Eugene Levy Says Dan Wrote a Schitt's Creek Episode to Get Back at Him, and It's So Savage

-

Dan Levy had a bone to pick with his father, Eugene Levy, while filming Schitt's Creek. Following the release of the behind-the-scenes book Best Wishes, Warmest Regards: The Story of Schitt's Creek filled with cast interviews, Eugene appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Oct. 28 and shared a funny story about a classic Schitt's Creek episode titled "The Drip." In the episode, Eugene's character, Johnny Rose, is slowly drenched overnight due to a leak in the ceiling. Eugene explained that he's "touchy" about his hair getting wet because it "takes a while to get my hair to look the way I think it should look." When he read the script, he recalled saying, "Ugh, Dan, really? It can't drip anywhere else except on my hair?"

Turns out, the episode was intentionally written by Dan to drive his dad crazy. Things only got worse when they shot the scenes and Dan kept telling everyone Eugene's hair needed to be wetter. "He got such a kick out of it, honestly. I got as much fun watching him watching me being as miserable as I was doing the scene, but it all worked for the scene," Eugene said. He also admitted he still hasn't figured out what he did to piss off Dan. In the end, Dan got his revenge and we got good TV. Check out "The Drip"'s scene below.

-

A 20-year-old astrophysics and economics student from New Haven, CT, Jack Atkins made quite the first impression in The Circle season two premiere. He tells viewers straight off, "I'm honestly down to go down as the biggest villain in Circle history. I don't really care." I mean, an intro package doesn't get much better than that. Kudos, Jack! Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

-

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
