First off, yes, that is Amy Poehler at the premiere of Agatha All Along. Adam Scott was there, too, but I didn’t pick that picture. I’m sorry. Anyway, the latest Marvel series is being touted as a “gay explosion,” and awesome. Let’s do it. I just have one question: Are there lesbian witches, and do they go to space? That’s where the bar is at now. (Variety)

Prince William was basically ordered to wish his brother a Happy Birthday. (Celebitchy)

It’s pumpkin spice and be mean to Jill Stein season. (Wonkette)

From Chris: This week on Why Did We Watch This, we’re talking Love’s Labour’s Lost in our continuing re-appraisal of Kenneth Branagh’s work as a director. While I have a lot of affection for this movie and really enjoy its more theatrical elements, the movie is a bit of a what-not-to-do for filming a musical. Alicia Silverstone being wildly out of place, out-of-sync dance numbers, and wonky camera work are just some of the things we chat about as we dissect this fascinating lil style experiment. (Apple)

Oh damn, they denied Diddy bail. (Rolling Stone)

Today I learned, David Schwimmer turned down Will Smith’s role in Men In Black to do right by his theater group. (IndieWire)

Charlie Hunnam will play Ed Gein for Ryan Murphy. (Deadline)

Kathy Bates is not retiring? Your guess is as good as mine here. (The Wrap)

Joshua Jackson is apparently aging backward into Jack Quaid’s twin. (Page Six)

That rascally Aileen Cannon is at it again. (Daily Beast)

V. E. Schwab’s The Fragile Threads of Power felt more like a continuation of the Shades of Magic series than a new series, and Tracy is fine with that. “It feels both new and old at the same time, and Schwab has sown some interesting seeds in White London that could lead to excellent opportunities for all these different characters to intersect in new and ongoing ways.” Which fictional universes would you like to visit again?
