The Scoop for Aug. 13, 2019

Fans of the show Friends are a bit sad. Their favorite show is leaving Netflix, and there’s no talk of a reboot or relaunch. But there is some good news for Friends Fans.
Thanks to Fathom Events, Friends is coming to the big screen for a three night event. Friends 25th: The One With the Anniversary will show 12 iconic episodes in over 1,000 movie theaters. Details on where you can watch should be there by the end of the week.


Speaking of friends, Courteney Cox is trying to teach her kid to say “I Know” like her “Friends” character Monica does, with varying degrees of success.
Look, I get it. The first time her kids gets it right, it’s going to be the cutest thing ever. But then, about a year in, Courteney is going to regret ever teaching that kid to talk, much less use her catch phrase.

I’m sure you’ve played Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, where you see how many steps it takes to get to Kevin Bacon. You know who else plays that game? Kevin Bacon. Here he is plotting out how many degrees he is from Indiana Jones, and it’s not many.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say I’d watch Kevin Bacon in an Indiana Jones movie. Heck, I’d watch him AS Indiana Jones. Go ahead and hate, you know Kevin would be awesome as Indy.


Bonus Scoopage:

Spoiler: Jack Black is working with Jack White on a new tune. You’re welcome.
