DVOzsPRRIqXsTQ You BASTARDS. I’ve been trying valiantly to tone down the whole language bit, but frankly, there’s not a whole lot of equivalents for “bastard”. That and they can say it on network TV–watch an episode of South Park and see–so I’m feeling all right about it. Anyway, that aside, the reason I’m seething with rage is a little movie called Dark Floors, which I later learned was subtitled “The Lordi Motion Picture”....

How did you come up with the idea for Burn Notice? Matt Nix: Well, I had been friends with a guy who’s a consulting producer on the show now, named Michael Wilson, for some time. He had worked in the private intelligence industry. I’d sort of been kicking around ideas for something that took place in that world for some time. One of the things that stood out for me in my conversations with Michael Wilson was that he was always giving me advice about what to do if I ever found myself in a situation where I needed to use hollow point rounds and armor piercing rounds, that it was always a good idea to put a tracer round in there as well so that you knew when you were about to run out of ammunition, things like that....
Rock singer and actor Meat Loaf, best known for his Bat Out of Hell albums and playing Eddie in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, has died at the age of 74. The star, who has had a tumultuous life littered with health issues, passed away after his family spent time with him during the last 24 hours. The man who was often described as being larger than life exploded onto the music scene later in life than most, and as someone who never set out to be a singer ended up making one of the biggest and most iconic records of all time with frequent collaborator, Jim Steinman, who himself only passed away last year....
Love Sausage originally showed up in the comic series by Garth Ennis that The Boys is adapted from. There he is described as an enormous Russian man with an even more enormous Russian organ.

We had a couple of the drafts written, but then we sometimes reach a point, as we did in this one, where we said, ‘You know what?...

Generation X had MTV, the first channel of its kind to play music videos 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Generation Z has a multitude of streaming platforms and grew up on YouTube.
