Comedy writer @Keatonpatti tweeted the first page of a supposed "bot written" script of Guy Fieri's famous show.

Defamer reported on an interview Laura Prepon did with the Scientology magazine Celebrity July 8 and boy did it just erase all the goodwill we had for the Orange is the New Black actor.
We thought we'd save you the trouble of reading the whole thing and present these looney collection of words in a more attractive way.

It was only a few weeks ago when we learned about the break up between Kermit the Frog and Ms. Piggy.
It turns out that split had been happening for quite some time and they only just recently made it public.
If this is news to you, then you'd better sit down as you read Ms. Piggy's announcement on Facebook. It's the same that Kermit circulated around Twitter.
Also, never forget that these are not real people and this is all shameless marketing for the upcoming Muppets tv show on ABC.
But there's no reason to be cynical, so play along if you'd like.

Flavorwire, along with many other outlets, is reporting the return of Xena: Warrior Princess
From 1995-2001, the show about an eponymous warrior princess out to redeem her past sins charmed many with it's campy sensibilities and striking lead actress, Lucy Lawless. Well, NBC wants to see if the magic is still there.

You should know that the reboot is in it's infancy.
It's so early in the project's development, in fact, that the "modern reboot" is still searching for a writer.

This show would join the large roster of 1990s television shows that are suddenly hurdling back at us, from Full House to next January's X Files miniseries.
But just think, we could here this fearsome battle cry again before too much longer.
