apart so we'll have to meet up! are you going friday too?
So let me get this straight.
Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.
Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.
Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.
Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.
And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”
Please.
The only business I engaged in was selling my paintings. I averaged about $225k per year in income over the 4 years of my Dad’s presidency. Now you may be outraged by that but where is your outrage over Don Jr opening a private members club next to the White House called the Executive Branch club where the stated purpose is to rub shoulders with senior White House officials and Cabinet members. And the initiation fee is $500,000. Where is your outrage over Peter Navarro calling from inside the WH to push the Pentagon to grant the largest loan it has ever made to any company for a rare earth startup backed by Don Jr. Where is your outrage when Donald Trump took a Boeing 747 from the government of Qatar. Four hundred million dollars. Over a billion dollars in tax payer money for upgrades. The most valuable gift any foreign government has ever given the United States. And when he leaves office, it goes to his library.
He sued his own IRS for ten billion dollars and settled. And the settlement declares the IRS, and I am quoting the filing here, is “forever barred” from pursuing its audits of him, his family, and his companies.
Q: “Now that you’ve met with [Trump], you’ve spoken with him multiple times, do you still think he’s a fascist?”
Zohran Mamdani: “Yes”
Q: “And do you tell him that?”
Zohran Mamdani: “Yes”
In the past week, Donald Trump has threatened nuclear war against Iran, called for the genocide of 93 million Iranians, publicly attacked the Pope, and compared himself to Jesus Christ.
Recall July of 2024 when every pundit and reporter in American media were urging President Biden to step down due to concerns over his cognitive health.
Where are those voices now? Where are the demands for Trump to be removed? Where is the flood of op-eds and cable news panels and social media posts calling for the 25th Amendment to be triggered?
Why are you all so silent on this?
9 years ago.
@HillaryClinton warned us:
“This is not someone who should ever have the nuclear codes – because it’s not hard to imagine Donald Trump leading us into a war just because somebody got under his very thin skin.”
Kamala Harris called it in 2019: “This president is motivated by his personal insecurities more than he is our national security. If this president is thinking about putting us in a position where we’re in a war with Iran, the consequences will be absolutely unacceptable and tragic in terms of the young men and women who are American soldiers who would be sent and deployed into something that was completely avoidable”
Macaulay Culkin pays tribute to the late Catherine O’Hara:
“Mama.
I thought we had more time.
I wanted more.
I wanted to sit in a chair next to you.
I heard you.
But I had so much to say.
I love you.
I’ll see you later.”
