Is the 1992 ‘Guys and Dolls’ revival the greatest cast recording of all time? I have decided, yes. It is.

Is asking someone to leave the beverages at home for an interview as fussy as reminding a lady to wear pantyhose or a gentleman to ask before lighting a cigarette? We assembled a team of Post staffers across the newsroom — and commenters — to find out: https://wapo.st/4dwx0LS

Okay, here’s mine, off the top of my head, I’m sure I forgot a big one…

Hey everyone, Covid is still a thing even if most people don’t test for it anymore, ask me how I know.

Is there a summer COVID-19 surge this year? Yep, it's ramping up again

Just like all previous summers since the pandemic began, COVID-19 cases are ticking up again, even while other health threats make more headlines.

Really enjoyed talking with my dear friends Wilmer Valderrama and Freddy Rodriguez on their Dos Amigos Podcast. Lovely conversation. This is the link to the video version, but you can also find it in regular 'ol podcast form! www.iheart.com/podcast/1119...

Writer Blusky: I find I'm taking more notes longhand (!) these days. What is the BEST PEN? (low to upper-mid budget, mind you)

In celebration of #YorkshireDay, please enjoy this Sean Bean bastard collection. Sound up, bastards.

Many outlets are reporting that Nolan's (excellent) new movie is the first full-on big-screen adaptation of THE ODYSSEY... ... but this is not so. There's also the quite-good ULYSSES (1954) starring Kirk Douglas and Anthony Quinn! Worth a look.

The 70mm presentation of the THE ODYSSEY at the historic Directors Village in Westwood (now operated by the great @amcinematheque.bsky.social) is truly spectacular.

On the language of Homeric Greek, and the language of a certain forthcoming film: here are a few simple observations.

The constant misuse of the apostrophe by grown-ass people will be the death of me.

I see lots of movies I don't love yet somehow I can avoid writing multiple articles crowing about how it's a failure.

Favorite that I wrote: ‘Kissed By Fire’ (305) Favorite that I didn’t write: ‘The Children’ (410)

Alas, my version of 'Zorro' is longer happening at Disney. They just didn't see eye-to-eye with what we wanted to do with it. Wilmer and I hope to find another home for it someday. Thankfully, I have another show picking up speed (hence my imminent social media break). But, yeah, it's a bummer.

I'm leaving and/or at least taking an extended break from all social media next week. So, in the meantime... a farewell AMA! If I can answer, I will. Just don't be a dick, if you are, you're blocked.

Cheers. Taxi. Frasier. Will & Grace. The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The Bob Newhart Show. Directed over 50 pilot episodes. He was THE guy to get if you were doing multi-cam.

With TOY STORY 5 coming out, once again, we're being deluged with "_____ is the best 'Toy Story' takes. An absurd exercise. All four are classics, the gold standard of family entertainment, each one rich in humor, artistry, and depth of feeling. That said, the best one is TOY STORY 2. Duh.

Your annual reminder that the Tonys are spelled just like that: the Tonys. No apostrophe. Just the Tonys. (The Tonys won by Tony Kushner are Tony's Tonys. The Tonys won by Tony Kushner and Tony Shalhoub are Tonys' Tonys.)

Aw, man... this is too bad. A very fine actor -- I'll always remember him as the dude from those soapy Tasters Choice commercials in the early 90s. Rest easy.
