Lisa and I would meet every couple of weeks for lunch - quote, unquote - and then we'd get around to, 'What do you think Valerie would be doing right now?' King said at SXSW, where the first two episodes of the third and final season of what they're now calling 'a trilogy' screened to a rapt audience of The Comeback die-hards.

It's tough ... I didn't think that I'd have quite an emotional reaction. It's what you have to hold on to, is the memories of it all.

Hacks has won a slew of Emmys and a Peabody; accumulated acclaim from critics and a devoted fan base; propelled Jean Smart, Hannah Einbinder, and Megan Stalter to new levels of fame.

The opening episode proves that the comedic chemistry between Conor and Jock remains intact, delivering laughs and showcasing their unique friendship.

I think everybody understood that it was the last season of the show. If it isn't, then I've completely blown it.

Peter Tork from the Monkees had a strange little quirk. Sometimes, when other actors were delivering their lines Tork would unthinkingly mouth their dialogue along with them, as seen in this YouTube compilation. Once you spot it, it makes the show (which was already kinda weird) weird in a whole new way.

We obviously grew up together and spent a lot of time on camera together, she said. To not have that for 20 years and work with different people and have all these different experiences, and then come back together? Oh my god, I remember how much I know you on camera and you know me on camera.' It's so special, and it was so much fun because we work really well together.

A mark of a true romance is that the couple are closer than anyone else in the world. As Emily Bronte said, whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same. This is true for Miss Piggy and Kermit. They've had a longer relationship than most TV couples (since 1976), although it has been tumultuous. No matter what universe, from Dickensian London to Treasure Island to their various TV shows and movies over the years, they find each other.

If you woke up too early on a Saturday, you'd turn on the TV to find... nothing. Just a test pattern or static. Television stations actually signed off at night and didn't start broadcasting again until morning. Can you imagine explaining this to kids today? That there was literally nothing to watch? No Netflix library, no YouTube, no endless content.

In 1977, Star Trek was gearing up for a comeback. After being canceled in 1969 and enjoying a brief return as an animated series in 1973, the beloved sci-fi series was finally coming back to live action. History will tell you this resulted in the 1979 film Star Trek: The Motion Picture, but before that, there were very serious plans for a sequel TV series, generally referred to as Star Trek: Phase II.

The sad passing of Catherine O'Hara has doubtlessly sent fans back to binge some of her most iconic work. From Home Alone to Schitt's Creek, and everything in between, O'Hara's unique sense of humor and relatability made her a legend. But what are the deepest cuts in O'Hara's oeuvre? What about for fans of science fiction and fantasy? The short answer to that second question might be her memorable turn in Beetlejuice,

It was a Stranger Things spinoff showcase on Saturday Night Livelast night. In the pre-taped sketch, the Duffer Brothers had some success getting the cast back together to film an internet-demanded ninth episode.

There's so much going on in the world, in our country, and hell, in our own work and family lives. Just because the headlines are straight out of a dystopian novel doesn't mean your kids stopped needing you to help with their homework. When our days are full of so many demands, no wonder we feel hyped up and anxious by the time the kids are in bed.

hitting a big red reset button, which turns out to be just what the franchise needed. Executive-produced by Seth Rogen, this Muppet Show plays like an episode of the classic variety series, which premiered 50 years ago, right down to the theme song, the practical effects, and Statler and Waldorf heckling about its very faithful rebootiness: "If it ain't broke -" "They are broke! That's why they're doing it!" Har har har!
