Depending on what "this" is, me, I was asking for this. ๐ (Asking might be strong. But I'm intrigued!)

Is this protracted "Firefly" tease stressing anybody else out? You say "Shiny," and I think "Well my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.โ
Wildly overinvested and thus, relieved. Solid monologue!
My friend and I waited thru the entire credits. We couldn't believe it. The antithesis of TCBโก๏ธ
EPiC (Elvis Presley in Concert) is legit stunning (& not just a concert doc ftr.) I was vibrating walking out of the theatre. You don't have to be a huge Elvis (or Baz) fan to appreciate it. A good reminder of the MUSICIAN at the center of the myth and the maelstrom. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2s_d...
"When a Dropkick Murphy is born or dies" = the actual meaning of "Shipping Up to Boston." (whoa-oh-oh)
Gentle reminder:
Buffy = Summers
Donna = Summer
Who else rewound that Harrison Ford entrance on this week's "Shrinking" multiple times? I laughed so hard and cried just a little too. Show is KILLING it this season. Give Jessica Williams all the awards.
OH NO. I was literally talking about him YESTERDAY.
Duvall gone almost a year to the day from Hackman. Hope those two are chopping it up all gruff and charming and taciturn and handsome wherever they are. Do not sleep on THX 1138. Good night, Gus. Lonesome Dove tonight it is.
Having Lalah sing her Dad's part on "The Closer I Get to You" in this Roberta Flack tribute?? Standing O for whoever arranged this segment from start to finish. (And giving Roberta her propers.)
Wherever they may be, Ozzy and D'Angelo definitely felt that.
Loving the respect being given to Joni and Carole tonight.
Love this for Olivia Dean. This was my most played album from this group. If you haven't checked it out yet, try the fizzy, touch-of-Bacharach "So Easy (To Fall in Love)"

Having all of the Best New Artist nominees perform back to back like this is a, perhaps inadvertent, illustration of the futility of comparing art. It's not just apples and oranges, it's kiwis and pineapples. But what an interesting class. (Rooting for Olivia)
Joni Mitchell on hand to accept the Best Historical Album receives a standing ovation, not realizing she has won at first is so endearing and going on a shambolic speech talking about David Crosby, the LA Express, David Geffen & putting "a big horse's ass on Sunset for awhile" is just too much fun.
It is hard to imagine that anything is going to top Tyler Childers winning Best Country Song for "Bitin' List." Stupendous.

Amy Allen just won Songwriter of the Year Non-Classical, an award she won last year as well. (She co-wrote songs by Olivia Dean, Sabrina Carpenter and Bruno Mars & Rose among others). She notes in her speech "To the labels out there: Songwriters should all be receiving points." Amen.
SINNERS just won two Grammys back to back for Ludwig Goransson and his various collaborators - including Ryan Coogler - for Best Compilation Soundtrack and Best Score Soundtrack. Auspicious!
It may have been an Oscar shut out but Cynthia Erivo & Ariana Grande win the day's first Grammy for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for "Defying Gravity."
For interested parties, the Grammy "Premiere Ceremony" - where they actually give out the lion's share of the awards - starts at 12:30 PT here. If you're interested in anything beyond the big all-genre categories, this show is reliably fun.

RIP Cuts
Love this too!
Sometimes, when I'm feeling blue, I just watch this scene and I instantly feel better. It's like a perfect pop song as a movie clip.

My TV wish for 2026: For the Kings to cast Alyson Hannigan as a niece/cousin/heretofore-unmentioned younger sister for Elsbeth. She can be recurring, like Carrie was on Good Wife/Fight. (I mean, yes, as Willow on the Buffy reboot too.) They could bond over vampire experiences.
Anyone else feeling bereft, these titles incl in streaming subs:
Disney+: The Princess Bride
Netflix: Stand By Me
Starz on Hulu: When Harry Met Sally
HBO Max: This Is Spinal Tap; Spinal Tap II: The End Continues; Albert Brooks: Defending My Life (great doc)
Almost all others avail for $$ on TVOD
Maybe if you make a bunch of other lists and force yourself to whittle them down, this list will look stronger by comparison?
I am so glad you found each other in this life! May his memory be an (extreme) blessing. โค๏ธ
All movies have loads of variables wrt response, but I'm obsessed with the various subsets for Deliver Me From Nowhere: how big a Bruce fan you are, your feelings on Nebraska, do you watch the Bear & more. Even people w/identical Venn diagrams could have different responses. Here for ALL the takes.
Cannot love this enough!
Outstanding piece about one of the most universally-acclaimed but under-discussed talents of his generation. The range! The heart! The piece is smart, funny, poignant, REAL. Laura gets the goods. Excited to read and hear his upcoming memoir "Vagabond."
