Welcome to The List,
If you ever find yourself in Hollywood…maybe pick up an autograph if your lucky? Well, there are a few celebrities that simply refuse to give them up!! Star Treks Captain Kirk William Shatner only does them at conventions, Paul McCarney says he’d rather have a conversation with a fan and Steve Martin we’re not sure what the policy is NOW but back in the 80’s he used to hand out pre-signed cards that said, “This certifies that you have had a personal encounter with me, and you found me warm, polite, intelligent, and funny.”

The debut episode of Netflix’s new horror series “The Midnight Club” was one for the record books. Literally. It set the Guinness World Record for the most JUMP SCARES in a premiere episode. There were 21. Which is interesting, because the show’s co-creator Mike Flanagan HATES jump scares. He says, “I thought, ‘We’re going to do all of them at once, and then if we do it right, a jump scare will be rendered meaningless for the rest of the series.’ but that didn’t happen. They were like, ‘Great! More [scares]!'”
