One of the most beloved Hollywood stars in the history of television, in particular, was actress Frances Bavier, who died in 1989 at age 85. The likable actress became best known for her compassionate and nurturing role as Aunt Bee on The Andy Griffith Show (CBS, 1960-1968).

Kroger sued the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) on Monday, pushing back on the government’s authority to stop its mergers with Albertsons (ACI).

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

I guess that's how you know you're doing something right.

Of course, Willie Nelson has been rocking his iconic braids for decades now, and he first started wearing the style around 1972, after he left the Nashville scene and went down to Austin, Texas. He was very clean cut early in his career, though now seeing old pictures and videos of him like that are barely recognizable.

In an interview with Larry King over a decade ago, a fan asked why he kept the braids for so long and made them such an inseparable part of his legendary brand, to which he...

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m sure you’ll be aware that multi-million-dollar cars require eye-watering amounts of money just for simple maintenance and servicing, especially if it’s a Bugatti. Over the years, we’ve had many Bugatti owners tell us how insanely expensive it is to own a hypercar. While a 27-year-old recently claimed that his $4 million Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport Carbon goes a mere 62 miles on a full tank of fuel, renowned entrepreneur and influencer Manny Khoshbin has given a detailed account of the ownership cost of his Veyron in the past. He claimed that all fluids have to be changed each year, and that costs a whopping $25,000.

The owner of a $1.7 million Bugatti Veyron was shocked when the official service center quoted him $12,000 to replace a faulty door mirror switch. The clever owner took it to a supercar specialist who swapped it with an identical part from a Volkswagen van, which cost just $1.

How the Pebble Beach Concours judges could possibly come to a decision about which of the dozens upon dozens of amazing vehicles nesting on the green is Best of Show is a mystery we won't attempt to unravel. They are experts with a depth of knowledge that permits them to say things like, "That air cleaner shouldn't be shiny; originally it was semigloss black." (Yes, we overheard that at a concours once.) We are not them, nor could the C/D editors who've been walking the show all day possibly agree on a single car that tops them all. It's like trying to decide between Häagen-Dazs and caviar. Rather than attempt that and risk a breakdown of staff esprit de corps, each of our editors present at Monterey Car Week has provided the unexpurgated sales pitch for the car they would anoint Best of Show at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance 2024.
