In the past week, two women have publicly accused Dustin Hoffman of sexual harassment, allegations which have renewed interest in Meryl Streep’s nearly-four-decade-old claim that her “Kramer vs. Kramer” co-star introduced himself by grabbing her breast. Slate tracked down a Time article from 1979 — the year the film came out — in which Streep recalls auditioning for a play Hoffman was directing. “He came up to me and said, ‘I’m Dustin — burp — Hoffman,’ and he put his hand on my breast,” the actress told Time. “What an obnoxious pig, I thought.”

Per Jeff Lenburg’s 2001 book “Dustin Hoffman: Hollywood’s Antihero,” the play was “All Over Town,” which debuted on Broadway in late 1974, when Streep was 25. Later that decade, the actors notoriously battled on Robert Benson’s “Kramer vs. Kramer” set, where they played divorcing parents.

Before I begin, let’s get one thing straight: A Deadly Adoption, Lifetime’s Will Ferrell–Kristen Wiig thriller about a surrogacy gone horribly wrong, is a damn masterpiece.
PhotosBest & Worst TV Dad Moments of 2015 from Jane, Once, Thrones and More
In spite of its cast, the movie isn’t necessarily as funny as some might expect it to be. Sure, Will and Ferrell’s dead-pan performances yield a generous serving of laugh-out-loud moments, but only in the same way that all Lifetime movies are unintentionally hysterical — unless I’m the only one who still remembers Liz & Dick around here.

For me, every San Diego Comic-Con I attend brings with it a different agenda -- be it covering panels and events for Entertainment Weekly, flacking my second career as a comic book writer, or generally serving as an EW ambassador to all things geek -- but they all involve meeting people. And that's my favorite part of Comic-Con; not the first looks at the coming hotness, or the free booze, it's the people. So, without further ado, here are the three people I was most giddy about having run into this year. 1. Nathan Fillion. This wasn't the first time I'd met Captain Tightpants -- he showed me how to drink virtual beer from his iPhone at last year's EW/Syfy party -- but I like to rekindle our bond of manliness when I can.
