Weekend Open Thread

Good Morning.

I hope that you are enjoying this weekend with family and friends.
Since they announced a couple of weeks ago that the annual vaccines were available, please go and get your shots.

This week we lost legendary designer Bob Mackie.

Mackie was over the top. Glamorous. He was made for Hollywood.

But, one of his most brilliant ideas was a collaboration with Carol Burnett.

To this day, that skit is brilliant and hilarious because of Mackie’s design idea.

Farewell to costume designer Bob Mackie, a designer of spectacular gowns for great divas, but also the creator of perhaps the greatest costume sight gag in history.

Bob Mackie, always and forever, up to and including the fact that he was the set-up moment that brought us the perfect “Montecito” episode of Hacks.
