Report for Thursday, Dec 17th

Setting the record straight, last week the London Mirror reported Simon Cowell was still bed ridden which I reported on Monday. Yesterday, the London Mirror reported Simon had recovered and is on vacation in Barbados. Way to go, London Mirror. Reminds me when ABC, NBC and CBS said Gore beat Bush on 2000 election night.

Two more must see TV shows on Apple TV. Earth at Night, an amazing documentary that uses night light cameras to capture what really happens when we are sleeping, It also has drones flying over jungles showing the behavior of nocturnal animals; incredible stuff. … Next, Don’t F**K With Cats: Hunting an Internet Killer, on Netflix. I couldn’t watch if it showed animal cruelty, but it does not. It’s the documentary of a man who does and worse and is caught.

TV News: Paramount Studios have green lighted, Reagan & Gorbachev, a limited series that promises to reveal secrets about the two friends. The great news, it will star Michael Douglas as Reagan and Christoph Waltz as Gorbachev. … Game of Thrones the sequel is a go, set 300 years before the Thrones we’ve already seen and I hear some of Hollywood’s biggest stars will be making bizarre cameos. … Netflix has green lighted Melissa McCarthy and Ben Falcone to produce and star in the comedy, “God’s Favorite Idiot”. Ben talks to God, but gets everything confused. … Airing next week is the last week Alex Trebek recorded Jeopardy. I watched last night and Alex definitely was walking and talking slower. The last Jeopardy episode with Alex will air on Christmas night. Alex died on November 8th.

Ironically just released from Deadline Hollywood, the most 10 influential Hollywood deaths in 2020. They are Chadwick Boseman (42), Kirk Douglas (103), Carl Reiner (98), Olivia De Havilland (104), Regis Philbin (88), Kelly Preston (57), Naya Rivera (33), Kobe Bryant (41), Sean Connery (90) and Alex Trebek (80). 

Reminds me, how about that 77 year old Mick Jagger, already planning his 4 year old son Deverough’s High School graduation party. For the record Mick will be 90.
