Tim Allen could be headed back to network TV, and, if that happens, he might have "Roseanne" to thank. Tim's "Last Man Standing" was canceled last year, much to the dismay of its fans. Many wondered aloud if the cancelation was due to Tim's well-documented real life conservative views, and his conservative character on the show. Based on the massive ratings that "Roseanne" got on its debut, totaling 18.2 million viewers, clearly there is a huge group of people ready to embrace a conservative comedy show. Roseanne's character is proud supporter of Donald Trump and conservative values, just as she is in real life.

Pretty much what every Craig fan sees when looking at the anointed one! No face just pecks!

An even bigger twist than BROfeld?! What could it be?! Ernst is actually his biological brother?! Dr. No is his cousin?! Goldfinger his uncle?! Let's stop "twist"ing Bond into pretzels and get on with making a decent action/adventure thriller!

Maybe at the end Bond will turn out to be a former junkie who lost his mind and is actually inside a mental institution where all his "missions" are paranoid delusions.* Because that idea's never been used anywhere before but it's totally Flemming's Bond and the. Best. Bond. Eva. :wink:

Darn, we've gotta stop giving them ideas!


*Oh and if that's not enough, his gender, race and age** could all turn out to be different to what was shown up to that point as well. It was all part of the delusions. Pure classic Bond, amirite?

**I was going to write "sexual orientation" as well, but they've already made Craig's Bond's sexuality so ambiguous that it would be difficult for them to redefine it in any meaningful way. Well, let's not go there!

Huh, so is Harris calling it his "final" movie now? Did this come from EON? We can only hope! Maybe they're just trying to manage expectations and will still try to drag him back again with the big bucks.

That's the twist Acid old boy! At film's end Craig will announce his perpetual return to Bond, signing on for life making nothing but weak, pseudo action films full of pop psych B.S. and strange family issues for the next 40 years, until finally his last film "The Spy Whose Fallen and Can't Get Up" premieres in 2068!

Yuck, so sort of the Bond version of Highlander meets Groundhog Day (with repeating day penned by P+W) except perhaps with the accelerated aging seen in the Star Trek episode the Deadly Years, so here's Craig's Bond in 2068:

About Craig's body, I don't even find that attractive, it's obvious that he was taking steroids to get muscles like that in such a short time. couple that with him being completely hairless(I don't even see any body hair on his legs) and you get that "trying too hard in the gym" type that I don't like.

Aha you beat me to it BJ! :wink: I just came here to report that a spokesperson close to EON said that following some disappointing reviews of Spectre, Sir Sean Connery has been enticed back to the iconic role one last time. :clap: I wonder if Sean's bit will be a flashback or flashforward of Bond's life alongside Aiden's portrayal of the present day. :wink:

Happy Easter, Passover and April fools! Great news about Sean getting one more crack at the whip! ;) Exciting that Pierce and Timothy will be brought on as producers, maybe they will take up the cameo appearances MGW used to be famous for. :wink:

Finally watched the new Poirot movie, I enjoy Kenneth Branagh's performance in many other shows and movies however in Murder On the Orient Express he is a miserable excuse for Hercule Poirot. He misses so much of what make Hercule, Hercule. Set and quality of the performances are good, I suppose it is not a bad introduction to the world of Agatha Christie for people unfamiliar with her work. However to me Kenneth's performance completely ignores the unique character of Hercule, the neat freak OCD germaphobe who was Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot. I am glad Murder on the Orient Express did well enough to merit a sequel, it was much better than most of the new movies I have seen.

Steven Bochco, a producer whose boundary-pushing series such as “Hill Street Blues” and “NYPD Blue” helped define the modern TV drama, has died, according to TMZ. He was 74. Bochco had been battling a rare form of leukemia for several years. He had a transplant in late 2014 that was credited with prolonging his life. Details of his death were unclear Sunday.
