Judging by the text of the TMZ notice, I hope it's not some sort of life support situation but it could well be. In the meantime, now is as a good a moment as any to post this amusing montage of her in That 70s Show. She turned into a pretty funny chick as she got older:

Oh dear.

A Trump appointee:

A very mediocre tenure, sadly.

As @Khanreminded me, black-ish leaned in on using COVID in story. So has The Conners, and both shows made it pay off for them dramatically as well as in some ways comedically. It's a shame soaps in this country won't, but Emmerdale did it right.

AFAIC it's a disgrace how American soaps have largely ignored COVID-19. I think it's the medium's responsibility to educate and empathize with the public in real time and it's a feature daily soaps can cover like no other television. I know there's a lot of people who say "oh, I don't want to watch that when I turn on TV" - well, too bad. As Jamey Giddens said, Agnes Nixon would've done it and Emmerdale was right to do it. Lovely speech.

Still need to catch up! Candice Bergen is debuting as Ben's mom:

Speaking of: It is not lost on me that the current version of Ben Mitchell (while played by a talented actor) is ruggedly masculine and as far removed from any prior nerdy, more intellectual or potentially pretty/effeminate incarnation of the character as possible. I can't tell him and Callum apart in many shots tbqh. I miss Harry Reid.

I think we have a shot at Georgia. It's tough but possible.

Everyone's blaming McConnell for killing the $2K, which is good.

Next you can try watching the actual show.

I'm trying to find a polite way to tell my roommate (who took intense, spy-level precautions to travel home to Florida for family over the holiday) not to come back rn, lol.

I'm always here for more '90s Loving, especially Agnes stuff. How much if any of Elise Neal as Janie is online?

I had time for the silly vocal song used on the PP show because it was the best soap of the 2010s (period!!), but you're never going to improve on the classic AMC theme and the new show shouldn't try. Just update it again like they did in the 2000s.
