You may remember Durning from "Tootsie" and "The Best Little Wh******se in Texas." http://gbpg.net/TilKom

Charles Durning grew up in poverty, lost five of his nine siblings to disease, barely lived through D-Day and was taken prisoner at the Battle of the Bulge.

So long ago I don't remember when, the Wallflowers were the hottest band around. Now Jakob Dylan and crew are recharged, returning with a new album and tour. They'll be at the Meyer on Tuesday night.

After a seven-year break, The Wallflowers are back. For the record, that's a break, not a breakup. The rock band fronted by Jakob Dylan merely took a breather from a career that started in 1989 in Los Angeles and includes two Grammys for 1996's “Bringing Down the Horse.' They'll be playing the Mey...

If you like Ron Swanson on NBC's 'Parks and Recreation,' then you'll like Nick Offerman, the actor who plays him.

Can "Modern Family" make it a three-peat, or is this "Big Bang Theory's" year? (Seeing as how "Parks and Recreation" wasn't even nominated, we don't really care.)

Behold the sad irony of the Emmy Awards telecast: It is designed to celebrate extraordinary TV shows, but it usually turns out to be dreadful, soul-killing television itself. The good news this year is there’s an intriguing mix of exciting newcomers and established powerhouses among the nominees. ...

Jakob Dylan and the Wallflowers will be bringing down the horse -- er, house -- at the Meyer Theatre for an Oct. 30th concert. (BTW, when's the last time you listened to that album? It's really held up nicely.)

There's a Dylan on the way. The Wallflowers, the rock band fronted by Jakob Dylan, will play Oct. 30 at the Meyer Theatre in Green Bay as part of a fall tour in support of the group's forthcoming album.

It's Thomas Rozwadowski's last day here, and we're sending him off the only way we know how: With a pop culture top 10 list. At least he's leaving on his own terms like Johnny Carson, and not like Chef from "South Park" ...

Our entertainment editor Kendra Meinert asked Santa -- yes, Santa -- for a Green Day visit way back in 2004. Looks like the jolly fat man FINALLY got around to rewarding all those good little American idiots in Green Bay.

Fan of the TLC show "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo"? You better redneckognize not everyone's happy with how the Southern family is being portrayed.

The reality show 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' has been a ratings winner in recent weeks, capitalizing on redneck stereotypes and the oversized personality of a 6-year-old beauty pageant regular. But some who live nearby are concerned about the way their quiet pocket of central Georgia is being portr...
