The Scoop for Feb. 18, 2021

George Thorogood just re-released his “George Thorogood and the Destroyers Live in Boston 1982” album, with bonus tracks. While talking about it, he had a pretty interesting little story about meeting the Rolling Stones.
One of them asked for his autograph.
You know it was Bill Wyman who asked for the autograph. There’s no way Keith or Mick was asking. At least they let Bill go first.


Say what you want, but I’ve always liked Tim Burton’s stuff, and his next project seems perfect for him. He’s teaming up with Netflix for a live action show about Wednesday Addams from the Addams family.
Now, give me a Lurch/Thing show and I’m all in. Think of it. It could be a buddy cop type thing. They go around solving crimes, and Uncle Fester could be a recurring character.


So this may be the best thing I’ve heard all week. Apparrently Jenniver Love Hewitt and Betty White are best friends and like to drink together.
I don’t know who I have the bigger crush on right now.


Bonus Scoopage:
Tom Brady made a video roasting all the critics who tried to blow taps over his career this season.
