Fantastic.

That’s what they call me when I’m right about Oscar nominations.

I hit the ceiling. bsky.app/profile/nhlg...

Buffalo Sabres

I mean you can’t KNOW they’re not.

Ferrero Rochers in your candy dish? Well excuse me, Mr. Rockefeller

Also like… save the comms strategy talk for conference rooms and zoom calls, man. That’d be a great way to start speaking like a person.

14 years of life experience and the only thing I’ve learned is that I don’t need to have an opinion on Lena Dunham.

You just know someone at this Penguins-Flyers game is gonna end their evening at The Pitt.

Do you know which one Kim's dog bit, is the question.

While we're on the subject, where does Dorit's 2026 campaign rank among the great Asshole Seasons of Real Housewives? Just a stunning display of assholery that got stronger as the season progressed, and now she's peaking just in time for the playoffs. We may never see its like again.

Think of what used to live in that part of your brain.

I’ve decided to finally be honest with myself and admit that I have absolutely zero grasp on the subject of Kyle Richards’ daughters. How many? How old? Names? Fifteen years and zero progress made.

I’m really looking forward to it.

Also Wyatt Russell being a Sabres fan puts us all one degree of separation away from seeing Kate Hudson in a Rasmus Dahlin jersey, and on that day I will ascend.

Buffalo sports' unabashed embrace of hometown Goo Goo Dolls cheese will never not be charming to me.

This surge of Buffalo Sabres sentimentality is going to absolutely ruin me. youtu.be/tTyCUA6ShB0?...

This has all the trappings of humor while being the stone cold truth.

For episode 45, This Had Oscar Buzz co-host @joereid.bsky.social joins us to talk about the 2020 biopic Hillbilly Elegy. Brace yourself and tune in on 4/22!

“But Joe, surely this child hasn’t recently starred in a short film opposite Liam Neeson and the late Natasha Richardson’s son!”

Now here’s where you’re wrong, friend.

Barbara Stanwyck's Honorary Award: 1982 Oscars YouTube video by Oscars

The callback to this when Barbara Stanwyck won her honorary Oscar a few years later, after Holden had passed, is somehow just as good.

(That part’s at 2:20 but you’ll miss John Travolta being charmingly nervous if you jump ahead)

Sure does!

I’ve stared at the Lea Michelle Sardi’s drawing for cumulatively about six hours and I’ve landed on “if Idina had been cast as Arwen in The Lord of the Rings.”

A pregnant Catherine Zeta Jones poses with her Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for her performance in the 2002 film "Chicago."

Catherine Zeta Jones' Oscar baby is 23 years old now, in case you weren't already ready to pack it up and shove on off to sea.

A good primer.

Gratulerer!

(I used Google to translate congratulations into Norwegian so it may not be right.)
