Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Hanukkah on the Rocks is as sweet as a jelly donut!
December 13th, 2024 under Daren Kagasoff, Hallmark. [ Comments: none ]

Hallmark has a tradition of showing a Hanukkah movie every year. And tonight at 8p this movie is Hanukkah on the Rocks.

Tory (Stacey Farber) is a workaholic lawyer who has no time to meet a man. However, she always has time for her bubbe (Marina Stephenson Kerr), who wants her granddaughter to get married. But Tory doesn’t have time for that.

Until she does, that is because she gets laid off right before Hanukkah, and she doesn’t want to tell her parents and her bubbe. So she is pretending to work from home and take personal days. So when her bubbe asks her to find rare Hanukkah candles, she accepts the mission.

Jay (Daren Kagasoff) is in Chicago to visit his grandfather (Marc Summers), and he is trying to convince him to move down to Florida to be with him and his parents. However, he loves living where he lives.

His grandfather also wants the same candles as Tory’s bubbe, so now they are both looking for them. And luckily, there is one store that has them. Unfortunately, they only have one box. Now, they both have to fight over it.

Eventually, Tory lets Jay have the box. But then she has buyer’s remorse, so she follows him to a bar where his grandfather always goes to. Tory and him immediately get along, but the same cannot be said for Jay and her.

But they will have more time to get to know each other when she starts working as a bartender there. Together, they all work to turn Rocky’s into Hanukkah on the Rocks.

Will Jay and Tory’s relationship go from the rocks to something more? You will have to tune in for an endearing to find out.

I loved this movie, but there were two problems. One, Hallmark aired it on Shabbos. The second is if Jewish men looked like Kagasoff, more Jewish women would marry Jewish men.

Could this be the end of Sesame Street
December 13th, 2024 under Sesame Street/Muppets. [ Comments: none ]

Oscar the Grouch has nothing on Warner Bros Discovery head dick David Zaslav. That is because the latter cancelled his deal with Sesame Street. Thus leaving the beloved children’s show without a home.

“It has been a wonderful, creative experience working with everyone at Sesame Street on the iconic children’s series and we are thrilled to be able to keep some of the library series on Max in the U.S.,” a spokesperson for Max tells The Hollywood Reporter. “As we’ve launched Max though and based on consumer usage and feedback, we’ve had to prioritize our focus on stories for adults and families, and so new episodes from Sesame Street, at this time, are not as core to our strategy.”

So now Sesame Workshop is looking for a new place to air the series. Hopefully, they will not have to wait too long. And they shouldn’t be on the market for too long because they are a hot commodity for parents who want their children to watch something educational, fun, and positive.

And on a positive note, the show will be getting rid of the magazine style they changed to for Max.

“It’s going to give us an opportunity to dive further into the narrative,” Kay Wilson Stallings, executive vp and chief creative development and production officer for Sesame Workshop, told THR at the time, calling the changes a “reimagining” of the show, and adding that the longer segments will allow for more “dynamic” and “sophisticated” stories.

I hope that the streamers realize what a gift it will be to save this show that has been educating kids since 1969.

Mariah Carey has been on the road with her Christmas Time tour since November 6th. Just when she could see the lights on her Christmas tree, she came down with the flu.

Therefore, she had to cancel her in Pittsburgh on the 11th, leaving her with just three more dates to do.

However, today, she gave an update on this weekend’s concerts, “Newark and Belmont – I wish I had better news but unfortunately I’m still sick and have to cancel the shows tonight and on Sunday. I’m really devastated about it and appreciate your support. Love, MC ”

This just leaves her with Brooklyn on Tuesday. Hopefully, she will be better by then for her fans.

Malcolm in the Middle is coming back!
December 13th, 2024 under Bryan Cranston, Frankie Muniz. [ Comments: none ]

It is not even Christmas, but Malcolm in the Middle fans got a tremendous gift! Disney+ is resurrecting the series for four episodes with Frankie Muniz, Bryan Cranston, and Jane Kaczmarek.

Malcolm (Muniz) and his daughter are drawn into the family’s chaos when Hal (Cranston) and Lois (Kaczmarek) demand his presence for their 40th wedding anniversary party.

“‘Malcolm in the Middle’ is a landmark sitcom that captured the essence of family life with humor, heart, and relatability,” said Ayo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television. “Its hilarious and heartfelt portrayal of a lovably chaotic family resonated with audiences of all ages, and we’re so excited to welcome the original cast back to bring that magic to life again. With Linwood Boomer and the creative team at the helm, these new episodes will have all the laughs, pranks, and mayhem fans loved — along with a few surprises that remind us why this show is so timeless.”

However, no timeline was given as to when it will air. And more importantly, we don’t know if Malcolm’s brothers, Justin Berfield, Erik Per Sullivan, and Christopher Masterson, will appear in the sequel.

Malcolm in the Middle originally aired on Fox from 2000-2006.
