ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel gave his yearly network roast today in his 12th upfronts appearance.

5th Update/writethru Sunday AM: Following Saturday and Friday posts, refresh for Sunday chart and more analysis. Why did three studios book new titles against Disney/Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame ‘s second weekend? They truly believed they were counter-programming the monster hit and could somehow survive: Lionsgate’s Long Shot with females, The Intruder with African Americans, and STXfilms’ foray into feature animation UglyDolls aimed at young girls.

UPDATE, 5:00 p.m .: After the uproar over the rebranding, Hasbro clarified that the Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head dolls will still be available under the gender -neutral Potato Head brand. They have also introduced a box set that includes multiple potatoes and accessories so kids can build a family of potatoes of any genders they want. *** Every once in a very great while, a brand does something that is not driven by the singlehanded and all-consuming pursuit of profit. On very rare occasions, they do something that could be perceived, by most reasonable people, as generally OK, or even good. Today, Hasbro did just that when the toy company announced it would be rebranding the iconic Mr. Potato Head toy (you know, the starchy vegetable that bears an uncanny resemblance to the former Oakland As pitcher Rollie Fingers) and his female counterpart as gender-neutral “Potato Heads.” The reasoning behind this change, a spokesperson for the brand said in an interview with Fast Company, was … [Read more...] about Mr. Potato Head Is Now Gender Neutral and Right-Wing Trolls Are Losing It
