Just finished the premiere of the new ESPN 30 for 30 doc, ‘Venus Vs.’, directed by Ava DuVernay. It’s a good doc; all of this happened in our lifetimes, but I know I’m not the only one who kind of takes for granted now how much ground Venus broke within our generation. The main […]
First, thanks to everyone who came out for the last run of Natalie Portman. Last night especially we had one more close to full house and we went out a high note which is how you always want to go. It sounds like the gang will be reuniting later this year for a new project, […]

The beauty of sketch comedy and improv is every […]
A fantastic character actor who turned one of those characters into one of the all time great TV characters. R.I.P. James Gandolfini.
