The long, drawn out week that is the NFL schedule release
posty replied to cmh6476's topic in The Geek Club
Another silly event IMO…. Don’t teams and fans already know their opponents for the upcoming year and location? All they don’t know is DOW and when… Honestly what is so great about watching a schedule show? -
I tried five episodes and just could not get into it... Melissa Rauch just doesn't have the "umph" to be the lead IMO...

https://tvline.com/2020/12/16/night-court-reboot-john-larroquette-returning-nbc/ NBC is reopening the doors of Night Court. Original star John Larroquette is stepping back into the role of Reinhold Daniel Fielding Elmore for a sequel series to the classic sitcom, our sister site Deadline reports. This updated take on Night Court will center around an “unapologetic, optimistic” judge named Abby Stone (yet to be cast), who happens to be the daughter of Harry Stone (played by the late Harry Anderson), who presided over the original series. Following in her father’s footsteps, Abby will take the night shift, presiding over a Manhattan arraignment court where you never know what to expect. Melissa Rauch (The Big Bang Theory) will executive-produce the multi-cam project for Warner Bros. TV, alongside writer Dan Rubin (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt). Larroquette is also set to produce. Larroquette took home four Primetime Emmy Awards for his work on the original Night Court, winning Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series in 1985, 1986, 1987 and 1988. Original cast member Anderson died in 2018, while scene stealer Selma Diamond, who played sarcastic Bailiff Selma Hacker, passed away in 1985, early into the series’ run.

Canceled after three seasons… https://tvline.com/news/night-court-cancelled-nbc-revival-john-larroquette-1235436372/ Night Court is no longer in session: NBChas cancelled the courtroom comedy revival after three seasons, TVLine has confirmed, though it is possible that Warner Bros. Television could shop the sitcom around to another network or streamer. The continuation of the 1984-92 courtroom comedy starred Melissa Rauch (The Big Bang Theory) as Judge Abby Stone, who presided over the same New York City night court as her late father Harry Stone (played on the original series by Harry Anderson, who died in 2018). John Larroquette reprised his role as attorney Dan Fielding, who served as the night court’s public defender. The supporting cast included Lacretta as bailiff Gurgs, Nyambi Nyambi as court clerk Wyatt and sitcom vet Wendie Malick, who joined the cast full-time in Season 3 as new prosecutor Julianne. Marsha Warfield, who played Roz on the original Night Court, dropped by occasionally to reprise her role as well. Debuting in January 2023, Night Courtreturned for Season 3 in November, wrapping up its run in May. Season 3 leaned heavily into Rauch’s Big Bangconnections, with Mayim Bialik guest-starring as herself in a January episode and Simon Helberg popping up in the Season 3 finale. Ratings were down, though, with total viewership slipping 36% versus last season to an average of 1.95 million per episode. Among all NBC scripted shows, it only outdrew freshmen Suits LA and Grosse Pointe Garden Society.

From the article, this truth is stated… “Scientists simply don’t know enough yet to project what will happen.” -

I do not have a passport or will be getting a real ID… I have no desire to travel out of the country or by airplane…. Though one needs real ID to get into Arlington Cemetery, which is kind of weird IMO, but not my decision…

https://www.forbes.com/sites/marcberman1/2025/05/02/ruth-buzzi-dies-the-rowan--martin-laugh-in-star-was-88/ Actress and comedian Ruth Buzzi, who rose to fame in the 1968 to 1973 NBC variety/sketch comedy Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In, died on May 1. She was 88. “Ruthie left us while peacefully sleeping yesterday evening at home. She’d been in hospice care, disabled from a stroke in 2022 following a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s ten years earlier,” read a message from her family on Facebook. Born July 24, 1936 in Westerly, Rhode Island, Ruth Buzzi’s first job in show business was at age 19, traveling with singer Rudy Vallee in a live musical and comedy act during her summer break from college. She moved to New York City after graduation and was hired for a lead role in an off-Broadway musical revue, the first of 19 in which she performed around the East Coast. Buzzi debuted on television in variety series The Garry Moore Show in 1964, and she was a member of the ensemble on the The Entertainers in 1965. Following a guest spot on sitcom The Monkees in 1967, she landed the recurring role of Margie “Pete” Peterson on the Marlo Thomas comedy That Girl. Other guest appearances followed, including Night Gallery, Here’s Lucy and Love, American Style until her big break came with Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-in. “We laughed, and laughed, and laughed. It never even felt like I was going to work. It was pure spontaneous fun,” said Buzzi at a session on Laugh-In at the Television Critics Winter Press Tour in 2011. Buzzi was one of only four cast members who were regulars on the breakout hit for its entire six season run. Among her recurring characters on Laugh-In were spinster Gladys Ormphby; Busy-Buzzi, a gossip columnist; Doris Swizzler, a cocktail-lounge patron who always got smashed with husband Leonard ( Martin); one of the Burbank Airlines Stewardesses; and Flicker Farkle. Following Laugh-In, Buzzi appeared opposite Jim Nabors in the Saturday morning comedy The Lost Saucer from Sid and Marty Krofft from 1975 to 1976. In 1979, she co-starred on the Canadian children’s comedy show Whatever Turns You On. And she was active both as a guest star and a voice actor in dozens of TV series (including CHiPs, Alice, Days of Our Lives, Trapper John, M.D., The Carol Burnett Show, Alvin and the Chipmunks, The Berenstain Bears and The Pink Panther).

In 1993, Buzzi joined the cast of Sesame Street as shopkeeper, Ruthie, as part of the Around the Corner set expansion. She also voiced Suzie Kabloozie and her pet cat, Feff in animated inserts that were shown on the show from 1994 to 2008. Buzzi also appeared in numerous TV commercials, including Clorox 2, Clairol and Ban roll-on deodorant, and she voiced Granny Goodwitch for Sugar Crisp cereal. She had a nightclub act across the United States, including at The Sahara and MGM Grand hotels in Las Vegas. She appeared eight times on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. And her film resume included Chu Chu and the Philly Flash, Freaky Friday, The North Avenue Irregulars and The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again. Memorial arrangements will be made by Lacy Funeral Home on Stephenville, Texas. with the details to be announced. The family requests donating to Alzheimer’s research (www.alz.org) in lieu of flowers.

https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/01/entertainment/jill-sobule-death Jill Sobule, singer of 1995 hit tracks “I Kissed a Girl” and “Supermodel,” has died at the age of 66. Sobule died early Thursday morning in a house fire, according to a statement from her publicity firm. The Denver-born singer’s song “I Kissed a Girl,” off of her 1995 self-titled album, became the first openly LGBTQ-themed song to chart on the Billboard Top 20. She is perhaps best known for her single “Supermodel,” also off her self-titled album, which was her second. “Supermodel” was prominently featured in the popular 1995 movie “Clueless,” helping Sobule break through to the mainstream. John Porter, Jill’s manager, said in a statement that Sobule was “a force of nature and human rights advocate whose music is woven into our culture” and that he hopes her “music, memory, & legacy continue to live on and inspire others.” Sobule’s musical career spanned over three decades, starting in the 1990s with her debut album “Things Here are Different,” which was produced by rock legend and record producer Todd Rundgren. The record was known for its track “Too Cool to Fall in Love.” Her musical oeuvre includes 12 albums that take on issues including the death penalty, disordered eating and LGBTQ+ issues, among other topics. She performed with Neil Young, Cyndi Lauper and Tom Morello, among many others. Sobule released her seventh studio album “California Years” in 2009 and then went on an extended break from releasing music. In 2018, she released what is now her final album, “Nostalgia Kills.” “I was my own procrastinatrix, is what I call it,” she told Billboard in a 2018 interview about her long break between albums. “I started loving music again — loving listening, loving writing and the original spirit of why I did this in the first place, I suppose.” Sobule added that she loved to perform, “and I love telling the stories of the songs.” According to her website, Sobule was set to perform this weekend in Colorado, with further dates planned throughout the US into the summer and fall. Her PR firm’s statement said there will be a formal memorial celebrating the singer’s life and legacy later this year. Sobule is survived by her brother and sister-in-law, her nephews, cousins and friends.
