The Good What makes this show unique is Sarah Silverman’s uncompromising look at the world. The Bad Ultimately, I just found the songs and Silverman’s comic delivery to be annoying. I had a bit of a tough time with Sarah Silverman: Jesus Is Magic, mainly because this DVD is a pastiche of staged singing performances, mixed with Silverman performing her act. I found her songs so annoying that that has impacted why I probably will never watch this DVD again....

Following the success of this year’s Scream 5 “requel,” another sequel was almost immediately greenlit. Scream 6 is one of the most anticipated horror sequels of 2023, with most of the survivors of Scream 5 returning for more Ghostface shenanigans.

Steve Carell is heading back to space, as the comedy series Space Force has been renewed for a second season at Netflix. In an effort to reduce the costs of producing the pricey series, production will also be moved from Los Angeles to Vancouver with plans to begin filming in 2021. When it was ordered to series last year, Space Force set a record for talent with Carell earning over $1 million per episode for co-creating, executive producing, and starring in the lead role, so developing the series is very expensive....

There are probably two ways you can watch Sam Peckinpah’s Straw Dogs, the 1971 psychological thriller based on Gordon M. Williams’ novel The Siege of Trencher’s Farm, and a complicated target for film rating boards who couldn’t simply release the film in its purest form. We’ll get to that later. You could just watch it as a well-made action film with a cinematography that’s gritty, sweaty, and claustrophobic. Dustin Hoffman is fantastic in the film, and it does well for an introductory part of his career....

HOLLYWOOD LABOR PEACE: ARE WE THERE YET? The Screen Actors Guild national board on Sunday voted to approve a new two-year contract with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers – but by a margin so slim that it raised questions about whether it would be approved by the overall membership. The agreement, which passed by a margin of 53 percent to 47 percent, differed little from the last, final offer from the AMPTP except that it will remain in force only until 2011 instead of 2012, thereby allowing SAG to coordinate a successor agreement with other industry unions....

THE PEACOCK FLIES AGAIN NBC, which once dominated the weekly Nielsen ratings but which had fallen to has-been status in recent years, was back on the victors’ stand again thanks to its coverage of the Summer Olympics in Beijing. Friday’s opening ceremonies and the weekend competition trounced everything else in sight and gave the network its best ratings in nearly three years. With just those three days of Olympics telecasts, NBC was able to finish the week with three times the audience of its closest competitor....

EX-CNN CHIEF TO FLY PRO-WAR BLOGGERS TO IRAQ Former CNN news chief Eason Jordan has invited conservative bloggers Michelle Malkin and Curt (who does not disclose his surname) of FloppingAces.com, to fly to Iraq at Jordan’s expense to investigate a controversial Associated Press report claiming that Shiite militiamen burned alive six Sunnis as they left worship services last month. U.S. military officials denied the story as well as the existence of the A....

PREZ SCORES LOW WITH LAME REMARK ON LENO President Obama, who has been faulted for having a teleprompter erected in front of him at virtually every public appearance, may wish he had had one operating during his interview with Jay Leno on Thursday night’s Tonightshow. During a light discussion of Obama’s notoriously poor bowling skills, the president remarked, “It’s like, it was like Special Olympics or something.” Almost immediately after the show, the White House issued a statement saying that the president had “in no way intended to disparage the Special Olympics....
