It’s still consistently in the top 3 of watched shows though My kid watches it as does my little sister who is 16 and friends. It doesn’t really stand up but it for sure is a loved show That's sad to me because it's so cringe and problematic So are most 80s and 90s movies but people love them. I do think that the generation we are in can watch and know it was set back in a time when things were different and it’s not necessarily great but still like the show

I wrote a couple years back about this family film company that was, essentially, the original Netflix. They were doing the movies-by-mail thing 20 years before anyone else, and they kept doing it until several years back when they got sued out of existence by the government.
Let me now tell you about the man who ran this place, as it was told to me by people who knew him.
He put on the image of a pious, holy man. He was a significant mover and shaker in his particular faith, at least for a while. This was all a cloak, and a transparent one at that. If my sources are to be believed, this man was the Harvey Weinstein of his particular corner of things.
He eventually developed his own self-professed “branch” of his faith, which maintained its traditional belief in polygamy. He did this by claiming to “reform” drug addicts and prostitutes, acting in the role of a divine messenger. He would employ their services and then attempt to “save” them by paying them to leave prostitution - setting them up with credit cards and in some cases even homes, to get them dependent on him. Effectively, he made them his harem of mistresses, and could often be seen in full view of the public hooking up with them in the back of his Lamborghini. He paid off the main body of his faith for years, but was finally excommunicated over these activities.
His de facto wife lived in his $5 million mansion (which buys a lot where he lived) and had a large cabinet full of collectible figurines. He would buy her one every time she caught him cheating on her.
If it’s any consolation, I was told by a former business associate of his that he now lives in a log cabin in the middle of nowhere, having lost everything. Cue the Breaking Bad theme.

August 18, 2023 #3 - May 22, 2020 (Looking back, I'm not sure why I didn't post it because it is not edgy at all. It is cool. I just don't know if anyone will be able to guess it from the clues they gave) I used to live in Seattle, Washington. In my mid 20's (1996-ish) , I was really into the gothic/industrial/fetish music and club scene. My best friend at the time was this super flamboyant gay dude. Every Saturday night we got dressed up in our black PVC to hit our favorite Goth/Fetish club (Called "The Catwalk"). Like most gay divas, my friend takes no less than 127 hours to get ready. It was late by the time we set out and when we got to the club, it was about 12:30 and there was a line wrapped around the club of people waiting to get in. I told him, "If we want to tie one on before last call, we're going to have to find somewhere else". Shirley MacLaine I have read this at least 4 times and still have no idea where Shirley fits into this.

Speaking of the foreign rock band, the reason we haven’t seen any new music from them in so many years, is that the band actually broke up in 2018. The bandleader will never tell you this. In fact, he is threatening legal action against any media outlets who try to say what their fans already know. He knows he screwed up when he consolidated the empire and failed to pay his bandmates their shares. Now he is desperately trying to get the band back together before the truth gets out that they ever broke up. Fat chance.

Yeah that’s where I was thinking it might work, if she was narrating but then saw the age and was confused again. At least she’s being attached to a not bad blind because I wasn’t ready to have Shirley ruined.

Four pieces of crazy gossip from the earliest days of the blog that you probably forgot.
#1 - Can you imagine thinking you were about to marry this former A+ list singer who comes from a family of singers that speak in multiple languages and then end up with the old alcoholic actor who is always peeing himself and got famous because of a car he worked with.
#2 - Prior to getting cheated on by her husband and while she was still single, this A list actress who is an Oscar winner/nominee got drunk at a St. Patrick's Day party at the Sunset Tower hotel and swapped spit with the chain smoking Russian stripper loving Oscar winner/nominee, before going to his room for 45 minutes to have sex. He was in a relationship at the time.
#3 - This A list actor/singer is an Oscar winner/nominee and hopefully on the mend health wise. Don't forget the time he spent an Easter Sunday talking about how the permanent A list "singer" was on heroin, her once upon a time car partner/actress was on crack and how the at the time barely old enough to drive singer who was on Disney at the time and is now an A list singer had a STD.
#4 - The time this A+/A list actor who has directed in the past, threatened to sue a paparazzo because the pap had taken pictures of a naked 13 year old girl in the actor's bedroom in that place he has overseas. No one ever explained who the 13 year old was and why she was naked in the actor's bedroom.
#1 - Hayley Roberts/Enrique Iglesias/Julio Iglesias/David Hasselhoff
#2 - Natalie Portman/Sean Penn/Robin Wright
#3 - Jamie Foxx/Britney Spears/Lindsay Lohan/Miley Cyrus
#4 - George Clooney/Lake Cuomo

This foreign-born B+ list actress who loves to say in every interview that she "turned her back on Hollywood" despite still working in Hollywood, and called the Oscar "a poison" that she doesn't want, and less than a year later was campaigning very hard for an Oscar nomination for a foreign film in which two of her male co-stars were accused of sexual abuse against women and kids - which she helped cover up for despite calling herself a "feminist" while she was having an affair with one of the actors - is now breaking the SAG-AFTRA strike rules by using her social media to promote her past and present films, even the ones that are on streaming services. She's also giving interviews, doing photoshoots and attending festivals and premieres to promote an American film that does not have an agreement with SAG-AFTRA. She also shot a film during the strike without permission from SAG-AFTRA. She thinks she's smart because she uses her Instagram stories to promote those films so they are gone in 24 hours, but she forgot that things can be saved and that she's tagged in posts that show her attending recent events and giving interviews.
This actress also received a controversial tribute award at a major film festival that several A-listers declined to attend out of respect for the SAG-AFTRA strike, even the ones that had an interim agreement that allowed them to attend the festival. No one knows why someone with such a short career in Hollywood (and a short career overall) was chosen to receive a tribute when she's not even that famous and most of her films have flopped. She used to play glorified cameos that were quickly forgotten and wasn't even famous in her own country before Hollywood started pushing her as "the next Meryl Streep". She's an industry plant and her dad still funds her films with taxpayers' money. Word on the street is that her team paid for the award just like they paid major publications to boost an Oscar campaign for the actress and her foreign film the previous year. Some publications even lied about that film being a big office hit when it had actually flopped, and that's why they never ask her about the abusers in the cast that she enabled and are not reporting that she is a SCAB who doesn't care about her fellow actors who are striking and struggling so that people like her can keep making money.
And she's set to receive another tribute at another festival soon. She even paid a New York theater to host a tribute to herself over 3-consecutive days where she's gonna be in attendance every single day.

This former porn star turned almost A- list actress at one point, has a charity which helps former porn stars find legit work when they get out of the business and also helps them get clean if they need that help too.

I'm ready for the surprises and all the fall out for a bunch of rich, old, likely mostly white men. Boo hoo. Your past has come a knockin. Will it knock for Bill Gates?

I want to see the rest I’m waiting for the mental gymnastics of “save the children” T supporters. I wonder who else will be on it, and if it will truly bring anyone down. I feel like our society has become numb to bombshells.

This A list social media star (#1) who also is a judge on a competition show and has millions of followers on social media is in a secret relationship with this B-/C+ list actor (#2) whose claim to fame are a couple of movies a Super Bowl commercial with an A+ list celebrity chef (#3) and working at a Disney park. #2 was previously married to a $15 Cameo actress (#4) and if you get her name then super bonus points. #1 and #2 met at the wedding of this A+ list YouTuber with many millions of followers who used to be a professional athlete (#5). There is a very good chance that #2 cheated on #4 while they were married because if you mention #2 to #4 on social media you immediately get blocked. Apparently, the cheating thing is still big in the life of #2 because even though he is about to elope with #1, he is still on Tinder. #1 forgave #2 the first few times she caught him on there and then he started using a different name. Maybe don't do the whole elope thing? #1 though has already hired a photographer who specializes in elopement weddings. Who knew there was such a thing.
