The Scoop for August 28, 2018

President Trump was recently able to work out a new NAFTA deal with Mexico, and to help announce the new deal, he got the President of Mexico on the phone…and that didn’t go so well. You would think that being the President of the United States, someone would make sure when he picked up the phone, there would be someone on the other end. Especially when you’re on live TV, but that’s just me.

As ABC moves forward with The Conners without Roseanne, the question is, What happened to Roseanne? Well according to John Goodman, the character of Roseanne dies in this show. But, as we know, dying on TV isn’t always forever, Right Dan?

Yesterday was a pretty big day in music, because Weird Al finally got his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. And Al only had one request… Don’t pick axe his star. Seems fair.

Bonus Scoopage:
John Carpenter‘s 1986 comedy Big Trouble in Little China got the remake order back in 2015, with Dwayne Johnson set to play the lead role. Three years later, though, one of the new movie’s producers explains that the project has evolved from a remake into something else: a Big Trouble in Little China sequel that continues the story from the original. I’m way more down for that than a retread. So let’s get to it.
