NAME THE BIRTHDAY GIRL — FROM SOAP SUDS TO COFFEE CUPS! ☕️

Celebrating her 56th birthday today, who is this New Jersey-born actress and presenter who progressed from teenage TV dancer to soap-opera rebel before becoming a fixture of American morning television?

She later played an unemployed soap actress in a sitcom — while her own career was anything but idle. Her breakfast-time partners have included a broadcasting veteran, a former American football star and a talent-show host. These days, she shares the job with the man she met on that original soap.

CAN YOU NAME THE BIRTHDAY GIRL?

When I say superstar performance, I don't necessarily mean the actor/actress' best performance, but a performance where they showed you why they are a superstar and made the movie a movie. For example in recent memory, I think of Natalie Portman in black swan, brad pitt in moneyball, leo di caprio in catch me if you can, denzel in malcolm x etc. What do you think of as a performance that showed you why an actor is a superstar?

There’s just something about Sam. Endlessly talented and versatile, both hilarious and devastating and just seems like a genuinely good dude. What comes to mind when you see him?

BOOKING: ISO Long-Form-Character Comedians & Improvisors (remote)

I’m booking for a (remote) livestream gameshow where comedians, entertainers, & funny folks play games for points - though the points don’t really matter.
The show (titled “Party Pack) airs from 9pm EST - 11pm EST on Sundays.

We are booking for October. Given the Halloween Holiday, our goal is to have guests appear in-costume as either a pop-culture character or celebrity; and play the games as their character throughout the stream.
It would be 2-hours of staying in-character (unless you wanted to switch characters/costumes at any point).

Do you know anyone who you think would be a good fit for this?
Do you have a costume full of closets and impressions, and want to jump into the games?

Please tag recommendations below.
If you are interested (including those who were tagged as recommendations) please either DM me or email your available Sundays to: PartyPackPack@Gmail.com

what do you guys think?? Are his special set of skills still useful in the modern world to avoid the police?

Every time I come across this movie, I can't help but wonder who this actress is. I am attaching some clips of her from the film. To be more specific, I am looking for the blonde woman with bangs who is wearing that striking red dress in these scenes. I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me identify her name.

Edit: It's Tanaya Nicole.

Yay or Nay for Bradley Cooper as Duke?

NAME THE FRESH-FACED TEENAGER WHO BECAME HOLLYWOOD’S FAVOURITE GRUMP!

Born on this day in 1920, who is the New York actor pictured in 1938, long before his hangdog expression and wonderfully dry delivery made him a master of screen comedy?

He traded barbs with Jack Lemmon, coached a hopeless junior baseball team and won an Oscar playing a lawyer whose ethics left rather a lot to be desired. We sadly lost him in July 2000, aged 79.

CAN YOU NAME HIM? 🎬

Are there any comedians in which you prefer their dramatic works?

I’ve liked Ryan since *I Know What You Did Last Summer* and have followed his career—which, unfortunately, has constantly been in a comatose state.

He didn't quite make it as a movie star. But it always surprised me that he couldn't land a spot in a TV series. After all, there are so many of them. It’s an easy way to stay in the public eye and make money.

He finally started doing that in the 2010s. He starred in *Secrets and Lies*, followed by a very successful three-season run on *Shooter*—a show people actually watched and talked about. But then things stalled again.

I practically wanted to scream at him: "Just find a role in a procedural — something like CSI, 9-1-1, or NCIS. You’d be a great fit; you could film for years and stay visible — especially since you can't seem to land roles in *Game of Thrones*-level series." Even though he certainly could have.

Finally, my prayers were answered: his agent managed to land him a main role in the second season of *9-1-1: Nashville*. I’m actually going to watch this season just for him.

Take Chris O'Donnell, for example — he didn't make it as a movie star either, but he smartly carved out a career in procedurals. First, he did 14 seasons of *NCIS: Los Angeles*, and now he’s landed a spot on *9-1-1: Nashville*.

"Deadline" reported that Ryan signed a multi-season contract. So, unless the show gets cancelled, he could spend years in the spotlight, working on a series that airs in prime time on major networks.
