The enduring popularity of “The Office” (US version) has helped cement it as one of the most beloved sitcoms. With many legendary pieces of pop culture, the merchandising opportunities have not been lost on NBC/Universal or fans. And if there’s at least one other thing that die-hard fans enjoy, it’s a good LEGO set. Thanks to the LEGO Ideas website, these two worlds collided, and the end result is coming soon! The LEGO Ideas set based on “The Office” received enough support to be officially commissioned for development. Cut to nine months later, and we now know exactly what we’ll…

From thefts to lost pieces being discovered, to people throwing pastries at famous works- there’s never a dull moment in the world of art. Well, there probably are quite a few dull moments, just fewer than you’d expect. Look no further than Dutch master Vincent van Gogh. His work still resonates enough today to land him a firm place in the canon of Doctor Who! Almost 140 years after it’s creation, one of van Gogh’s painting had something quite unexpected behind it, in a very literal sense. van Gogh’s “Head of a Peasant Woman” was completed in 1885. In preparation…
As the new owner of Mint Mobile and a European football club, Ryan Reynolds is a busy man. He’s Deadpool, Detective Pikachu, a Free Guy, and that’s on top of being a dad. Does this guy even have a clue what’s going on? The “Clue” we’re referring to of course is the long-rumored remake of the cult classic. The original 1985 film starred an ensemble cast of comedic acting heavyweights. Where does the project stand now? Well, there’s some good bad news on that one. Let’s start with the good news first. A script is done! Screenwriters Rhett Reese and…
Few celebrities know as much about trying to bounce back from their own demons quite like Robert Downey Jr.. The rise, fall, and rise again of the “Iron Man” star is so well-known, it’s partly what made his portrayal of Tony Stark so perfect. RDJr’s past behavior, drug addictions, and run-ins with the law were a reliable source of celebrity news fodder throughout the 90s and early 2000s, costing him acting jobs and landing him behind bars. [If you haven’t seen David Letterman’s “My Next Guest” episode with RDJr, it’s on Netflix, and we HIGHLY suggest it.] Whether it was…
If you’re going to be doing something in public or for the public, learn to read the room. Take note of the crowd’s attitude, and ensure they’re staying with you. For example, making jokes during a eulogy might be a bad idea, unless the family and supporters wanted to remember a loved one with laughter.. One Florida amusement park seems to not understand this philosophy, because they’ve adding a target shooting game involving actual places in Orlando. ICON Park near Orlando, Florida has already been in the news this year for tragic reasons. 14-year old Tyre Sampson died after falling…
Barney may be a dinosaur from our imaginations, but this live-action movie is very much real. Yes, in case you forgot, that purple dinosaur that delighted children and significantly irritated parents from the late 80s to 2010 was slated for a live-action movie a few years ago. Even though talk about it hasn’t been in the headlines since then, he hasn’t gone away. He still loves you, and Oscar winner Daniel Kaluuya is still hard at work at making the movie happen. Though he’s been acting since far before 2017, that was the year he was featured as Chris in…
Sometimes, criminal cases involving celebrities take turns a screenwriter could not or would not dare to come up with. Such is the ongoing case with singer Ricky Martin, and a restraining order that was filed against him earlier this month. Please note before you read any further, this story does involve allegations of both domestic abuse and sexual acts between family members. So if this is too much (we do not blame you if it is), you may want to stop reading now. A restraining order was filed against Ricky Martin on July 2nd, 2022 in Puerto Rico. According to…
There have been many classic rivalries in the history of film and television. Freddy vs Jason, Predator vs Alien, “Designing Women” vs “The Golden Girls;” you get the idea. Legendary director Joe Dante may have just started his own blood feud of cuteness between a galaxy far, far away and an iconic 80s film. Is it possible Baby Yoda (real name redacted) is a blatant rip-off of everyone’s favorite “Gremlins” star Gizmo? One of the major selling points for “The Mandalorian” was the reveal in the first episode of Baby Yoda. While we’d later come to find out his real…
Several shows could compete for the title of the best kept secret on television, but one of the chief contenders is certainly “Documentary Now!.” Airing on IFC, this mockumentary series features a who’s who of late 2000’s and 2010’s SNL talent. Created by Seth Meyers, Fred Armisen, Bill Hader, and “Saturday Night Live” director Rhys Thomas it’s also executively produced by them along with SNL head, Lorne Michaels. Meyers, Armisen, and Hader are also responsible for writing much of the series along with frequent collaborator, John Mulaney. The series has frequently relied on guest star talent in order to give…
The sea lion, mother nature’s way of telling you that it’s perfectly natural to be fat, happy, and roll around in the sand all day. These generally passive creatures can weigh around 600 pounds, are fairly intelligent, and in general are pretty adorable. But, they ARE 600 pounds. And have teeth. So as adorable as they might be, maybe it’s not a good idea to get one angry. How dangerous could an angry sea lion be? Well a bunch of beach goers at La Jolla Cove didn’t wait to find out. A witness at the scene noticed a woman approaching…
