Q: I was just rewatching the miniseries "11.22.63," and I'm wondering who the actor is who played the diner owner. I know I've seen him in things.
It's not quite accurate to call Chris Cooper a character actor. Usually when you're watching something and say, "Hey, it's that guy," you've spotted a character actor -- a term reserved for actors who disappear into all sorts of different roles. They don't have a "type," they fill whatever hole needs filling.

Q: What is the "slop" that the "Big Brother" contestants have to eat?
Punishment and light humiliation have been a staple of reality TV from its earliest days. In a figurative sense, that's what "slop" is. But in the literal sense, it's just oatmeal and nutrient powder.
We know this because CBS actually released the recipe, in case fans wanted to get into the shoes of a struggling "Big Brother" resident.

Q: I've been binge-watching "Bones" lately and really enjoying it. What have the cast been doing since?
"Bones" had a lot of people come and go in its 12 years on the air, from 2005 to 2017. But when you're talking about the "the cast," I assume you're talking about leads Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz, plus full-time supports Michaela Conlin, T.J. Thyne and Tamara Taylor.
As for what they've been doing, the answer, for everyone but Boreanaz, is the usual one: Trying to find a new home for themselves after getting so comfortable in their old one.
