The sketch comedy was eh, but Fridays forced SNL to up its game when it came to booking musical guests. Edited April 12, 2022 by J.T. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I presume the devotees of [that show] know it since both Larry David and Michael Richards were on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.H. Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 The first time I learned about The Clash was on Fridays. Their live "Train In Vain" was a like opening a new book James 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister TV Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Hasbro's Youtube channel is running a 24/7 stream of the G.I. Joe cartoon, I've been randomly watching 30ish seconds every hour or so the past few days, its like the Walker Texas Ranger lever from Conan. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.H. Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 While I've loved the first 3 episodes of Tokyo Vice, Ken Watanabe's hairpiece is really distracting. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuetsar Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I think Andy Kaufman doing the off script thing is the most famous thing that happened on Fridays. I know it was a thing, but I was a toddler when it was on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted April 12, 2022 Author Share Posted April 12, 2022 Couple of casting notes from Disney+ converting movies into TV shows Walker Scobell (who was the kid in The Adam Project) has been cast as Percy Jackson in the yet unnamed series based on the Percy Jackson books. Justin Bartha will reprise his role as Riley Poole in the National Treasure series the network is doing (they are calling it a guest role) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me way too long to realize you meant Conan O'Brien. I was baffled trying to figure out how that particular pop-culture mashup could have occurred.

Craig H Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Boy...That Billions finale was...kinda dumb? They're trying so hard to turn Michael Prince into a heel. His character is basically Andrew Yang if Andrew Yang kept billions of dollars in crypto. Also, who fucking cares? Oh no, the billionaire who has a legit plan for universal basic income and would fund it through his billions in hidden crypto isn't paying taxes on the crypto, therefore he's just as evil as Trump? Really? That's the direction they're going in? I don't understand why this show keeps trying to position Chuck as the face in all of this. Chuck is a complete dick who has no ability to see things in anything other than black and white. And he's turned more and more into a dick as the series has gone on. I highly doubt Prince is as perfect as he tries to be, but compared to most people who run for president, he's practically a saint. The guy champions social issues and equality and is anti-corruption with how the firm is run. Even all of the douchebag, ultra rich, Trumpers have turned on him. But he's the heel all because he let Bobby get away? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Not sure if this goes here or in another thread but I'll put it here anyway. Frank Langella has been fired from Netflix's The Fall of the House of Usher series for on-set misconduct. He was cast as the lead. His part will be recast and his scenes re-shot. https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment/news/frank-langella-fired-from-netflix-s-fall-of-the-house-of-usher/ar-AAWdrRW?li=BBorjTa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
