Netflixs The Baby-Sitters Club Shocked Fans of the Series – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Those who grew up reading The Baby-Sitters Club books will know they truly broke barriers in bringing real, serious issues to children’s lit. Started by Ann M. Martin, 213 books were written in the series over the years, with Martin writing just under half of them. A TV series adaptation of the books occurred in 1990 on HBO, something virtually forgotten today, then a 1995 movie. The former was produced by the Scholastic Corporation that published the original book series. Compared to HBO today, the original TV adaptation kept a modicum of taste for young teens while still delving into issues kid books never broached in years prior. Now with a revival of the series debuted on Netflix, things are basically the same, albeit with more drama. (L to R) Shay Rudolph a...

We'll see soon whether it caused more people to order WWE network and watch the match, which is the ultimate goal. On Sunday, Rollins defeated Mysterio when he used the corner of the ring...

The Swamp Fight between Braun Strowman and Bray Wyatt closed out The Horror Show at WWE Extreme Rules. Wyatt sat in a rocking chair as he watched Braun arrive in his vehicle.

Kanye West gets emotional on pro-life cause at freewheeling South Carolina event: No more Plan B. Plan A. – Fox News

Rapper Kanye West, in his first event since declaring himself a presidential candidate, delivered a freewheeling monologue Sunday touching on topics such as abortion, which left him emotional. "No more Plan B -- Plan A," he said to a mixed response from the audience about the emergency contraceptive that helps prevent pregnancy within 72 hours after unprotected sex. West said that while he believed abortion should be legal, financial incentives to help struggling mothers could be a way to discourage the practice. “Everybody that has a baby gets a million dollars,” he said as an example. Speaking without a microphone, West became tearful while talking about abortion, his mother, who died following plastic surgery complications in 2007, and his wife, reality television star Kim Kardash...
