The Scoop for March 19, 2019

Vanna White has been a staple on our TV’s since 1982, but Wheel of Fortune wasn’t her first game show. Nope. She was first a contestant on The Price is Right. But I don’t think Bob Barker was near as impressed with her as Pat Sajak.
I guess looking at a monitor is the one qualification you need to flip the letters on Wheel of Fortune.


Colin Farrell is in the new live action Dumbo movie, which is clearly a kids movie. But Colin has been known to have a bit of a mouth on him. So the cast went old school to try and curb their language in front of the kids. They had a curse jar. And according to Colin, it was pretty full, but not just because of him. Well of course not. With Danny DeVito in the cast, I’m guessing it was more of a Swear Bucket than a Swear Jar.


Hollywood is piling up reboots faster than they can cancel shows in the first place. But there could always be one more, like say Saved By The Bell. But, Paul-Mark Gosselaar, better known as Zack Morris, says he’s not sold on a Saved By The Bell Reboot. Paul says, he’s oke with, quote, ” …never seeing a reboot ever again.”
Good for you Zack. Good for you. And if that makes you sad, you know, you can watch Saved By The Bell anytime you want right? You don’t need to reboot it. Just stream it, or rent it.
