Tracy Letts offered to do anything, even if it meant bringing coneys to the set, to be a part of “The Lowdown.” He said this about “Reservation Dogs:” “Why did I have to wait until I’m nearly 60 years old to see a show about these kids that I grew up next to?” tulsaworld.com/life-enterta...

RIP, Loni Anderson, who was great as the highest-paid employee at radio station WKRP. I read her book. She didn’t want the part if she was going to have to play a stereotypical goofy blond.

Cool coincidence: “The Outsiders” was released March 25, 1983. That means the movie shares a March 25?birthday with king soc Paul (John C. Meier) from the rumble scene. Happy birthday John.
