Adam Scott shares nostalgic photo with Ike Barinholtz, aka Sal Saperstein, in hilarious nod to ‘The Studio'
Thank you, Sal Saperstein!
Adam Scott is getting in on the gag presented in Apple TV+'s comedy series 'The Studio.' Scott appeared as himself in a recent episode and during an award speech, he thanked his old friend Sal, VP of fictional Continental Studios. It started a hilarious trend of gratitude towards the character, played by Ike Barinholtz.
Scott shared a throwback photo of the pair of actors from back in the day to Instagram, with the caption 'Me & Sal. Circa 2001' on Friday.
In his cameo in the acclaimed comedy, Scott accepted a Golden Globe for a fictional project and thanked Sal, who he credited with helping him in the early days of his career by giving him a couch to sleep on.
The moment sends Sal's friend and boss Matt Remick – played by 'Studio' co-creator Seth Rogen – into a tailspin of jealousy, since he too wants to be thanked in a Golden Globe acceptance speech.
Barinholtz also posted the photo to Instagram, with Rogen commenting, 'Damn I can smell the couch from here.'
Many others also got in on the fun, with stars from Alison Brie to Chris Daughtry commenting with variations of, 'Thank you Sal Saperstein!'
'The Studio' is currently streaming on Apple TV+. The show has recently been renewed for a second season.

Proposal would provide more public transit options to Red Rocks and other area parks
DENVER (KDVR) — Getting to Red Rocks Amphitheatre and other parks in that area is not always easy. Under a new proposal, shuttles could be added to the public transportation mix, and those could be tested starting in August or September. Full list of concerts at Red Rocks in 2025 'The pilot will be a daytime pilot through the cities of Morrison and Golden, including Red Rocks,' said Denver City Council Member Darrell Watson. He says RTD's W line runs from Denver to Golden. Under the proposal, daytime shuttles would then be available to take people from there to Red Rocks, which is about three miles away, and to other parks in the area. The test run could happen over two weekends in August or September. Watson is working with Jefferson County Commissioner Andy Kerr and others to apply for a grant from RTD. 'That could provide up to $1,000,000 to make sure that this pilot that we are doing this summer, that we can actually extend that to the entire summer for 2026,' Watson said. The city council member hopes that this will lay the groundwork to expand the service to nighttime hours in order to accommodate concertgoers at Red Rocks. Free on Your TV • New FOX31+ App for Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV 'There are over a million concertgoers that go to Red Rocks every year, and most of those folks are driving from Denver,' he said. Public transportation, Watson said, could help address many issues. 'We believe it's a safety issue. We believe it's an environmental impact issue, and we see it as a great opportunity with the W line already going there,' he said. RTD says they will announce the latest round of grant recipients in August. The group is also looking for additional funding. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Weinstein jury deliberations scrutinize one accuser's account
NEW YORK (AP) — Jurors in Harvey Weinstein'ssex crimes retrial are drilling down on one of the three charges against him: a rape accusation from a woman who also said she had a consensual relationship with him. The seven female and five male jurors are poised to start their fifth day of deliberations Wednesday by re-hearing Jessica Mann's testimony that he raped her in a Manhattan hotel room in 2013. Mann's accusation was an apparent focus of Tuesday's deliberations, and the jury ended the day by asking to be re-read her testimony about what happened between her and Weinstein at the hotel. The group also indicated it wants to continue privately reviewing her emails with Weinstein and some 2017 medical records concerning her reaction to news accounts of other women's allegations against him. The former Hollywood powerbroker, 73, has pleaded not guilty to raping Mann and to forcing oral sex on two other women, Mimi Haley and Kaja Sokola. The Oscar-winning producer maintains that he never sexually assaulted or raped anyone, and his lawyers portrayed his accusers as opportunists who accepted his advances because they wanted a leg up in the entertainment world. While all three women stayed in contact with Weinstein despite what they say were assaults, Mann had a particularly complex history with him. During days on the witness stand, she testified that they had a consensual relationship that exploded into rape, yet continued afterward. Weinstein was one of the movie industry's most powerful figures until a series of sexual misconduct allegations against him became public in 2017, fueling the #MeToo movement and eventually leading to criminal charges. He originally was convicted in 2020 of raping Mann and forcing oral sex on Haley. Sokola's allegation was added last year, after New York state's highest court overturned the 2020 conviction and sent the case back for retrial. Meanwhile, Weinstein is appealing a 2022 rape conviction in Los Angeles. After a couple of days of apparent interpersonal friction, the retrial jury worked through Tuesday with no further complaints. The Associated Press generally does not identify people without their permission if they say they have been sexually assaulted. Sokola, Mann and Haley have agreed to be named.
