Though the Clinton Street Theater was forced to close its doors in March 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions, its 43-year Rocky Horror Picture Show streak has continued apace.
20th Century Studios has released the first trailer for their upcoming supernatural horror movie The Empty Man, which will open in theaters [checks calendar] in seven days. The film follows the disappearance of a group of teens, which is being investigated by a retired cop (James Badge Dale). The weirdest thing about this is that in normal times, this would be a perfectly sensible, low-budget horror movie play during spooky season. It may not blow up the box office, but it would do respectable business given its low budget. But for some reason, Disney thought it looked so bad …
The spread of the coronavirus has hit the entertainment business like a bomb, closing theaters and halting productions worldwide. But there is also no form of entertainment more attached to the "show must go on" mantra than professional wrestling, that traveling circus of tights and testosterone that kept on trucking through 9/11, Jerry Lawler's on-air heart attack, and the actual in-ring death of Owen Hart in 1999.

Thanks to the Internet and live-stream technology, zoos and aquariums around the world have opened up their vacant attractions …

The show was notorious for its way of shaking up the game in every episode, but the final twist that one of the finalists could take home the whole $250,000 prize, leaving a partner emptyhanded, was the most shocking of all. The winner really smashed the relationship to pieces in the two-hour season 1 finale.
