The Kansas City Chiefs new post-season promotional trailer spoofs Hallmark rom-coms — but it sneaks in multiple references to the Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce romance.
The trailer, called “Falling for Football,” follows a football fan (Hallmark leading man Tyler Hynes) who meets cute with fellow Hallmark mainstay Janel Parrish.
The set-up follows a typical rom-com plot. Parrish, having been left at the altar by a football-loving fiance, has grown to hate the sport. But she falls for a guy who works in a Chiefs merchandise shop, a job he initially keeps secret, until the big reveal. “You’re not just a fan, it’s your livelihood!” she cries, giving Hynes an ultimatum. “It’s the Chiefs or me!” she demands. “I hate football!”
But thanks to some wise advise from Donna Kelce (the mom of a certain Chiefs tight end who dates a pop superstar), Parrish comes around and finds love with Hynes.

Lone Star, “Pilot”
Written by Kyle Killen
Directed by Marc Webb
Aired September 20th, 2010 on Fox
Before everyone got to know James Wolk as the intriguing Bob Benson of Mad Men, he was the lead of the short-lived Fox series Lone Star. Notoriously short-lived, in fact- the series was cancelled after only two episodes, despite receiving rave reviews from critics. Lone Star was created by the then untested Kyle Killen, whose script for The Beaver was admired around Hollywood but, at that time, had yet to be produced. Along with Wolk, the series starred Adrianne Palicki, Eloise Mumford, David Keith, and Jon Voight, along with a supporting ensemble. The reason Lone Star failed to reach an audience, however, had little to do with its cast or creator, and certainly not its quality; it was a victim of terrible timing. With the Us still reeling from the financial crisis of 2008, no...

After wowing festival audiences in 2008, Cook County finally gets a theatrical release. This dark morality tale of backwoods meth-heads explores how cooking and smoking crack destroys entire communities. Don't let the release date fool you - festive family fare this ain't.
Debut writer/director David Pomes doesn't pull any punches when it comes to depicting the grim reality of his characters' existence. Three generations live crammed into a dilapidated cabin, and everyone is exposed to the harmful effects of the meth that's the only substance ever cooked in the broken kitchen. Bump (Anson Mount) rules this ramshackle roost, dictating every aspect of the ebb and flow of crystals through the house, from ordering supply runs to the local general store (where the owner sells cold-remedies and drain cleaner to...

Anson Mount is currently heading up the Western drama Hell On Wheels, but a different AMC series inevitably comes to mind when watching Mount in Cook County, David Pomes’ directorial debut. Mount plays a psychotic mess of a man overseeing a crumbling East Texas house populated by his teenage nephew (Ryan Donowho), his 6-year-old daughter (Makenna Fitzsimmons), his aging father (Tommy Townsend), a pile of hangers-on, and a meth lab that tends to catch fire when whoever’s using it gets distracted. Since everyone’s high all the time, that happens often. With his neck tattoo, wild eyes, scruff of ...
