    (II) What's on the Telly?

    Rules: *Aired in the context of this pool, means TV/Streaming* A. You must pick 3 cast members for submission, with 2 subs. - If a cast member + sub dies before game start, I will allow a replacement B. Any person selected must have a IMDB or English Wikipedia page created by the time of game start. C. Any TV Show selected must have at least 10 half-hour episodes or 5 full hour episodes created from start to finish (that aired*). D. Franchise TV Show's will be considered separate. For example, Star Trek TNG vs D9. E. The cast of your show must have at least 5 living verified members by your submission. - If a cast member dies before game start, knowingly or not, thus bringing the number below 5. An exception will be made. F. Whoever's picks die first, wins! G. The cast member selected must appear in at least two separate episodes in the show (that aired*)! H. A plan for a tie-breaker is in place, it involves the overall age of the 3 cast members selected. Whoever has the youngest average age, wins. I. You MUST submit your team/show via PM, otherwise your submission is not counted J. If 2 people submit the same trio of names, but for different shows, I will honor the first person who submits it - The other person will be required to use their sub, but I will allow them to choose who to swap out. K. A QO will be very lax this game, I'll accept nearly anything. L. All shows used in the previous round are out of bounds (though could be reintroduced in the subsequent round). Winning shows will go into the Hall of Fame and are out of bounds in perpetuity. A show is not out of bounds if two or more players selected it in the previous round, thus eliminating it from said round. Genres of shows not allowed: Sports, Infomercials, or News Shows. My Twist! As this website has brought some of the most informed deadpoolers around, I want to make it a bit harder. If any user picks a show, which is then picked by another, that show is eliminated from the game. Essentially this means you take a risk in submission, as any show you pick could be scrapped if someone else is likeminded. It also means it would be wise to have a back-up! Do you take a risk in picking a popular show, thinking others will be scared? Do you pick something unique knowing you have no competition on it?

    Love this 'movie'. Seeing it in color makes it 10x better. Not sure what they used for all the joints, but the smoke never seems to be the same color.

    Does he really not have a Wiki page? Plenty of people with smaller resumes do...

    2. Dick Van Dyke

    I disagree. DvD doesn't strike me as the type to bow out willingly. Given his recent frail appearance at an award ceremony a week ago... Could be nothing, but I'm starting to think he might be a hit before J. Carter or N. Chomsky. ((Jinx?))

    Been To Any Good Gigs Lately?

    Not a fan of the new singer. They should have just made a new band similar to Nirvana's situation.

    Donald J Trump

    I hesitate to comment on things like this since I've been wrong in the past. That being said, while he wasn't as strong as his debate in July, I thought it was a pretty typical Trump appearance. I didn't notice anything particularly interesting, especially compared to Joe Biden in July.

    James Earl Jones

    RIP. Great actor who excelled in any role.

    Donald J Trump

    I would disagree. His position on Marijuana, as with most things, is not so easily defined.

    Hollywood Possibilities

    (Wiki) Kathy Bates announces her retirement from acting. She frames it as wanting to enjoy her hard earned wealth/time left, but I'd keep an eye on her. The full interview/announcement is NYT paywalled.

    2. Dick Van Dyke

    Made an appearance at the 2024 Creative Arts Emmy Awards on September 7th, which is referenced in this article. A video inside the article shows him answering questions from reporters. He mentions that he is still looking for work, but I would note that he sounds/looks a bit frailer than recent appearances. Speaks a bit on his life and what he wants to be remembered for.

    (Wiki) Walt Ehmer, the President and CEO of Waffle House since 2012, died today at age 58 from a "long illness". Rumors say it was pancreatic cancer.

    Thoughts On The 2024 List

    100%. It's amusing reading this thread from the beginning. Many thoughts and hopes that did not come to fruition.

    (C)Rappers

    A lot of social media rumors that American rapper Rich Homie Quan has died at 34. Reportedly from an OD. Well known in the US. Especially in colleges/bars, has some popular songs.

    Bill Clinton

    No matter how you view Trump or his policies, this is a batshit statement. Being the president of the United States is one of the most stressful jobs imaginable. While he golfed and browsed twitter often, there isn't a day where you aren't the President. It is a 24/7 job always on-call with an immense amount of pressure and responsibility.

    As someone who hasn't studied planetary science for 5 years, I can also confidently say they are a dumbass

    Edward Kennedy/Curse of the Kennedys

    He may be crazy, but he isn't wrong about some of the issues in this country. The speech he gave today made a LOT of good points.
