I saw the headline on People Magazine, “See Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny Reunite on the X-Files Set,” and I squeed a little. Then I braced myself for the possibility that none of our photo agencies would have the pics, but I was wrong they do – and holy sh*t, there’s Joel McHale! If you add Joel McHale to any production, however terrible, I will watch it.

We heard last week that McHale would be joining the X-Files reboot and actually seeing him on set is incredible. Variety reports that he’s playing “Tad O’Malley, a conservative news anchor who becomes an unlikely ally for Fox Mulder.” I’ll take it. It makes sense too, because some of those conservative talking heads are huge conspiracy theorists. Look at how badass McHale is in his suit and glasses. These pics were taken on set in Vancouver yesterday.

Here’s a photo of McHale cracking up Anderson and Duchovny. It looks like they’re not even filming at this point and that he’s just making witty observations.

Moving on, here’s Duchovny going in to kiss Anderson on the cheek. Maybe they’re filming but he looks like a creeper here. She’s trying to move away from him.

In terms of the costuming, People drops a minor spoiler by pointing out that Duchovny “is noticeably not dressed for official FBI work, which could indicate that his character, Fox Mulder, may not have rejoined the bureau in these new episodes.” People may actually be reporting a tip here instead of just jumping to conclusions, but we’ll have to wait and see if more information comes out.

On a superficial note, I love Anderson’s hair here. They gave her strawberry blonde color in a more modern style. Do you remember her deep red helmet hair? I had hair just like that in the mid 90s and it was no coincidence.

The X-Files is scheduled to return for six new episodes in January, 2016. Here’s Anderson with showrunner Chris Carter.

I feel like I’m hallucinating. Did you guys know that Sean Avery (former NY Ranger, now retired from hockey) is engaged to Hilary Rhoda? I feel like I heard that a while back and I dismissed it because I really and truly believed Avery was and is a gay man. I wasn’t hallucinating about that – there were widespread reports back in 2013 (especially) that Avery was gay, engaged to a man and about to come out publicly. The specificity of those rumors and stories led me to believe that sure, he was probably gay and good for him. But I guess he’s not? And he’s engaged to a human woman, model Hilary Rhoda. And they posed for Hamptons magazine cover editorial and story that is so awkward, even Tom Cruise is cringing in his lifts. The reason for their Hamptons cover? Their wedding will be in the Hamptons. Some highlights from the interview:

Avery on being called an “attractive couple”: “That means we’re going to have ugly babies. We’re cursed.”

Rhoda on whether they want babies: “Yes, of course.”

Rhoda on their wedding plans: “We’re just getting it together now after a year and a half of being engaged. We’re just starting to meet with wedding planners and figure out where we’re going to do it, but we’re aiming for the fall. We are getting married in the Hamptons.”

Avery is a groomzilla? “At this point, I don’t necessarily think we need a wedding planner. I could set this wedding up in the next couple of weeks, and everything would run smoothly. I have it conceptualized in my head, and we’ve discussed what we want to do. We’re going to have an amazing weekend—all of our friends are going to be here, and no matter what happens, it’s going to be fun and beautiful.

Rhoda on fitness: “When we started dating, he was taking me to SoulCycle, and I started to work out a lot more because he’s a professional athlete; he has to do that for his job, so I got into that mentality about my job, too. We both work out every single day.

There’s a lot of couple-stuff in the piece too and for what it’s worth, they do seem to have a pretty strong partnership. Like, their lives are already pretty blended together and they seem to finish each other’s thoughts. There’s also some interesting stuff about how they’re in the house-flipping business now – they’re buying mid-range Hamptons houses and fixing them up and selling them for a profit. They aren’t doing mega-mansions or McMansions though, which is nice.

I only just realized that Entourage: The Movie had already been released domestically (last week) and we still hadn’t written one word about it. That’s weird, right? I mean, lots of sites were doing “think pieces” about Entourage and whether anyone really cared about these guys anymore, but no one around here could even work up the energy to say a few words. So here are some photos from last night’s London premiere – I’m including photos of Adrian Grenier, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Jeremy Piven, Jerry Ferrara, Kevin Connolly and Kevin Dillon.

So how did Entourage: The Movie do in its first few days with the domestic box office? Not great. It opened last Wednesday and the film came in fourth place at the weekend box office with $10.4 million, following Spy at #1 (which is a great action-comedy), Insidious: Chapter 3 and San Andreas (at #3). So… that’s why the whole crew came out in London. They’re hoping the Europeans will enjoy cheeseball bros.

So why was Entourage: The Movie even made? Who thought it would be a good idea? Did Jeremy Piven need a new Lambo or something? Well, the Daily Beast ran what I thought was a good analysis of why Entourage: The Movie was met with a resounding yawn. It’s not even like people have a full-fledged hate-on for the film, it just seems boring and silly and a waste of time and energy. The DB theorizes that we can’t even complain about the misogyny of such bro-centered stories because in the world of Entourage, everyone is a vapid douchebag, man and woman. So… who’s buying this? Does anyone even care?

The first trailer for Mockingjay 2 just dropped. And Katniss isn’t avoiding anymore. Katniss is coming for the Capitol. And she brought her friends. Here’s one of them:
