The List for Monday, November 28th 2022

Welcome to The List,

“Rolling Stone” ranked the 100 best TV theme songs of all time.  “The Jefferson’s” is at #1, followed by a tie between “The Brady Bunch” and “Gilligan’s Island”. I’m partial to Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.

If you want to know where movie producers are going next for ideas…well, Children’s books.. NOW are the new horror stories…as we’re awaiting the release of “Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey”.  Well, some of us are anyway…But there’s even MORE to look forward to after that.  The people behind that one are also working on “Bambi: The Reckoning”.  You pretty much know where this one’s going:  Bambi’s mother is killed, and he becomes a “vicious killing machine that lurks in the wilderness.” Three Blind Mice”“Rise of the Loch Ness”“Mary Had a Little Lamb”“Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare”“Jurassic Theme Park”, and, perhaps most importantly . . . “Spiders on a Plane”.

(If Samuel L. Jackson doesn’t star in this one, WE RIOT.)

Yesterday, Shania Twain released a Deluxe Edition of her 1997 smash album “Come On Over”.  There are three bonus tracks, and each one is a live duet with either Elton John, Chris Martin, or Nick Jonas.

——

Amy Grant returned to the stage for the first time since her biking accident in July.  She kicked off her Christmas tour on Saturday in Memphis.  She also thanked everyone for their “many prayers” over the last few months as her healing continues.

Irene Cara, the actress and pop star who won an Oscar and a Grammy for the hit “Flashdance… What a Feeling” from the movie ‘Flashdance’ and created her own memorable screen moments with films such as ‘Sparkle’ and ‘Fame’ has died.  The cause has not been determined yet.  Irene Cara was 63.

The List for Thursday, December 26th 2024

Welcome to The List,

Did you catch Beyonce’s performance during half-time on Wednesday’s game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Houston Texans? She performed a medley of songs off her album, “Cowboy Carter,” released earlier this year. Post Malone and Shaboozey, who are featured on “Cowboy Carter,” made special appearances during the Christmas Day performance.

Carly Pearce spent some time on tour with Tim McGraw earlier this year, and although she’s an avid runner and big into other fitness regimens like Orange Theory and spinning, one workout she has no plans to incorporate into her routine is Tim’s intense CrossFit training. “Yeah, I’m not gonna be a part of Tim McGraw’s workouts because quite frankly, I don’t think I could keep up. I did pull the tire up and I got it up, but he said that he will flip the tire the length of like a football field, y’all. And I’m just not going to do that. I will stick to running. If Tim McGraw wants to do a running challenge, let’s go.”

Some people may not know that one of Justin Moore’s favorite hobbies is cooking. He loves to try new recipes and often watches the Food Network for inspiration. We wondered if Justin has ever considered putting all those family recipes and his other favorites into a cookbook. “I would certainly be up for it. I’ve not ever thought about it, but I think it would be somethin’ that would be fun to do.”

-----

The 42nd president is currency hospitalized after coming down with a fever that required medical attention. NBC News reports Bill Clinton is in a Washington, D.C. hospital on his own accord. An aide told the media outlet that Clinton,  who is 78, “Is in good spirits and grateful for the care he is receiving.  “The former president will be fine. “He developed a fever and wanted to be checked out. He is awake and alert.”
