Hey, almost naked. Well done, you.
ReplyDeleteit wasn't easy picking just the right one... I have tones of Ryan's shirtless pics you know.....
DeleteYou crack me up. That's good stuff.
Deleteand it wasn't even a joke :)
DeleteI know, that's what
Deletemakes it good stuff. :-)
:)
DeleteFrickin' so cold here today. Making hot coffee now. Nothing baking or cooking on the stove-top. Would have been a good day to make a cauldron of pizza sauce.
ReplyDeleteit's hot here, but we constantly have rains as if it's a Monsoon period!
DeleteBlunt Talk sounds interesting. Patrick Stewart is a great actor!
ReplyDeleteI hope it will be a great sitcom! Ian McKellen and Derek Jacobi already have their sitcom VICIOUS, so why wouldn't Patrick have his :)
DeletePatrick Stewart... the only real Trek actor still working on bigger projects. Put a shirt on, it's cold out side and well just put a shirt on... lol
ReplyDeletewho me? Are you saying I don't look good shirtless? Are you? Are you?..... well, not that it isn't true.... :)
Deleteno your man scape is great... just missing the ladies of the hollywood spy...
Deletetheir appearance depends on Hollywood, not on the spy! And rare are the news with ladies..... gents rule the town....
DeletePatrick Stewart sound make Blunt Talk fun to watch.
ReplyDeleteI think it might be a really great sitcom! The only bad thing could be the fact that the sitcom will be produced by Seth McFarlane.
DeleteI read Blunt Talk is going to be produced by Seth MacFarlane. I hope that doesn't turn some away, I do love Patrick Stewart.
ReplyDeleteyes, it is true, and that is what scares me.... if I remember correctly Seth has a rude sense of humour, doesn't he?
DeleteSometimes he is funny, and sometimes he goes over the line just to go there.
Deleteyep, like in MILLION WAYS TO DIE IN THE WEST
DeleteI hope we get BLUNT TALK! down under. Love Patrick Stewart. Such a great actor :)
ReplyDeleteand such a fun person privately too :) I always love his escapades with McKellen :)
DeletePrivately? I knew it!
Deletehaven't you seen the two of them going out to town at nights together and having crazy fun?
DeleteCan't say I have.

DeleteThe Patrick Stewart show sounds really interesting. Your site seems like a lot of fun!
ReplyDeletethanks, glad you like it :) and glad to see you visiting!
DeleteWhat does she mean... "seems"?
Deletea rookie mistake... Blue... a rookie mistake....
DeleteStewart in a new sitcom. It should be interesting to see him in a comedy. They must be confident of its success to be ordering that many episodes up front.
ReplyDeleteI also think I would like Indian Summers. It was quite a struggle for India to throw off the British oppressors. I hope they are honest about how many of the Brits viewed the native peoples. Also it will be nice to see the story from India's point of view.
Starz always works like that, dear. They don't order pilots, but whole series. This is because they have a system in which they set workshops in which writers create scripts, and if they conclude that they have enough strong stories they will order the whole series. This is why most of their shows are so great, from SPARTACUS to DA VINCI'S DEMONS.
DeleteI'm deeply intrigued by INDIAN SUMMERS, since we haven't had many series from that topic and period. One of my dreams is to have a tea plantation in some exotic part of the world :) Dear, you could spend your summers as my guest then :)
I'm not a huge fan of Stewart. I find him so wooden.
ReplyDeleteWINTERWORLD could be interesting.
First time I hear somebody not liking Stewart :) Not that I adore him... I like his escapades with McKellen and I loved him in STARTREK and in LION IN WINTER
DeleteOh yum, sounds like some good ones coming up. I love Patrick Stewart and Indian Summer and the WinterWorld Series sounds good.
ReplyDeleteWe shall enjoy all of them, methinks. I just hope that the humour in BLUNT TALK won't be offensive but refined
DeletePatrick Stewart in a comedy? That will be VERY interesting. You never know, he could be very funny.
ReplyDeleteindeed he could, haven't you seen him doing mischief with Ian McKellen every night in London?
DeleteI wonder if Patrick Stewart's character is based on Piers Morgan? He pissed off a lot of Yanks by his constant (and justified) promotion of gun control.
ReplyDeletepossibly, although I'm not closely familiar with Morgan
DeleteA Jem Movie? Oh, doll, you just made my day! That was SOOO my show when I was little. I still run around singing the theme song all the time. *She's truly, truly, truly outrageous!*
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of it before, but I've concluded that it was a cult show back in the days :) Barbie is also getting her live action movie next year
DeleteIndian Summers can be good. Have a lovely Thursday.
ReplyDeleteI do love the potential of that exotic project
DeleteTwo 20 episode seasons.... Well, that sure is something to look forward to, Dezzy. I love Stewart. He's got a great voice too.
ReplyDeleteyep, they obviously have faith in it
DeleteDoes that mean you probably won't like it? ;)
DeleteI like most of the things that Starz does... so it's possible I will like it, although I don't like Seth Macfarlane's humour....
DeleteHumor... is that what it is? ;)
Deletehe seems to think so....
DeleteLove Indian summer Dezzy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for ask for me, was a Little earthquake, you know we have had someones really strong!
xo
glad to hear all is well, dear! We've been also having natural disasters in the form of floods down south here ... nature has gone crazy
