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.

Did anyone eat potato chips made in an Easy Bake Oven and live long enough to provide a review?

It’s not a crime for Misty Rowe to impersonate Marilyn Monroe, but she was framed today.

I was today years old when I learned this public defender actress from “Night Court” was the person who sang with Meat Loaf on the song “Paradise By the Dashboard Light.”

When not angering his bosses by looking up license plates for Jim Rockford, Dennis Becker stays busy as a go-to guy on “Match Game.”

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.

On “Match Game,” it feels like a cheat code to be able to call upon Exidor from “Mork and Mindy.”

Radar O’Reilly had access to a time machine. Korean War was over in 1953. He’s been reading Avengers 60, published in 1968.

The Really Rottens were such legit, hard core bad guys that the pig work an eye patch.
