This purpose of this blog is to put together a virtual list/collection of memorable (if fleeting) references to the cities of Wilkes-Barre, PA or Scranton, PA in movies/TV/music/Broadway/books (in the script, setting, lyrics, etc). We'd like to thank everyone for the overwhelming support and suggestions for the Entertainment blog. I'll continue adding these as blog entries as time permits.

Weekender Article: "All Over The Map" by Michael Lello & Nikki M. Mascali
Check out this week's Cover Story of The Weekender. It's an excellent article by Weekender Staff Writers Michael Lello and Nikki M. Mascali titled "Famous Faces: From John Legend to Jack Palance, Celebrities Have Ties To NEPA." The article features not only famous locals in entertainment previously profiled in our blog (like John Legend, Lauren Weisberger, Jerry Orbach and Michael Schoeffling), but it also features locals from a variety of fields and professions---from politics (Joe Biden) to sports (Joe Madden and Joe Collins) to good old-fashioned pornography (Nicole Sheriden).
The article is available in this week's edition of The Weekender (February 10th, 2010), as well as on The Weekender's website. To read the article online, click here.
Also, a little birdie told me that our Entertainment blog was used for some of the notables featured in the article---(blushing).
