  1. Speaking of #StephenColbert , that was the rabbithole I went down right after emerging from the #JimVarney #ErnestPWorrell rabbithole.

    I posted months earlier that with all the repeats on #HBO of the #LordOfTheRings franchise movies, that I had caught up on all of them--well, TIL that Colbert was in #TheDesolationOfSmaug ...and that's not all. It appears his family were ALL Laketown Spies, not just him (his wife is credited as Evelyn McGee). Then I encountered a #HollywoodReporter article about what Colbert might do next, and they missed the HBO option completely.

    No, not as a movie actor but as competition for #BillMaher who could do with Colbert-level competition. The article cited #ConanOBrien who was doing a travel log sort of thing for HBO, so yeah--I can picture Colbert on HBO. The Hollywood Reporter completely missed THAT boat.

  2. So, Jim Varney, who played Ernest P. Worrell, had a wonderfully expressive face. There was a series of photos floating around, showing him making expressions, and someone said, hey, those would make great emojis! And I made a mental note...

    Anyway, here you go:
