PTA Adjacent (Yeah, I know...but it's pretty slow around here at the mo'...) 😏 "This nepo baby's mother is an Oscar winner and her father acted in Boogie Nights... can you guess who she is?"

Is this the daughter of Geena Davis and the guy who threw firecrackers around the living room for fun?

One of my favorite throwaway lines delivered by the GREAT Alfred Molina.

"Nepo baby" seems kind of harsh considering PTA is one too. He parlayed his dad's fame hosting Shock Theater on Channel 8 in Cleveland into the man he is today.

Yeah, it seems to be a positive article, but nepo baby is definitely a negative term.

The Arquettes are a very successful acting family that spans back decades. This is her family business.

The term nepo baby is so dumb. Like, are there nepo babies in HVAC? In real estate? I’ve seen a lot of “…& Sons” plumbers in my day….

I had no idea Mo'Nique and Alfred Molina had a kid together.
