POTD: Salut Salon
If this Picture Of The Day doesn’t put a smile on your face, please consult a physician. The group is Salut Salon.
POTD: Randy, Ted, and Lindsey
For the Picture Of The Day, Randy Rainbow strikes gold again with a video that serves as a reminder: Ted Cruz only likes Mexicans when they’re bringing him a frosty beverage poolside in Cancun.
POTD: George Segal
Long before he worked on sitcoms, George Segal (who died today at 87) was a movie star with a long list of credits. He and his banjo also made numerous TV appearances, including this one that’s my Picture Of The Day.
POTD: The Best
Here’s a piece of classic rock history I was unaware of until recently. It’s about what may have been the shortest-lived supergroup ever: The Best. Members included Joe Walsh, John Entwistle, Keith Emerson, and Jeff “Skunk” Baxter.
POTD: “America’s Sexiest Couple”
Looking for something to watch today? Here’s a one-act play by Ken Levine (“Cheers,” “Frasier,” “M*A*S*H”), with Joely Fisher and Tim Daly as stars of a 1990s sitcom who reunite after 25 years. Great performances — and funny, too!
POTD: Eric Idle
For the Picture Of The Day, here’s Eric Idle talking about some of his acting roles on screen. He not only touches on the highs (various Monty Python projects + “The Rutles”), but also the lows (“Casper” + “Nearly Departed”).
Best Thing I’ve Seen Today
For the Picture Of The Day, a quintet called Maytree replicates iPhone sound effects perfectly — and a medley of opening movie logo themes, too!
POTD: The Muppets Venture Outside
Picture Of The Day: As they prepared to make “The Muppet Movie” in 1979, Jim Henson and his team had never played their characters outside a studio. So they set up a camera test outdoors and ad libbed as their alter egos for several hysterical minutes.
