It is impossible to imagine The X-Files without Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. The recent comic book “Season Ten” returns to the classic Mulder and Scully dynamic. Both movies have centred around the characters. Gillian Anderson was in the primary cast for all nine seasons. After all, David Duchovny was a regular for seven years of the show, making a few appearances across the final seasons. It is very hard to talk about The X-Files without talking about the relationship between Mulder and Scully. This November (and a little of December), we’re taking a trip back in time to review the third season of The X-Files and the first (and only) season of Space: Above and Beyond.

As they began to map out the fourth season, the writers-who have become famous for balancing the absurd (think leprechauns, banshees, killer clowns ) with classic adolescent angst-found an opening to flesh out Jed’s backstory. In addition to discussing the romantic potential of Josie and Finch (Courtney Bandeko), Bryant informed Peterson that Ben Levin, who plays Jed Tien, had expressed his willingness to play a queer character in an homage to several members of his family who are part of the LGBTQ+ community. In the show’s third season, Price Peterson-a former recapper of The Vampire Diaries and current television writer who had recently joined Legacies -was helping to oversee the production of his first episode when he struck up a conversation with Kaylee Bryant, who played Josie Saltzman (and who left the series last December ). But instead of simply checking another box for network television, they wanted to wait for the right story to present itself. When executive producers Julie Plec and Brett Matthews set out to expand the Vampire Diaries universe with Legacies, the second spinoff of the long-running CW supernatural drama, they knew they wanted to depict a same-sex romance between two male characters at the Salvatore Boarding School for the Young & Gifted. Zane Phillips as Ben (l) and Ben Levin as Jed Not least, the 659-page Bonfire reminded readers of the awe-inspiring scale on which a novel could operate-the rich specificity it could convey, the gritty candor it could achieve, the sheer excitement it could generate. It offered a tense, gripping page-turner of a story it had a colorful, well-nigh Dickensian cast of characters and it portrayed these people’s duplicities, hypocrisies, and superficial values with wit and precision, pulling back a curtain on the complex political workings and unwritten social codes of the metropolis that was, at the time, the planet’s economic engine. Set in what Wolfe, in its opening pages, described as the “greatest city of the 20th century,” it took readers on a lively, fast-moving tour of New York City at its highest and lowest-from Wall Street brokerages, Park Avenue penthouses, and posh Manhattan bistros to the grungiest Bronx slums, courtrooms, and jails. 1 New York Times bestseller for eight weeks. To say that it was a once-in-a-decade success may be an understatement. T was 30 years ago that Tom Wolfe published his first novel, The Bonfire of the Vanities. It’s hard enough to be here for a week at a time. And the materialism - that overwhelming sense of what you look like being the most important thing, I think that would be really difficult to live with every day. There are a lot of plastics, even kids getting plastic surgery. No offense to the people that do, but I can’t imagine raising kids in this town. Do you ever think you should move to Los Angeles and work full-time in Hollywood?Ī: I would never come and live here. Q: You live in Arizona, just north of Phoenix. All our opinions were valued by each of us. I was going over the (script) notes with Andrew and the actors would come to me and say, ‘What do you think?’ It was a nice group. With “The Host,” from the very beginning (producer) Nick Wechsler came to me and said, ‘Let’s do this together.’ And he meant it. A: After “Twilight” did really well, I think my opinion had more weight. This illuminates a fundamental principle of money-it exists to facilitate exchange, but it is not valuable in and of itself. When the people complain to King Barf that they are poor and hungry, he dismisses their concerns because the kingdom has so much gold, so it must be rich. Yet, his people are suffering a famine due to crop failure. In the story, the giant King, King Barf, covets gold above all else he equates his massive gold stock with a rich kingdom. It was a fun adventure tale, but couched within it are great lessons for kids regarding worth, value, and the nature of money. I read this to a group of 2nd-5th graders for the Read Aloud organization. Jack: The True Story of Jack and the Beanstalk by Liesl Shurtliff There was a deadly silence when certain wrestlers entered the ring, while for some, like Bruno Sammartino, without a note of blaring music or hint of pyro, the barrel-chested powerhouse walked down the aisle in a plain pair of tights, and the building erupted in sheer joy, excitement, and pandemonium.Įntrance music didn’t become a mainstay in pro wrestling until the late 1980s and early 1990s. But did you know that this wasn’t always the case?įrom the origins of entrance music in the early 1900s to its modern-day evolution, dive into the rich history of wrestling music and uncover the secrets behind some of the most iconic tunes in the business! The Untold Story of Pro Wrestling’s Earliest Use of Entrance Theme Musicįor most of the early history of professional wrestling, wrestlers only had the sound of the crowd’s reaction to accompany them during their entrances. From Hulk Hogan’s patriotic “Real American” to the smell of what The Rock was cooking to the shattering of glass for “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and The Undertaker’s iconic gong, a professional wrestler’s entrance theme music makes them instantly identifiable and sets the tone for what’s to come. In this case, “happily ever after” means finishing their training and opening a dojo to teach their self-defense skills to others. Rather than risk his own skin, the wolf retreats and the pigs live happily after. Then, she threatens to do the same to him if he attacks. The wolf easily scares and chases the two pig brothers into the sister pig’s house, where she gives the aggressor an intimidating demonstration of her skills. Unlike her brothers, the third pig practices and masters karate before the Big Bad Wolf attacks her house. In The Three Ninja Pigs,the first pig studies Aikido, but he gets tired of drills and gives up, while the second pig practices jiu-jitsu and makes mistakes due to overconfidence. Two of the pigs are left helpless due to laziness and one pig is left victorious due to hard work, cleverness, and determination. In line with the original fairy tale, a big-bully wolf terrorizes three little pigs. This funny, action-packed story replaces the little pigs with ninja pigs who study three different martial art disciplines for self defense. Few recent retellings have been as successful and entertaining as The Three Ninja Pigs by Corey Rosen Schwartz. Retelling classic fairy tales in children’s books has been a trend for quite some time. |
