[TV orNotTV] (Used to be on TV) Mark Pender sighting

2022-10-21 Thread 'David Bruggeman' via TVorNotTV
I was watching a livestream concert of They Might Be Giants, and noticed former 
Basic Cable Band trumpeter Mark Pender was part of the horn section.  He had a 
hell of a solo to end that night's version of "Instanbul (not Constantinople)"

 I was about halfway through this when I realized I don't care enough about 
Corden to pay attention to whether he's canceled or not. I found him irritating 
when I first saw him in "The History Boys" (which was a play and production I 
hated) and my opinion of him has only lessened in the intervening years.

 McNally announced the ban on Instagram, then posted that Corden called him to 
apologize and he was rescinding the ban. None of this should have been made 
public as it was a dispute between restaurant management and a customer. 
Reading the articles doesn’t give me an impression of Corden as much as it does 
McNally and it’s not a good one.
Restaurants make errors all the time and customers generally have the social 
tools to resolve the problem without blowing up. I have heard of the 86 list, 
usually in a neighborhood bar. The people on that list drink too much and 
become abusive to the staff or other patrons. And that could have been Corden’s 
problem: he was drunk and couldn’t resolve the problem calmly.

A regular Lansbury costar, Ron Masak (the sheriff), passed Thursday... my 
first memory of him was "Love Thy Neighbor," a 70s summer ABC comedy... I'd 
forgotten he was the Grouchoesque voice of the Vlasic pickles stork... 86.

She figured the rightie channel would accept the same BS she'd just 
unloaded a month earlier at OAN... not so much.

Re: [TV orNotTV] Spacey's first trial begins

2022-10-21 Thread PGage
“Not Liable”. I hadn’t realized a then 19 yo John Barrowman had been
present, and would testify in support of Stacey’s version of events
(basically that it was Barrowman, not the minor Rapp, that Spacey was
trying to seduce.




“A federal jury in Manhattan found Kevin Spacey not liable for battery on
Thursday after the actor Anthony Rapp filed a lawsuit accusing Mr. Spacey
of climbing on top of him and making a sexual advance in 1986, when Mr.
Rapp was 14….


The jury determined that there was not enough evidence to prove that Mr.
Spacey had touched one of Mr. Rapp’s “sexual or intimate” parts, meaning
the claim could not be revived under the law. Mr. Rapp testified that when
Mr. Spacey picked him up, one of his hands “grazed” his buttocks.”
