Addendum: Gethin Anthony (Renly Baratheon) is also voicing a character in the new Mass Effect game. -
There is absolutely no way in Hell Alexis would not show up at some point. Alexis is almost all people like me on the outside know about Dynasty. It's more likely they're saving her up. But no one can do Joan Collins. I guess I'll read the script tonight or tomorrow since this widespread gmail issue has me too paranoid to do much.

Twin Peaks is doing SXSW. Tomorrow is Twin Peaks Day (the anniversary of the in-series date of the pilot/Laura's body being found), and the first issue of The Blue Rose, the new magazine from the co-creator of the legendary Wrapped in Plastic fanzine, is out. Check it out here or buy it digitally on Amazon, as I will.

The FBI declines to help the WH out re: Russian stories.

I mean, is he wrong?

Bannon rants about his need to deconstruct our government.

What they did to Pauline was when I started really detaching from EE for years. I just thought it was too far, I still do. Shock and agony for its own sake, no matter how well-produced. If you salt the earth that much you don't have a lot left. They've begun rebuilding the Fowlers but given the state of NuMichelle it's far from perfect, and I don't trust them to not have Stacey leaving Martin hanging (though I love them together). The kid playing Preston is fine though you can tell the American accent is a little too polished, like most British attempts. But I'm used to that and he's alright.

Natalie Dormer features in Mass Effect: Andromeda, reminding me I have to finish the third game in the original trilogy.

I don't have a problem with Keith Ellison personally so much as the elements of the left insisting on him above all else, but I haven't been paying much attention lately. I'd be fine with him or Perez. Did he do or say something else?

Kellyanne is in media jail.

I am hesitant to discuss this in public but putting aside their commentary, with regards to just the details of the basic plot beats, from what I can see, yes. That's all correct.

Post-cancer Kassie DePaiva reunites with Robin Strasser and Kristen Alderson.

Steven is in the show, IIRC.

The Blaisdels are not nixed from the reboot. I can say there is one very big character I saw no sign of in my cursory glance. And I am not a big Dynasty fan so that should tip you off.
-
Alfie Allen joins the cast of Shane Black's The Predator - a huge get for him. I love Shane Black's writing, I love the Predator and I am looking forward to this immensely.

Potemkine Films, a French film company, is releasing a Lynch documentary in the coming months; as part of their promotional effort on Twitter they inadvertantly released an image of a handwritten(!) script page for the new Twin Peaks. It can be seen here. The text as far as I can make it out is as follows: This seems to correspond to filming done in Paris near the end of the shoot at a sidewalk cafe.

I completely agree re: Michelle. I was baffled when they said she was applying for teaching jobs - a simple google search would find her out at any school. They don't seem to get how it is over here.
-
I also think NuMichelle is pretty pathetic, sad and occasionally creepy most of the time. That's not the Michelle I remember and it doesn't have to be written this way. I think Jenna Russell is capable of playing a more grounded, tough version of the character, but they have her sort of waning and pining as the horny schoolmarm.

Again: It's not 1983 anymore (nor should it be). Rich people are not exclusively white. The conception of a well-to-do upper crust family is not limited to the concept of the white WASP. And there is nothing wrong with a black family being more powerful than the Carringtons. America has changed, culture has changed, wealth has changed. We're not frozen in stasis based on the concepts of the ancient Spelling soap - I know they were super-popular in Europe as a glitzy fantasy vision of America, but it's not actually accurate. I am not endorsing this reboot in any way as I don't care about Dynasty, but acting like changing the races of the characters over 30 years later is a bridge too far is silly to me.

Their base doesn't have to be "white".
-
It's not the 1980s anymore.
-
I think those are two very different shows, but I am not endorsing either.
-
Michael Cohen is on the run from the Sater/Russia story.
-
I've also gotten the script, but haven't read it yet. But I am no big Dynasty fan, so I'm not a good judge. Could not give a fúck that the cast is less white.
