Denzel is not your average furry

Random local furry: "I heard you have a daddy kink."

Denny: "It's not wha-"

Same Random: "Why don't you get a real job? I don't approve of your gir-"

Denny: [grabs the brat by the throat] "WHAT THE F# MADE YOU THINK I WAS THE KID IN THIS SCENARIO! You want a daddy kink then fine. Tuck in your shirt, tie your laces, scrub the floors, clean that stove top! ... DID YOU JUST F#ING WET YOURSELF?! I'm gonna teach you how to be a real man, boy."

so long story short Denny has a new lovestruck stalker in his town.

Okay so my step dad just [] somebody who's pretty important.

Yes, he's still alive.

Also who's Ryan Garcia? And how did he get this information?

'Gladiator 2' Producers on Cut Scenes, Timeliness and Trilogy Hopes News Buzz

[This story contains spoilers from Gladiator II.] In March 2001, Gladiator producer Douglas Wick accepted the Oscar for best picture from Michael Douglas, thus setting the highest possible bar for the, at that point, already discussed sequel to Ridley Scott’s historical epic. At the end of his speech, Wick paid tribute to his family by lovingly saying that “all roads lead to” them, and the…

[hellostarrynightblr]

highlights of June-December

Favourite movies: The Farmer's Daughter (1947), Oppenheimer (2023), The Bourne trilogy (2002-2007), Gojira -1.0 (2023).

Decent movies I liked / appreciated but not loved: Highlander (1986), From the Terrace (1960), Mary Poppins (1964), Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023), If I Were King (1938), The Equalizer 3 (2023), No Way Out (1950), Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993).

wtf movie/ending: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023) just because they ended it like an episode of a TV show rather than a part one of a movie. I knew it was part one and even I was sitting at the cinema confused once the credits rolled. Also, in the best way, They Won't Believe Me (1947). I was not expecting the film to end like that at all. AT ALL. Also, Caught (1949) has the most unsatisfying tonal shift in the end I probably have ever see. Up until that last few minutes, it was solid, dark, edgy even. Just the way I like my noirs to be. And then the resolution and it is just…. huh?

Best scenes: the Spider Men chase scene in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023); Alfred leaving Mary for good in From the Terrace (1960); the finale in They Won't Believe Me (1947); father's final walk to work in Mary Poppins (1964); the bomb / 'You will remember this day' in Oppenheimer (2023); saying goodbye to the 'daughter' in Gojira -1.0 (2023); the garage confrontation in Caught (1949).

Favourite genres: action, adventure, drama.

Favourite directors: Christopher Nolan (Oppenheimer, 2023); Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, Justin K. Thompson (Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, 2023); Robert Stevenson (Mary Poppins, 1964); Paul Greengrass (The Bourne trilogy, 2002-2007); Joseph L. Mankiewicz (No Way Out, 1950); Takashi Yamazaki (Gojira -1.0, 2023); Mel Brooks (Robin Hood: Men in Tights, 1993); Sidney Lanfield (The Hound of the Baskervilles, 1939).

Favourite actors: Robert Cummings (The Lost Moment, 1947), Susan Hayward (The Lost Moment, 1947 and They Won't Believe Me, 1947); Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward (From the Terrace, 1960); Ethel Barrymore, Loretta Young, Joseph Cotten (The Farmer's Daughter, 1947); Robert Young (They Won't Believe Me, 1947); Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell (Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, 2023); Matt Damon (The Bourne trilogy, 2002-2007); Ronald Colman (If I Were King, 1938); Denzel Washington (The Equalizer 3, 2023); Sidney Poitier, Linda Darnell, Richard Widmark (No Way Out, 1950); Cary Elwes (Robin Hood: Men in Tights, 1993); Bob Hope (The Ghost Breakers, 1940); James Mason, Barbara Bel Geddes, Robert Ryan (Caught, 1949); Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe (Gojira -1.0, 2023); Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr. (Oppenheimer, 2023); Julie Andrews, Dick Van Dyke, David Tomlinson, Glynis Johns (Mary Poppins, 1964). (Dick Van Dyke is an international treasure, I absolutely love this sweet, sweet man!)

Least favourite performances: anyone in Angels Over Broadway (1940) is pretty forgettable, Douglas Fairbanks Jr. in particular. I did not like Nine 1/2 Weeks (1986), so it might be affecting my perception of Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger's performances as I know both of them are more than capable performers. George Sanders is pretty bland in The Strange Affair of Uncle Harry (1945). Vincent Cassel is bizzare in La belle et la bête (2014).

The most wasted cast: I don't think there is any particular cast that was wasted this time around. I didn't enjoy Angels Over Broadway (1940), so might be this one.

The best wasted premise: The Lost Moment (1947). It's not a bad film, but way too rushed. Had they taken more time, I think the film would have been much, much better.

Best premise: Highlander (1986); No Way Out (1950); Gojira -1.0 (2023).

Favourite cast: Oppenheimer (2023), hands down. Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Alden Ehrenreich, Scott Grimes, Jason Clarke, James D'Arcy, Kenneth Branagh, Tim DeKay, David Krumholtz, Florence Pugh, Matt Damon, Dane DeHaan, Josh Peck, Rami Malek, Casey Affleck, Gary Oldman. At one point I just started listing every actor I know who's popped up in this, it got crazy.

Favourite on-screen duos: Robert Cummings + Susan Hayward (The Lost Moment, 1947); Paul Newman + Joanne Woodward, Paul Newman + Ina Balin (From the Terrace, 1960); Loretta Young,+ Joseph Cotten, Ethel Barrymore with literally anyone (The Farmer's Daughter, 1947); Julie Andrews + Dick Van Dyke (Mary Poppins, 1964); Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell (Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, 2023); anyone in Oppenheimer (2023); James Mason, Barbara Bel Geddes (Caught, 1949); Bob Hope + Paulette Goddard (The Ghost Breakers, 1940).

Favourite on-screen relationships: my favourite is easily Larry Quinada and Leonora Eames from Caught (1949), but I have a few others. Alfred Eaton + Mary St. John (in a very toxic, unhealthy way) and Alfred Eaton + Natalie Benzinger (From the Terrace, 1960); Katrin Holstrom + Glenn Morley (The Farmer's Daughter, 1947); Bourne + Marie (The Bourne Identity, 2002 + The Bourne Ultimatum, 2004); Koichi Shikishima + Noriko Oishi (Gojira -1.0, 2023).

Favourite characters: Alfred Eaton, Mary St. John (From the Terrace, 1960); Mrs. Morley, Katrin Holstrom, Glenn Morley (The Farmer's Daughter, 1947); Jason Bourne (The Bourne trilogy, 2002-2007); Larry Ballentine (They Won't Believe Me, 1947); Mary Poppins, Bert (Mary Poppins, 1964); Ethan Hunt, Grace (Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, 2023); J. Robert Oppenheimer, Lewis Strauss (Oppenheimer, 2023); Jason Bourne (The Bourne trilogy, 2002-2007); François Villon (If I Were King, 1938); Robert McCall (The Equalizer 3, 2023); Edie Johnson, Dr. Dan Wharton, Dr. Luther Brooks (No Way Out, 1950); Koichi Shikishima, Noriko Oishi (Gojira -1.0, 2023), Robin Hood (Robin Hood: Men in Tights, 1993); Larry Quinada, Leonora Eames, Smith Ohlrig (Caught, 1949).

Favourite quote: Let no one laugh at our absurd design, but pray to God that he forgives us all. (If I Were King, 1938). I also love this exchange in From the Terrace: Mary St. John: You've touched me deeply. Alfred Eaton: But not in the right places.

Favourite fact discovered in 2023: James Mason asked to play the good guy in Caught (1949) because he wanted a break from playing bad buys in British films. Gojira -1.0 (2023) was made on a 15-million-dollar budget. Effective filmmaking if I ever saw one. Oppenheimer (2023), a 3-hour biopic, made around a billion dollars at the box office.

The most overrated film: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023). It was fine, the animation is great, but there are a few too many stupid and slow moments. Nine 1/2 Weeks (1986) is terrible. No Way Out (1987) is okay, but I prefer the original anyway. Almost everything Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) is good except for the actual plot.

The most disappointing film: I didn't hold out much hope for any of these, so I wasn't disappointed.

The biggest surprise: Gojira -1.0 (2023).

Best cinematography: Hoyte Van Hoytema (Oppenheimer, 2023). Also, J. Peverell Marley (The Hound if the Baskervilles, 1939).

Best set design: Oppenheimer (2023). Also. I loved La belle et la bête (2014).

Best costume design: Pierre-Yves Gayraud La belle et la bête (2014).

Best music: I don't remember any. My guess is Oppenheimer (2023), but I can't remember any music from it either.

Best production choice: casting Julie Andrews as Mary Poppins (Mary Poppins, 1964); black-and-white sections (Oppenheimer, 2023), focusing on the human drama and survivor's guilt (Gojira -1.0, 2023)

Worst production choice: (randomly) killing Ilsa (Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, 2023).

Film of the month(s): Oppenheimer (2023), Gojira -1.0 (2023).

Enjoy reading the most cursed post you've ever seen.

[kevinbriansatterwhite]

I don’t watch sports that much.  I kind of lost interest in it.  When it comes to music and film - even if you don’t like an artist - every now and then there’s a performance or a song that really picks you up.  Sports is not art.  What you see is what you get.  They’re human beings.  As an artist myself - I just think about - Indiana Jones - talking about - fortune and glory.  I think as a society - we focus too much on - fortune and fame.  Chasing fame is not an admirable quality - no matter how many songs we hear about it - or how many movies we watch - where it looks cool.  To me - a part of glory - is the honor bestowed upon another by the world - allowing someone to use their fame for good.  Sports is great because - you could possibly see someone’s great deeds - reflected in their game - live.  This literally makes it a dangerous game - unlike Liam Hemsworth, Michael Douglas, and Ice-T - who were portraying characters in movies with dangerous plots.  When someone is chasing fame - you don’t really see anything - it’s just a player playing a game.  I think sports has great potential.  I think someday men and women could compete together on the same teams - with a few adjustments to the rules and regulations.  I remember when I used to watch basketball players talk and I used to get nervous - like when watching a “black” person read the prompter at a fancy award show.  Things have gotten better - society is improving.  We have found time to care about things that don’t seem to matter - like speech and teach.  It’s not just about wasting money anymore.  I don’t recall exactly.  I vaguely remember seeing Kelsey Plum talking about the importance of managing money and making the money she deserves.  It’s something that people need to understand.  How to save money, how to get the money you deserve, and how to spend money.  I’ve heard of too many athletes going broke after making millions.  It’s not just athletes that need this information.  I think Kelsey Plum should be the face of the WNBA.  By that I mean - she should be in a leadership position - to help promote the league.  

Women have been through some serious stuff when it comes to beauty.  Dorothy Dandridge, Elizabeth Taylor, and Barbara Streisand.  I can’t imagine the stuff they went through as women.  Not just stretching the mold, but breaking it - so other people could fit into it.  I remember growing up - Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Jonathan Brandis, Cory Haim, Luke Perry, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Jaleel White - they were all the standard of beauty in the nineties.  I didn’t fit the description, but I was okay with it.  It didn’t offend me.  I don’t think it’s fair to look back and say it was wrong for society to put them up there like that.  Unfortunately, we lost Cory, Luke, and Jonathan.  We don’t hear much about Taylor Thomas anymore.  The world was starving for purity and innocence and it didn’t seem to pan out.  The “black” community was really into Denzel Washington.  I wonder if that’s why it went from - Brad Pitt to George Clooney, Ryan Renyolds, and Ryan Gosling.  Denzel, Ryan, Ryan, and George seem like a more heartfelt and wholesome choice than pure and innocent.  Brad Pitt may have let everyone down - when he didn’t seem to be what people expected.  The world got fed up with purity and innocence - because it just kept fading away.  Then it all felt wrong because it wasn’t diverse enough.  But, was there a bigger picture?  There are no racial slurs worse - to me - than the ones against Asian people.  Gook and chink - they sound more like a direct aim at someone’s features.  If you think about Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Tyson Beckford, Taylor Lautner, and Taylor Swift - they have features that I believe - everyone can relate to.  Their universal beauty provides healing and protection.  It also allows us to see ourselves as more beautiful - by practicing on someone else.  I think Kelsey Plum as the face of the WNBA will open humble doors - that we didn’t realized were closed.  It’s like - “white” culture back in the nineties was not just tripping.  They were up to something.  The popularity of BTS - may be proof that there’s something going on.  The world has to address the negative and hold ourselves accountable for our actions - before we plan the positive.  The best we can do in the meantime is prepare for something better.

Douglas Turner Ward May 5, 1930 - February 20, 2021) an actor, director, and playwright, was considered a legend in African American theatre. He co-founded the Negro Ensemble Company. NEC has spawned over 200 productions. It has been the incubator of opportunity for such talents as Denzel Washington, Phylicia Rashad, Samuel L. Jackson, Angela Bassett, Giancarlo Esposito, Laurence Fishburne, Esther Rolle, Cleavon Little, Frances Foster, Sherman Helmsley, David Alan Grier, and Lynn Whitfield. Playwrights such as Paul Carter Harrison, Charles Fuller, Judy Ann Mason, Joseph A. Walker, Philip Hayes Dean, J. E. Franklin, Endesha Mae Holland, and Aisah Rahman found the NEC to be a nurturing environment for the production of their plays.

He was born in Burnside, Louisiana to Roosevelt and Dorothy (Short) Ward. His early education was at Wilberforce University and the University of Michigan. He was a journalist. He began studying acting at the Actor’s Workshop, He debuted in The Iceman Cometh. He understudied Sidney Poitier in A Raisin in the Sun. He began writing plays. His first two efforts, Day of Absence and Happy Ending were very successful.

He discussed the lack of opportunity for Black actors and Black theatre. This led to an invitation from the New York Times to write an op-ed piece on the state of Black theatre.

The Ford Foundation read the article and invited him and his associates, actor Robert Hooks and theatre manager Gerald S. Krone, to meet. The Ford Foundation funded $434K to what became the NEC.

From its first production, Song of the Lusitanian Bogey, NEC became the envy of the theatrical world. Ford ceased funding the theatre. He continued to lead the company for many years but he relinquished the artistic directorship of NEC in the late 1990s.

He married Diana Powell (1966). They had two children. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

Today they are basically talking all things Gwyneth Paltrow.

Kevin said its the substitute day aka Gwyneth Paltrow’s Emmy award winning performance on her first episode Glee. They both said she looks so good.

Kevin said it was infuriating that when she showed up they were like she doesn’t really want to wear make -up. Jenna said they were like don’t really do her hair. She was like just straighten it from the half down and don’t touch the top and there she was looking younger then all of us. Kevin said it’s infuriating.

The episode aired on November 16, 2010.

The #1 song was What’s My Name? By Rihanna.

The #1 movie was Unstoppable staring Denzel Washington and Chris Pine.

Lea and Cory were on the cover of Teen Vogue. Jenna said they looked very angelic. Kevin said I mean beautiful like models. Jenna said the lighting.

Some of the cast when to the GQ Magazine Men of the Year event at the Chateau. Kevin said it looks like he had an accident with a hair straightener. Jenna said you looked like you stepped out of the emo 2000s. Kevin said it was bad. They were filming something at the mall where Kevin did Safety Dance and they had all of two seconds to get ready in their trailers. Jenna said that is when this whole thing started where if they had to go to an event they were so busy working they had hair and make-up come to set to get them ready and they would go straight from set. It was not the ideal. Kevin said it was no ideal and you saw what happened with my hair .This event is where Kevin met Dougie Booth. He said it was worth getting ready really quickly so he could befriend one Douglas Booth.

This episode was directed by Ryan Murphy. Jenn and Kevin both didn’t remember this but it makes sense because this episode is directed very well and its a very funny episode. Jenna said she couldn’t see anyone else directing Gwyneth in her first episode.

Special guest star is Gwyneth Paltrow herself as Holly Holiday.

There are a lot of teeny tiny costars in this episode. The child version of the Glee Club which was so cute. Kevin said he loved them. Jenna said that was the best. They both quoted the Mr. Schue you look a little green. Jenna said she remembers being back behind in village when they were doing this scene and everyone trying not to crack up laughing. All the parents of the little kids were there, of course obviously. Jenna said how cute were they. Kevin said they were all there watching obsessed. It was very surreal. Jenna said she has a photo of all of them with their minis that she can post later. They were all really cute and so good. Kevin said he doesn’t even want to look up how old they are now.

Jessalyn returns for this episode.

There aren’t that many songs in this episode. They listed the songs.

Gwyneth Paltrow won’t the Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series. Kevin said outstanding she was.

This episode Mr. Schue gets sick. There is something going around and it takes out the principal and the glee club director. Holly Holiday comes in to take over his Spanish class and at the work of Kurt, the Glee Club. She winds up winning everyone over. Sue is temporarily principal and gets crazy. She takes away the tots. Kevin said the whole episode made him hungry. Jenna said they looked really good.

Kevin said before they get into this they have to talk about Gwyneth for a hot second. He said he was so nervous and starstruck because this was the first time he had ever been around an Oscar winner. He wasn’t sure how he was going to be able to play it really cool. He said you know when you try to play it cool and you come off actually cold and like rude. He was very worried about that because he just wouldn’t speak. He said between takes he would be whistling to himself and not making eye contact. He said luckily Gwyneth is one of the coolest, doesn’t give a shit, chillest person you could ever meet. She was incredible. Jenna said she was so much fun. Jenna said her stature is so large. Kevin said that aura. Jenna said she comes up and you are like oh my god like I get it. She was so cool and so chill and hung out with them between takes. She didn’t walk away. Kevin said she was always with them hanging out. She brought her kids a lot. It was really a fun time and Jenna said she doesn’t think they ever expected that from Gwyneth. Gwyneth gave them all hand written thank you notes for being on the show. It was really sweet. Jenna said she remembers being like oh we are doing two musical numbers. Kevin said when he realized he was singing on a song with her he couldn’t wait for his family to see this. I have really come up. Jenna asked Kevin if he remembered when Gwyneth came on tour and did the O2 with them. They did Forget You. She said she had Apple with her. She rehearsed with them and said she wanted to go out and watch the show. Jenna thinks that Gwyneth got escorted by Telly to a seat. She was wearing a Glee sweatshirt with the hood up and no one knew. Kevin said no one knew because we were so entertaining no one was watching Gwyneth in the audience. Jenna said yeah sure. Jenna was like you are going to watch the show. You don’t want to stay back here and hang. Kevin said he feels like he performed most of that show for Apple and her friends. He said right before it started Apple nicknamed him Artiepants. They ere standing on the side of the stage and every time he would go over there he would yell out Artiepants and point to them and they would scream and dance around. Kevin said it was very surreal. You grow up hearing about someone and seeing them in movies and tabloids in things and were like oh now we are just hanging with Gwyneth in London or eating pizza off the hood of a car on the backlot as they are shooting with her and her kids. Jenna said this is wild. Kevin said they are still friends and she is great and wonderful. Jenna said we love her. Jenna said she is just in the Glee family now having married Brad. Kevin said see Glee was life changing for her too.

There is a flu going around and Sue makes sure Principal Figgins gets it. Zizes sneezes on Figgins. Jenna said this moment made her think of covid. She was like don’t sneeze on them. Kevin said no very scary. Figgins gets very sick and Sue becomes principal and her first order of business is she is going to destroy the glee club again. Will gets sick and this will be the other part of this episode. Will goes down as well.

Sue also tries to take down the football team. The both start laughing about the scene where Sue goes to Coach Bieste and disbanding the football team. Coach Bieste, for the first time we see her in a power position, says well who are your cheerleaders going to cheer for. Sue’s reaction was great. Jenna said this was one of her favorite scenes. Kevin said he loved this scene. Cut to her writing her book, humiliation. it’s so good.

So obviously then with Schue down bad with the monkey flu we need a new Glee club instructor. Rachel tries it for a hot second which is very funny but the Glee club is obviously not having it. Kurt recruits the sub for Spanish which is none other then Holly Holliday aka Gwyneth Paltrow. He convinces her to take over the Glee club after being in her English class where she does a full musical number of Conjunction Junction. Kevin she some in, in what he thinks is probably one of the most famous scenes of the show now. Puck buttering the floor, Kurt and Rachel slipping on the butter, and Gwyneth cooly sliding in. Jenna asked Kevin if I he remembered how Gwyneth did the butter. Kevin said he didn’t. Jenna said they put her on roller skates and she skated in. Kevin said he doesn’t remember that at all. Jenna was going on today with roller skates. Kevin said he remembers not knowing what was going on and clearly they didn’t read the script. He said how do we know what was happening this scene. Jenna said they were like what’s going on with the butter and what are you talking about but yeah she was on roller skates or rollerblades. She said she will never forget it.

So Holly comes in and asks them what they want to do. Jenna said which is such a concept and its like when a director asked them what they wanted to do. Puck says Ceelo and so Holly Holiday does her first number. Kevin said Gwyneth ended up doing this at the Grammys with Ceelo which is crazy. That’s a crazy impact. That was one of the biggest songs of the year, you are nominated for a Grammy, and you have Gwyneth Paltrow come on a do it with you because that version was so big. Kevin said isn’t that insane. Jenna said it’s crazy. She said she didn’t know Gwyneth could sing like that and asked Kevin if he knew. Kevin said no and that she was super excited to do it. A lot of the guest stars wanted to come on the show because a lot of people can sing and don’t get the opportunity to if they are movie stars or tv stars. There’s not a lot of musical going around. He said he thinks she sounded great on the song.

Jenna said they had to go back to Conjunction Junction for just one second. She said their producers found this thing and its like got goss. She said when Holly Holiday makes that dig about Lindsay Lohan, Kevin said oh that was in the Spanish class, apparently Deena Lohan was very upset about the jab and she doesn’t know if thats true. There are reports that cast made amends with Lindsay over a dinner. Kevin said it wasn’t a dinner. They did hang out with her after the SAG awards at the Chateau Mormont. He said he thinks that is what this has to be in reference to. He said he does think Ryan is mean and stupid and she didn’t deserve it. It was at the time where everyone was ragging on Lindsay. Jenna said it felt like anything went at that point. Kevin said which is terrible. They hung out with her and he said he thinks her and Chris stayed friends for awhile. Jenna said WHAT?!?! Kevin said she was cool with us. Jenna said and then she came on the show so she was fine. Jenna said she thought maybe there was a dinner with Ryan and Lindsay. Kevin said maybe but he sort of assumed it was what he talked about before because they hung out all night. Jenna said yeah you guys did. Kevin’s as like where were you. Jenna said she was there but she didn’t hang out with her. Kevin said why would have been there and not with us. Jenna said she was but she didn’t hang out with her, she didn’t engage. Kevin said did you have a beef with Lindsay Lohan. Jenna said yeah. She did a photoshoot with Jenna’s ex-boyfriend at one point and it was very sexy and she was not a fan of her. Kevins said I remember this. Jenna said she was sure Lindsay was going to make a pass at him and neither of them cared, that’s the funny part. She shouldn’t have blamed Lindsay she should blamed her ex-boyfriend. Kevin said he completely forgot about that. Jenna said her and Lindsay grew up in the same town essentially on Long Island. They used to run in the same circles and audition for the same things. She said they grew up acting. She said she doesn’t think she worked with Lindsay all that much. Kevin said crazy. He said because they were all around the same ageish and growing up in LA he started getting snuck into clubs at 16 or 17 and that all stopped when she got caught going into clubs underage. They started putting sheriffs outside all the clubs they would go to. Jenna said she ruined it for you. Kevin said yep.

Kevins said they watched the episode and they know what happens.

Kevin said do you remember at this Grammy. Gwyneth introduced them to Beyoncé. She performed with Ceelo. Gwyneth and Beyoncé went as each others dates at the Grammys and sat in the front row. The glee cast were in the 6 or 7 row. Dianna was like next commercial break we are going to make a run for it and they weren’t going to tell anyone else because they can’t have everyone joining us. Jenna said what the hell. Kevin said it was going to be too many people to coordinate. Jenna said fair whatever. Kevin was like it’s Beyoncé I’ve got to go. So they go up and some of them did see us and did join them. Gwyneth was like oh do you know B and introduced them. Kevin said Beyoncé stands and was just very quiet and smiling and Gwyneth was like are we going to do shots after this, very Holly Holiday, and she looks at Beyoncé and Beyoncé was like yeah. Jennas said Beyoncé is kind of short. Like she her stature is even bigger then Gwyneth. Kevin said they are the same height but she wears heels all the time. Jenna said she imagined Beyoncé being twice her height, well she is in all fairness. Jenna said this is the infamous Naya story. They went to the bathroom and Naya was pinning up her dress and Beyoncé came in and was like weren’t you in a movie with my sister. Naya was on the floor pinning Jenna’s dress and she was like no. Beyoncé was like are you sure. Naya was like yeah yeah. Beyoncé was like who told me that. Jenna said they both walked out of the bathroom and were like what just happened. Kevin said he thinks Beyoncé turned to a random person at the sink and was like did you tell me that. He said his sister was in the bathroom with Jenna and Naya. He said he didn’t know where the other boys were. It was only him and they were at an after party. He came out of the bathroom and there was no one around and he looks up and it’s just Jay-z and his body guard. He immediately looked down at his lap like oh my god, oh my god. They had met him before through Gwyneth but anyway. He said his sister came out of the bathroom and was like oh my god do you know what just happened in there. She was with Gwyneth Paltrow and Beyoncé and they are fixing someone’s dress and then Beyoncé asked her for mints because she was taking out these mints. He said he was giving his sister shit all night for having these mints because he thinks they were making her breath worse because she kept eating them because she was so nervous and then Beyoncé asked for mints and his sister was like you can have all of them which he would have said too. Jenna said she doesn’t remember that. Jenna said what a great memory of their one Grammy experience. Then she said that’s not true they went to the Grammys after that but they didn’t go for Glee. Kevin said no we didn’t. We only go to the Grammys when we are nominated. Jenna said that’s fair.

Now back to the show. Holly Holiday is obviously killing it with all of us. We love it. We love her. Sue loves her. Sue is having a gay old time with Holly Holiday. Rachel is like Mr. Schue this girl is coming for your job. You need to come back or you won’t have a job to com back to. He starts to get paranoid and rightfully so because Sue fires him. She hires Holly full time which brings them to a full confrontation. Holly is like look there aren’t a lot of good jobs out there and I need this job. In the meantime what Holly has done has won over Rachel a bit because yo you suck, you are a total drag has everyone ever told you that. Puck’s like I have. Rachel realizes there was an uptempo number she has always wanted to do. Kevin said he loves all these whips to Schue trying to find a Journey song they haven’t done yet. Then they do this big Chicago number which was insane and great. He asked Jenna if she remembers watching it. Jenna said she remembers being happy she was in the audience, Kevin said same, not really remembering watching them but then also being like oh my god they really made both of these girls work really hard. Kevin said and then also budget. Jenna said for Gwyneth you bring budget. Well Gwyneth was the budget but also you bring budget. Kevin said he always did wonder how much the guest stars got paid. Jenna said she thinks it varied. Kevin said probably. Jenna said she doesn’t think it was one rate. Kevin said they have never and will never be privy to that information. Jenna said never. Kevin said guests were the entire budget.

Meanwhile, while Will is home and Holly is basically taking over the Glee club, he is being taken care of by the one and only Terri Schuester. As crazy as she is she knows Will. She brings him soup. She rubs his chest with the vapo rub. Kevin mimics the sick little baby line. Jenna said the baby voice makes her very uncomfortable. Kevin said he hates it because its so good. Will is like get out of here don’t come back but she comes back. She takes care of him in many ways. She gives him Singing in the Rain to watch. This leads to his fever dream of this wonderful number, very random, between him and Harry. Kevin said it’s so random and out of place but excellent. Jenna said its very exciting to watch. Jenna said this number starts and she’s like oh right this is the Singing in the Rain number front his episode, I remember this. Then she looks to the left of screen and was like is that Tina and then she is like that’s not me it’s a crew girl. It’s Tina. Kevin said he remembers her being a part of this. Jenna said she wishes she did because she doesn’t remember being there. Kevin said she didn’t have a lot comparatively. Jenna said she genuinely looked at the screen was was like is that Tina. Kevin said there has been a few times he has done that since they have been doing this podcast. Jenna said okay fair and this was the first one where she was alarmed at the fact that she doesn’t remember being there. Kevin said imagine if you are out on a night and you have a little too much to drink and someone shows you a photo from that night a decade later and you are like I wasn’t there. I left at the first bar. Jenna said that is what it feels like without the fun of the alcohol. Jenna said and then she sees Kevin and the others and was like okay other people were there. Okay I was there. I don’t remember being there. Kevin said if they didn’t have to do anything they really sort of checked out. Jenna said to be fair she doesn’t think they were in a lot of the shots so they don’t think were actually even on the stage. Kevin said we weren’t. Jenna said just making sure. Kevin said you brain is fine.

Terri comes back and is taking care of him again. Somehow they end up canoodling. Kevin said that is one word for it. Jenna said she was like no don’t do it. Kevin said this was the start of a vapor rub. Jenna said this is the beginning and the end or well it should be. Kevin said Terri’s vapor rub walked so your vapor rub could run. Jenna said I’m not quite sure why she was there or why that happened but it moved storyline along. Then Rachel comes and tells him he needs to comeback. She had a mask which is also very covid ptsd. Kevin said they are going to talk about Mercedes with the tots but she gets in trouble for doing something now that Holly is the full time teacher. Holly is like I don’t know to do this actually, I’ve accepted this job and don’t know how to do it. She goes to Schuesters house and has this really great scene. They are really great together. She is upset and vulnerable and starts to open up. They were having a really adult and meaningful conversation. Terri shows up and Holly was like ooh drama. Will kicks her out seemingly for good. Holly says your wife is a bitch.

They other thing happening in this episode is Kurt, Blaine, and Mercedes. Kurt is becoming closer to Blaine. He is spending every waking second with him. They have all these plans. The person that is getting the brunt of the dereliction basically of friendship is Mercedes. Kurt sees Blaine as his new bff in a way and Mercedes is put out to pasture basically. She is like what about me. She keeps trying to make plans and s he’s not excited for him. Meanwhile we see that she loves the tater tots. Jenna said she wondering why the tots came in that scene. Why are they using Mercedes and food right now. What is this thing but then she was like okay okay okay. So Sue decides as part of he principal campaign and reforming the school was reforming the children’s diets and taking away the tots. Mercedes is not happy about it. She loses it. They get taken away. She’s upset. He is basically the third wheel on that date with Kurt and Blaine. Kurt tries to include her and she orders tots. Kurt tries to set her up with someone and Mercedes is just because he is black. Kurt is like kind of. Kurt gives it to her straight and is like I think you are replacing me with food. She brings a box of tots to school. Kevin said he loves when she stands up in the cafeteria and does that Sally Field with the union sign, it’s very that, and everyone stands up and screams tots and Chris is shocked. Kevin said he just loves seeing them together. Then Mercedes stuffs Sue’s Lecar exhaust with tots. Then Holly is brought in and Jenna said she is not sure why Schue or Holly are brought in with the child. Kevin said he just accept it but why. Jenna said because we need a voice of reason against Sue because kids can’t talk back to adults. Mercedes can’t talk back to Sue or she will get expelled. Jenna said she thought it was funny that there was always one of them in there. Kevin said their glee club teacher was their voice. This is where Holly realizes this is out of her capacity and she doesn’t know what she is doing. Mercedes is going to get stuck with he bill to fix the car and Holly was like is this on me, am I going to jail? This is when she shows up at Schue’s place and admits she is out of her depth. This is also when Sue realizes Holly is not a capable teacher in this way. Great as a substitute but we need Schue back as well. Everyone wants Schue back. Sue likes a good foe and Holly is not a good enough foe for her at all. Kevin said does it ever get fully resolved. Jenna said she thinks that she has to repair it and that’s basically it.

Then we get to all roads lead to this pool of water on the auditorium stage. Will realizes when he gets back the kids miss Holly and he’s like okay can you help me make up this number and modernize Singing in the Rain. Jenna said she remembers the umbrellas were an issue. They were not meant to be open and closed every two seconds. Kevin jumped in saying everything was an issue with this number. Jenna said some people really love this number and watching she was like this looks really cool. Kevin said it looks great. Filming it was a nightmare. Kevin said he never hated anything more and said actually that’s not true. Jenna said what the fox say. She then explained their was a box on the stage and it was about a foot high, maybe not even, on each side. It was very short and low to the ground. Then it’s was covered in vinyl and they put water in it. Kevin said and carpet, now they have talked to Andrew and Ryan, there was some sort of carpet in there so they wouldn’t slip. Jenna said thats right they did put the carpet in there. Jenna said she remembers rehearing and said they didn’t rehearse with the extra umbrellas. She said first of all thee is a problem there because these umbrellas weren’t prop umbrellas meant to be open and closed a thousand times. In the choreography you can’t really tell but they were opening and closing them a thousand times. This was the least of their problems though. Jenna said water on the stage did not belong. Kevin said that was just from their perspective and they didn’t know all the other stuff that was going out hat Ryan and Andrew talked about int heir episodes. Andrew told them about the issue with the carpet. Ryan wanted it cleaned out because it got moldy and the water wasn’t clear. So they had to drain it and clean it. They didn’t want to put the cast at risk. Then they were suds in there from cleaning the carpet. Jenna said they told them to kick up as much water as they could get in the air so when they shoot in 48 frames, double time, to make it look like slow motion. People were really getting in there and it was getting into their faces. By the end of one take of the number their rain boots had water up to their shins. The would take their shoes off and just pour the water off. Jenna said she couldn’t see and she was afraid she was going to get hit by an umbrella. It was Ryan directing so they didn’t want to complain.

Jenna said that Kevin was low to the ground and in the corner. Kevin said if you watch the number he doesn’t move. After he does his little Jay-z thing he is as far back in the right corner as possible. He couldn’t see, he was wearing glasses and actually needs them. He was at waist level so everyone is intentionally kicking water up to the height of his face and because he was sitting it was all collecting in his lap. The water might have been warm when it was put in the box but by the time was sitting their being kicked up and exposed to the air its no longer warm. The seat, his clothes, everything was just soaking, sopping, wet. He sat there for half a day. He was so miserable. He wasn’t even dancing. He is barely at the edge of the frame in three shots. He was like he was barely in the number and he had just given up. He had no will to perform and was like I can’t do it. Jenna said if she was him she would have given up too. Kevin said you couldn’t see his eyes anyways and that he might have just been moving his arms. What was he going to do? It was really hard to wheel around the water logged carpet. No one could push him around because they all had props. Jenna said oh no Artie. Kevin said people really do love the number and every time someone says he has to check himself. Jenna said her initial reaction is eugh but it looked really cool. Kevin said its also weird that Holly and Will were performing with the Glee club. Jenna said you had to have a Gwyneth number at the end. Jenna said she remembers looking at the stage in the episode last night when she was watching and thinking oh you wouldn’t really know how they did that and she was like okay I get how people really like this. It looks really cool. Kevin said the rain is coming down in the back. Jenna said she didn’t remember that part. It was really not fun. Kevin said the crew members that actually had to figure out how to do it and get it and drain it and redo it like ugh so good. Jenna said Gwyneth didn’t complain for one second. Kevin said here is the things Gwyneth never ever complained about anything. He said he doesn’t know how much she was getting paid so maybe I wouldn’t either. He said they were constantly learning when they had guest stars and famous people. He said watching her was an education. She did not complain. If she was off camera she would do full out every dance move. When they did Chicago and were getting the audience reactions she was doing it full out. She’s as a professional. Kevins said when she did Turning Tables that was also an education. Jenna said she forgot about that number. Kevin said to remind him to tell that story when they get to that episode.

Jenna said this episode was a journey. Kevins said he likes this episode. He really enjoyed it. Minus some Lindsay Lohan jokes it was really good episode.

Tartie Takes:

Cringe moments/ Ouchies- Kevin the Lindsay Lohan references and Holly’s bipolar rant. Jenna said while her Mary Todd Lincoln impression was very funny the joke itself about the bipolar was not funny. She said all her classroom moments were funny.

Best Dance Move - Kevins said I guess Singing in the Rain. Jenna I don’t know I’ve got to say Harry and Matt doing all those crazy backflips. They really did that. Kevin said, yeah you right, you win. Jenna said I always do.

Best Song - Forget You. Kevin said he does have to say this happened in the last episode with Jenna singing in the mash-up but Naya is singing her face off in these adlibs and is not covered for a single one of them. Jenna said not for a moment. Kevin said in the tour, the live version, you get to see her singing it and singing it live and she sounds incredible. Jenna said she forgot about that too.

Best Performance by a Prop - the tots and not the water bucket they were dancing in

Best Line - Kevin’s favorite line is when Mercedes is at Breadstix with Kurt and Blaine and you just hear gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, I opened my mouth and a little purse felt out. How did that get in there? Jenna said I love that. Kevin said he is obsessed with that. Jenna said that was very funny. Kevin said so good .Jenna said she has another one. When Will says when I’m sick there one thing that makes me feel better and Artie says, and it’s all in the delivery, Gin and juice.

Shit We Found on TikTok:

Kevin asks Jennta are you ready. Jenna said wow bringing back all the old school inside jokes back. She said I’m not ready but I’m ready. Someone on TikTok does the summer surgery fight. It’s two guys in cheerleading uniforms. Jenna watched it laughs hysterically. Kevin said he thinks it’s wonderful. Jenna said it’s really funny. Kevin said isn’t it cute. Jenna said very cute. Kevin said thanks for making that video its great. Jenna said it’s really cute. Kevin said some of the comments are like the one guy really looks like Quinn and Quinn voice fits him. Kevin said he agrees, they look like they could be relegated. Great work and big fan.

Jenna said thanks for that talk and thanks for listening. That was the Substitute and we hope you will come back next week to recap Furt. Kevin said oh Furt and then asked do you remember anything from Furt. Jenna said I think this when they get married. Kevin said wait Jenna you were a pescatarian up until Furt. Jenna said Kevin what a memory and then I wasn’t anymore. They had spicy chicken sandwiches from Wendy’s. Her first meal back, what a meal. Kevin said for Furt they will be talking about spicy chicken sandwiches, marriage, Bruno Mars, and Tequila shots. Jenna said oh Romy. Get ready.

Come back next week.
