Did TNT change the opening theme to Charmed?! Did the license expire?!

Inquiring producer-witches must know.

I initially wanted to do a thing where he freaked out in a trailer, but @samriegel.bsky.social suggested we take the money we budgeted for it and put it towards break-safe props and I was like “SAY NO MORE, YOU’RE WEARING THIS JEAN HARLOW ROBE.” ❤️ #CriticalRoleSpoilers

I would give him a lion cut at least once a year at the start of summer. He was a Norwegian so he had a thick thick coat with a water resistant undercoat. Helped make him feel cooler and sexier in the LA summers (and reduced tumbleweeds of floof around the house).

He was as sweet as he was spicy. He hated me for the first 3 years and then, overnight, he couldn’t leave me alone.

Thank you for loving me, for protecting me, for teaching me how to hold space for myself, and for the countless nights you tucked me in, keeping my bad dreams at bay.

This morning I lost my deamon. My familiar. My dream guardian. My grumpy lil Palm Springs queen. My Mumu.

He was 18 years old. For the last 16 years he’s been a constant fluffy presence around me. Now I’m gonna have to get used to not hearing his constant little squawks and chirps.

They also can’t betray beliefs because they have none. They have no moral compass other than the need to follow power.

The following is a statement from the WGA on ABC’s decision to pull ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’

WGA Statement on ABC's Decision to Pull ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’
The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice.
As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree.
Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich.
Silencing us impoverishes the whole world.
The WGA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

“We can do this the easy way or the hard way,” Carr warned. “These companies can find ways to change conduct and take actions on Kimmel, or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

GOOD GODS do I know. They absolutely crushed this. You can see the care and love in every single detail.

It's always incredibly surreal to oogle and fuss over top secret character art for weeks and weeks and then suddenly BAM they're in YouTube thumbnails and have fan art.

@solelle.bsky.social ATE. THIS. UP.
