American counterculture and literary idol, Kurt Vonnegut, died yesterday at the age of 84. He was in Manhattan, and his death was the result of brain injuries from a fall several weeks ago.
The Giants (2-1) look to rebound from last week’s beating when they play the Rams this Sunday at 1pm on FOX. The Rams while no longer “The Greatest Show on Turf” still posses a potent offense that will challenge a Giants defense that gave up 45 points and 485 yards to the Chargers last week. To make matters worse, cornerback, Will Peterson, has been ruled out for this game and may miss the rest of the season.

These days, reading a Hollywood trade is like seeing a TV Guide grid from the 80s - it's all about making movies from 80s TV shows. Today, Universal announced they are remaking Miami Vice, ideally with Colin Farrell and Jamie Fox as Crockett and Tubbs. Earlier this week, Stephen J. Cannell said he's going to go forward with the long-awaited A-Team movie! And Robert Luketic, best known as the director those canonical films, Legally Blonde and Win A Date With Tad Hamiltion, is going to direct the Dallas movie. There's already the Dukes of Hazzard movie in the works (Seann William Scott, Johnny Knoxville and Jessica Simpson), and there were rumors of a Dallas one. What's next? Remington Steele? Moonlighting? Murder, She Wrote? Magnum PI? Clearly, the cheesier and campier the show was, the more remake potential it has, so no Hill Street Blues or St. Elsewhere. But The Greatest American Hero - why not?
