I see you’ve written and directed a couple of episodes of Stargate SG-1 in the past....

Actor Jonathan Groff has teased the possibility of a third season of the fan-favorite Netflix series, Mindhunter. Appearing recently on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Groff was asked what was more likely, Frozen 3 or Mindhunter Season 3?

So, while a third season of Mindhunter was seemingly dead in the water, this should provide at least some hope that Groff’s Holden Ford and Holt McCallany’s Bill Tench will return to interview more serial killers in the name of entertainment....

This was one of the summer flicks I was really looking forward to. The trailer was insanely hilarious and I was looking forward to see what Jared and Jerusha Hess could do with Jack Black and Mike White. Both factions have proven their comic talent, with the Hesses responsible for the wonderful Napoleon Dynamite and Black and White (which is the name of their prodco) have teamed up on various projects, the best of which, I think, is School of Rock, which White wrote and Black starred in....

Davidson ruffled feathers further by admitting that he knew Crenshaw wore an eyepatch because he lost an eye in the war in Afghanistan, apathetically saying, “Whatever....
