Just last night news outlets were saying a Game of Thrones prequel would NOT being happening.  But HBO says F you, it is happening. Just not the one we were talking about before with Naomi Watts.

The series, titled House of Dragon, is based on George R R Martin’s 2018 book, Fire and Blood, a companion to the main A Song of Ice and Fire series, which inspired Game of Thrones.

HBO placed a 10-episode, straight-to-series order for the show, which will be set 300 years before the events of Game of Thrones and will tell the story of the House Targaryen, the ruling house into which Emilia Clarke’s GoT character Daenerys Targaryen was eventually born.

No cast has been mentioned, but HBO moves fast, so expect details to come out soon.

There is a lot of talk about shows being rebooted and of course The Office is always on the tip of everyone’s tongue.  But the writers would have to tailor their style somewhat to fit the unique demands of today’s more sensitive viewer.

Netflix says they have taken a scene out of the Season 6 Halloween episode of The Office.  The scene is at the shows open, prior to the opening theme song (known as the cold open) where Michael pretends to have hanged himself.

In the scene Dunder Mifflin Scranton branch has put together a haunted house for local kids in their warehouse.

Michael, unhappy with the lackluster decorations, decides to take things up a notch.  So after some fiddling around, he arranges for himself to drop from the ceiling on a fake noose, wriggling for a moment before imparting a confusing message about seeking mental health care if you need it.

The scene actually upset viewers back in 2009, so it’s certainly going to today. Word is there are uploads of the scene around, but I wasn’t interested in seeing it or looking for it.

Ben Affleck is so patient with the overbearing paps!  Here’s the deal.

So on Saturday night, Ben was seen leaving a Halloween party (pic below) with some chick. Then he’s heard, presumably talking to his driver, saying “We’re right here. Where are you?”.  And then as the two walk to a waiting car Ben was stumbling and appeared drunk.  So ok.

The next day Ben shows up to his ex wife Jennifer Garner’s house to see he kids and these maniacs come at him from the second he steps out of the car.  How do they even know he’ll be there??

And Ben actually stops and takes time to address these vultures like people. (I know. I’m a hypocrite b/c I am looking at the very pictures I condemn them for taking. What can I say? I’m complicated)  So one pap says “That was some party last night” and Ben calmly stops and says “Yea, Well you know it happens, it’s a slip but I’m not going to let it derail me.”  And of course, another yells “Are you going back to rehab?

Comedian Kelly Bachman on stage when she was confronting HW.

Two brave women spotted serial assaulter Harvey Weinstein in the audience of the Downtown Bar Comedy Hour in Manhattan and here’s how it went down.

First the stand up.  Comedian Kelly Bachman was performing on Wednesday night when out in the audience she sees none other than scum Harv sitting with friends and decides to make note of it with a joke.  ” I didn’t know we had to bring our own Mace and rape whistles!” she said.

Several men can then be heard booing and one says “shut up”.   “Oh, shut up?’ Bachman responds from the stage. ‘This kills at group therapy for rape survivors!”  Now come on! That’s when several women in the crowd began to cheer and shout loudly.

Late in a FB post she said she was ‘in shock’ and ‘was shaking and hot-faced’ as she called out Weinstein during her set.  Her stage video and post are here.

She claimed that she was ‘in a traumatized state from her own experiences as a survivor of rape’ and has ‘had nightmares about seeing Harvey Weinstein in New York’.

‘He was 50 feet away from me, staring with shark eyes, surrounded by his allies,’ she said of her time on the stage.

Zoe Stuckless as she confronts HW

After the set a woman named Zoe Stuckless in the audience decided she too was going to call out Harv and from just feet from his table she shouted ‘I’m gonna stand four feet from a f**king rapist and no one’s gonna say anything?’

In a Facebook post, Stuckless says she was incensed by seeing Weinstein at the bar where he was ‘allowed to laugh and clap and drink and flirt and no one was saying anything’.

Stuckless was removed from the premises for disturbing the peace.

It was a HELL of a night.

Seen in Waikiki this weekend

Ughghghghhg… I try so hard to reserve judgement of a person who marries so far below their age, but this is the life of a Hollywood man.  Quaid is setting the bar especially high.  His newly appointed fiance is a year younger than his son, Jack, who’s 27.

According to most outlets Quaid and gf Laura Savoie got engaged while on a steamy and buff trip to Hawaii.  This weekend they were seen paddle boarding in Waikiki and between them they seem to have 3 times the number of muscles a person can have.

This would be his 3rd marriage. No word on if the lovely (And way intelligent, she’s a PHD student) Laura has been married before, but it’s not likely.

I think it’s clear from the number of posts I gleefully make that I’m a friends fan. So I love almost everything about this. I’m NOT ok with the live monkey on set.  Ok, so that aside… this is wild.

The installation was commissioned by Warner Bros. Television to commemorate the ongoing festivities for the 25th anniversary of “Friends.”  It took just shy of 1,000,000 bricks to put together and it’s steller.

Lego brick artist Nathan Sawaya spent 4 months building the exhibit at the New York-New York Hotel & Casino.
