Tiny Finch Joins NBC’s ‘Today’ as Weather Bird
In what industry insiders are calling a completely unexpected move, NBC has hired a tiny finch with little on-air experience to handle weather updates for the third hour of Today each morning. Prior to landing this national gig, the finch was a weather analyst for NBC 5 in Dallas-Forth Worth, TX and a production assistant at a CBS affiliate in Oklahoma City, OK.
“I’m shocked,” said Tom Anders, a writer for Variety. "With so many talented on-air meteorologists to pull from at both the Weather Channel and NBC’s vast affiliate network, to hire a completely untested finch is completely baffling. Still, I wish him the best.“

Hamster Emerges From Bomb Shelter Unscathed
Some might call Padme the hamster paranoid. Others think she’s just cautious.
“When she built a bomb shelter out of a peanut tin last fall, the neighbors were a little concerned,” says Katherine Marsala, a local resident. “There were no attacks, of course. But these days, you can never be too safe.”

Coppola Reboot ‘Catpocalypse Now’ Is a Go, Says Studio
Francis Ford Coppola’s dark, wartime opus Apocalypse Now is considered a masterpiece by some. But many feel it lacks one important element: cats.
That’s why, after 33 years, Zoetrope Studios has finally green lit a reboot that will make this iconic Vietnam War story more accesible to the Internet generation.
“The original film is great, if you like that sort of thing,” says Connor Kidman, who was tapped by Zoetrope to direct the remake. “But it’s very grim, very dirty. There’s not a lot of cuteness or cuddly scenes, you know? We want to bring that to the fore by casting cats in every role.”
Legendary feline actor Mittens has already signed on to play Benjamin Willard, the role originated by Martin Sheen.
“Mittens is a fantastic talent,” says Kidman. “He makes the tension palpable while still bringing the cute. Not every actor can deliver on that.”
