The Scoop for Aug. 10, 2018

We don’t really see Macaulay Culkin a ton these days. But, if CBS had their way, we’d be seeing him all the time. Apparently back in the day, they talked to Macaulay three times about staring in The Big Band Theory”, and he said no. Now you’re probably thinking, “Does he know what he passed up?” Yeah, yeah he does. He says, sure he’d have “…hundreds of millions of dollars right now if I did that gig. At the same time, I’d be bashing my head against the wall.” You know, if I had to work with that Sheldon guy every day, it would drive me nuts too.

So “Fox and Friends” did a story on Kim Jong Un and it was super weird…because they said, quote “Turns out Kim Jong Un is quite the romantic. The North Korean dictator taking his wife on a tour of a fish pickling factory.” Ok. I don’t even know where to start. Romantic dictator? Fish pickling factory? Because I was just telling my wife yesterday, you know, for our next anniversary, we should really get away to a fish pickling factory, you know, for some one on one time.

Reboot mania rolls on. Kelsey Grammer says that yep, Frasier could actually come back. And Kelsey says he’s good with that, as long as it’s good.
That and if the check clears right Kels? I mean, c’mon. We all know what these reboots are about. Money. That and we can’t think of anything new any more.

Bonus Scoopage:
TMZ says that HGTV IS planning on turning the “Brady Bunch” house into a COPY of the Bradys TV house . . . but it won’t be easy. The indoor scenes were filmed on a set, and the inside of the real house looks nothing like it. So they’re going to basically gut the inside, and add onto it . . . going from 2,400-square feet to 4,000-square feet. TV magic. That’s what it’s all about.
