Oh this is Malcolm Merlyn right? When he says, "it's probably the only time I'll be bi" is he saying he's gay or straight? I feel like he's gay. Which is cool.

He's totally gay. Married to a guy and everything. It won't stop him from eating pussy though, when he's wired enough.

That kind of "accent switching" is not uncommon though, I know lots of people just from different regions in the US who will speak differently depending on who they talk to. My parents and aunts/uncles were mostly born in the Caribbean and my wife tells me I pick up a bit of an accent when I talk to them, but I don't even notice it.

IIRC he adlibbed that line because he was having issues with the actress just not reacting to anything so he just threw that out there to get something from her.

I think Sirens is creeping up next to Brooklyn 99 as my favorite comedy on the air. This season's been pretty outstanding and they really worked out the kinks with the writing from early season 1.

I don't think pictures with celebrities are terribly interesting normally, and I don't have any interest in gay stuff, but I'd totally let John Barrowman cup my nuts for a photo. I mean it's a conversation piece if nothing else.

The conversation being:

"Who's that?"
"Its John Barrowman."
"Why is he cupping your balls?"
"I thought it would be funny."
"You thought taking a picture of a stranger cupping your balls would be funny?"
"He's not a stranger, he's a famous actor."
"Oh, really? What has he been in?"
"Torchwood."
"Never heard of it."
"Its a British television show spun off from Doctor Who."
"What's Doctor Who?"
"Its a popular British children's show about a predatory old man and his jailbait assistants."
"I see.." *slowly backs away*

I've never seen doctor who, and I don't plan on ever watching it. And I know Joe is trolling about the jailbait stuff, but it's a little sickening that you would make a joke about not actually seeing a problem. It's akin to defending Aatrek. I'm disappointed in you IRQ. :(

Boomerang has been marathoning Bugs Bunny cartoons all weekend, so I've had it on in the background today while I catch up on some work. One episode that caught me by surprise was "Ballot Box Bunny" where Yosemite Sam and Bugs are running against each other for mayor of a wild west town, only to both get beaten out by a horse ("Dark horse?" "Mare?").

I always remembered it ending there watching it as a kid, but then it kept going and ended with Bugs and Sam deciding to play russian roulette out of nowhere. I looked it up on Wikipedia to make sure I wasn't crazy not remembering that part, and found this fun tidbit:

quote:

One local station left the first part of the ending scene intact, but edited the short by ending it just as Bugs puts the gun to his head and the cartoon irises out, deleting the scene of Bugs missing and shooting Yosemite Sam instead. Because of the darker implications of this edit (that Bugs committed suicide, rather than having blasted Yosemite Sam), this edited version has only aired once.

Which seems hilarious because if every other station that aired the episode cut the bit entirely, why would one edit things to make it more hosed up?

Well that's my story, enjoy your Easter.

Half the posters in this forum have been made up. This website is a goddamn ghost town.

quote:

"We were saddened to read David Lynch's statement today, since we believed we were working towards solutions with David and his reps on the few remaining deal points," the statement read. "Showtime also loves the world of Twin Peaks, and we continue to hold out hope that we can bring it back in all its glory with both of its extraordinary creators, David Lynch and Mark Frost, at its helm."

So Showtime thinks they can possibly get him to come back?

That usually means the budget for the show was inadequate for what they had scripted. Which is strange considering Twin Peaks should be a cheap show to produce.

Plenty of people have spent longer naked and hairless in the desert for nothing. And just statistically speaking, most of them were probably better actors.

Maybe they needed more money because they were going to spend it to literally resurrect Killer Bob.
