Morgan Lofting, who helped bring to life multiple iconic characters with her voiceover work, has died. She was 84 years old.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, Lofting died "unexpectedly" on Wednesday at her home in Burbank, California. No additional details were shared about her passing, though Lofting's death was confired by her agents, Nery Lemus and Christopher Arsaga of CelebWorx. In a statement, the two noted, “As one of the 10 founding actors at our agency, she meant the world to us and our company."

Lofting was born on Feb. 2, 1940, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her career as a voiceover artist began in 1979 when she started voicing the role of Princess Invidia for the TV series Star Blazers. She followed this up with her casting at the voice of Aunt May Parker in the animated Spider-Man series that aired in the early 1980s; Lofting also provided the voice of Black Cat for the cartoon show.

Millennials might be the first to remember The Disney Afternoon, a two-hour block of Disney cartoons that aired on weekdays from 1990-1997. The block ran in four half-hour segments which alternated between multiple animated series. Surprisingly, the line-up was not slated for The Disney Channel only and aired in many markets across the United States. Some of the headlining shows featured characters that Disney fans would have already been familiar with from the studio's catalog of films and shorts, while others presented all-new characters and concepts.

Recognizable shows, like Darkwing Duck, first aired on The Disney Afternoon and featured voice talents like Jim Cummings. A veteran Disney voice actor, Cummings is best known as the current voice of Winnie the Pooh and Tigger -- but his resume extends well beyond Disney. Nostalgia for The Disney Afternoon has encouraged the studio to consider rebooting some of its properties from the block,...

Disney+ celebrates 90 years of Donald Duck with two remastered classics and a brand-new animated short.

In a June 9 X post from the official Disney+ account, it was announced that both "Crazy Over Daisy" and "Out on a Limb" had been remastered for rerelease in celebration of the 90th anniversary of Donald Duck's widespread debut. The shorts are joined by an all-new animated outing, "D.I.Y. Duck," produced by Emmy Award-winner Dorothy McKim and brought to life by Walt Disney Animation Studios' hand-drawn animation team.

Jeff Harris and Bernie Kukoff's sitcom "Diff'rent Strokes" debuted in 1978 and ran 189 episodes over a whopping eight seasons. The series starred Gary Coleman and Todd Bridges as Arnold and Willis Jackson, two impoverished kids from Harlem whose mother had recently died. They were adopted by the wealthy Mr. Drummond (Conrad Bain), a Park Avenue millionaire. The series revolved around the relationship Arnold and Willis developed with their adopted father, new sister Kimberly (Dana Plato), and one of three kindly housekeepers. In the 1984 season, Mr. Drummond married a woman named Maggie, and she was played by Dixie Carter for two years before being replaced by Mary Ann Mobley.

"Diff'rent Strokes" wasn't just overwhelmingly popular, but it also served as a template for a decade's worth of booming sitcoms. It was "Diff'rent Strokes" that famously presented "very special episodes" about serious issues like drug addiction, homelessness, eating disorders, and looking out...

Casper, the live-action adaptation of the Friendly Ghost, featured a fully CGI lead character and a darker storyline about Casper's tragic past. The Ghostly Trio, consisting of Stretch, Fatso, and Stinkie, play a key role in Casper's comedy and are known for scaring the living. Stretch is the tallest and most aggressive of the trio, voiced by Joe Nipote, while Fatso is corpulent and dim-witted, voiced by Brad Garrett. Stinkie, voiced by Joe Alaskey, uses his bad breath to scare people.

Casper introduced the audience to the title Friendly Ghost, but with Casper also came the Ghostly Trio, and here’s who played these chaotic but fun characters. In 1995, Casper the Friendly Ghost made the jump from cartoons to live-action in Casper, directed by Brad Silberling and with Steven Spielberg as executive producer. Casper mixed live-action with CGI in order to make the ghosts look believable, and became the first...

It never fails: when talking about Disney’s incessant live-action remakes of their animated library, everyone agrees that it’s a terrible trend…only to start discussing either which cartoon they want to see remade next, or which one to date they like most. I have to bow out of the conversation at that point; I’d rather watch reruns of Quack Pack than sit through another of these bloated exercises in cynical nostalgia mining, and “like” is a strong word. For a little while after leaving the theater in 2016, I might have given The Jungle Book as an answer to that latter question, but then I realized that I just like Bill Murray and Christopher Walken. Their charisma made an otherwise frustrating effort tolerable. But Disney had revisited Rudyard Kipling’s beloved tale once before Jon Favreau’s film (twice if you count The Jungle Book: Mowgli’s Story...

Despite winning almost every challenge in “Big Brother 22” and its six members making the final 7, “The Committee” alliance ranks only third in our poll results for the strongest alliance in series history. Members Cody Calafiore, Nicole Franzel, Memphis Garrett, Dani Briones, Christmas Abbott and Tyler Crispen earned only 15% of your votes when compared with four other dominant alliances from “Bb” history.

This Ducktales review contains spoilers.

Launchpad has mostly been the butt of jokes in DuckTales. Sure, the guy has gotten time to shine in the past (especially in the Darkwing Duck episodes) but compared to the other main characters Launchpad is often left on the sidelines. Here though he takes center stage and while we don’t get much insight into the guy it’s mostly made up for in spectacle.

The bulk of the episode is given over to an elaborate James Bond spoof with an updated version of Steelbeak from the original Darkwing Duck. The great twist is that throughout the episode Launchpad and Dewey think they’re simply playing an Ar game at Funso’s Fun Zone (where fun is in the zone.) Even when Steelbeak captures the two, Dewey thinks it’s all still a game. Launchpad however gets blasted with an intelligence enhancement ray and...

Congratulations, Britney Haynes, you no longer have to suffer with the knowledge that your alliance had the dumbest name of all-time. While she often mocked the stupidity of the name Quack Pack in season 14, that's nothing compared to the Rationale of Big Brother 16. The alliance itself has potential to make a big difference in the game, but the name is ridiculous and pompous, like something a bunch of philosophy majors would name their college alt-rock band. Let's just hope they don't immediately decide to cannibalize themselves like the Bomb Squad and the Detonators.

Big Brother reunited the fifteen houseguests who were not expelled (sorry Willie!) last night for the season 14 finale, which saw Dan and Ian face-off in the final two!

As we now know, Ian emerged victorious -- but there has been some debate amongst fans if his gameplay truly deserved to best Dan's. I caught up with Dan, Ian, Danielle, Britney and Shane to talk about the jury's verdict, who truly deserved to win and if Danielle truly has a shot with Shane now that they're outside the house!

After 75 days, 16 houseguests and dozens of competitions, Big Brother 14 has a winner! Following last Thursday's elimination of their fellow Quack Pack alliance member Shane Meaney, the final three houseguests - Danielle Murphee, Ian Terry and returning player Dan Gheesling - battled it out for the final Head of Household of season 14. Spoilers ahead! Ian, 21, won the three-part competition and kept his deal with Dan, choosing to evict Danielle, who became the final member of the jury tasked with voting between the final two and awarding one of them the $500,000 grand prize. After a tense interrogation with Dan and Ian making their cases,...

"I hope you're not too disgusted with me," Dan Gheesling pleaded tonight on Big Brother 14 as he entreated the jury one last time to hand him the $500,000 prize. And that about sums up what we were down to Wednesday on the show's season finale (don't cry, CBS has renewed it for next summer!)—the crafty, manipulative season-10 winner vs. the slightly more conscientious Danielle Murphree and Ian Terry. "He's going to leave a man one way or another, " ousted veteran houseguest Mike "Boogie" Malin said of Quack Pack leader Ian, who claimed that Dan gave him his grandfather's gold cross as collateral to ensure that he wouldn't vote Ian off the...

Update: My full recap is live! The fourteenth season of Big Brother got off to a bad start with a poorly-conceived coaching twist. But after a few weeks, the coaches hit the reset button, and things got interesting. And then Dan found himself in a tight spot, and things got really interesting. In the last few weeks, Dan has run the Big Brother house like some demon combination of a Gilded Age political boss and a Mongolian warrior chieftain. He eradicated his enemies. He made final-two deals with everyone. It scarcely seemed to matter who won competitions — Dan had a...

The Big Brother House has become the Quack Pack House in the final days of this season. Out of the five original members of the worst-named alliance in Bb history, four survived into the final week — not a bad record. But tonight marked the turning point: The moment when the Quack Pack would be torn asunder by necessity. Who would Danielle nominate for eviction? And, more importantly, who would win the decisive veto competition? And, most importantly of all: Who would be walking out the door? Well, in the end Danielle nominated Dan and Ian for eviction, but only because Dan insisted,...

Now that the Big Brother feeds are finally back, shit is really getting crazy. We're trying to keep up, but we won't really know for sure until tonight's live eviction. You ready for this?

In last night's taped eviction, we saw Jenn walk out the door and Danielle win the Hoh after a gag-inducing luxary trip for her and Shane to some event with the U.S. women's gymnastics team. Seriously, since when does Shane like her? I don't think he's smart enough to play her, but hey, maybe he is. It's working. The girl is pathetically drooling all over him.

Anyway, let's get to what we didn't see: Danielle's nominations and the Pov competition. She nominated Dan and Ian, which shocked me for about two minutes until I remember how much Shane smoozed her during that trip outside the house.  Oh, and she won the Pov competition! What?!?

I started getting really,...

There was a big reward on the line for the Pov competition on Wednesday's special eviction episode of "Big Brother," even if the houseguests didn't know exactly what they were in for. All they knew was that it awarded them an opportunity to get out of the house, and after more than two months that's all they needed to know.

Ian had nominated Jenn and Shane for eviction this week, with Dan secretly targeting Shane as a bigger threat in the finals. But Shane pulled out a victory in the Pov competition, with some help from Ian who wasn't privy to Dan's schemes. For his win, he got to choose one fellow houseguest to join him. He chose his "showmance" partner, Danielle.

The pair acted like maybe their feelings for one another were real -- only his were really in question -- as they got to meet the Us Women's Olympic gymnastics team.

So, it's down to the final five, or what I like to call the Quack Pack and Jenn. Not that the Quack Pack is much of an alliance, as everyone except Shane seems to have a final two deal with Dan (and that may have happened and I just missed it), and Dan is eagerly rubbing his hands together in anticipation of stomping on their broken bodies on the way to the finish line. The crazy part is, of course, that every remaining hamster seems likely to smile up at him as he does it. "Gee, Dan, you're really good at...

When "Big Brother 14" kicks off and Julie Chen informs us the hamsters have no idea she's there, she's not joking. At the taping of this eviction episode, the houseguests were caught totally off guard by Julie and the live audience -- Shane didn't have pants on. At least no one was in the shower.

Post Nominations

Shane and Jenn are on the block, not that it really matters that much once everyone plays for Veto. Jenn expresses disbelief that Dan keeps staying off the block -- no kidding, girl. It's called the Dan Mist. He's like a warlock or something.

Meanwhile, Shane has no idea that he's the real target. And in the on-going saga that is Danielle being delusional about a showmance, Danielle is starting to think maybe Shane is just not that into her. Uh, ya think?

Power of Veto

The Pov is flying through the air and assembling a puzzle.

The final week of Big Brother 14 got off to a rollicking start tonight, with a special surprise eviction episode. Would the Quack Pack complete their Quack destiny of total Quack domination, and expel the lone floater hold-out Jenn from house? Or would Dan’s mad plan to backstab Shane come to fruition? Well, the votes are in, and… after Shane won the power of veto and was replaced on the block by Danielle, the Quack Pack knocked Jenn City out of the house. [Update: Read my full recap of the episode here.]

It’s perhaps not surprising to see Jenn go, considering what a non-entity she was in the first half of the summer.

The "Big Brother 14" house taped a show Tuesday night (Sept. 11) to air Wednesday night. Keep reading to find out what's up with your Final 4 hamsters. Or sign up for the live feeds to start watching the final few competitions play out.

In what is not a surprise at all, Jenn was evicted by a 2-0 vote. So the Quack Pack stayed together and appears to be Dan/Ian versus Shane/Danielle, though the Dan/Danielle relationship does throw that off a bit.

After the eviction (during which Jenn was given a Pb&J sandwich during her exit interview with Julie, heh), they houseguests played for Hoh -- minus Ian, of course, as outgoing Hoh. And the new Head of Household is none other than Danielle. Look who can finally win something other than the pirate ship comp.

So Danielle is Hoh. There were no nominations made, but at this point it hardly matters.

Gaming has been afoot in the "Big Brother 14," despite the hamsters only numbering five. Sign up for the live feeds so you don't miss a minute -- there's going to be an eviction on Tuesday!

So, Ian won the most recent Head of Household last week, after Thursday's live show. He nominated Shane and Jenn, though now that everyone plays for Pov, it hardly matters anymore. Both the nominees took it pretty well, though Jenn can tell she's the target this week.

The Power of Veto competition saw Shane win Pov, so he will obviously remove himself from the block at the ceremony Monday (Sept. 10). Ian is going to nominate Danielle as the replacement, because he feels confident about his Final 2 deal with Dan.

It will be very interesting to see what Dan ends up doing the rest of the way. We don't honestly think Dan can beat Ian. Dan has been the best player,...

The Big Brother house can be an extremely unpredictable place, but we can always count on Frank for some stability. We know that if Frank doesn’t win Head of Household, he’s going to be put up on the chopping block. So of course, Frank was nominated for eviction last week (he took a penalty during a veto competition that forced him to sit out of the following two HoH competitions) by his arch-nemesis — former ally — Ian, reaffirming his status as the perennial victim. Dan’s actions, on the other hand, sustained his newfound role as villain. Although he swore on his wedding band,...

On the latest "Big Brother 14" episode, Dan finally starts winning things. Also, now is a great time to get the live feeds. Since Thursday is a live double eviction, there will almost surely be an endurance comp that starts as the episode ends, but you can watch on the feeds. Plus, as we get closer to the finale, there will be the final Head of Household rounds that take place on the feeds.

Post Nominations

Jenn is really nervous, which is kind of insane. Sure, it sucks to be nominated, but c'mon. This is like the week she got so mad about being the replacement nominee -- all you gotta do is lay low, girl. People want Frank out. Just calm down. At least hide your freaking out, instead of going bat-crap crazy like two weeks ago.

Dan has Frank completely wrapped up in their Final 2 deal, which is hilarious.

Big Brother favorite Britney Haynes was blindsided once again last week as she was evicted by her fellow houseguests following one of the craziest weeks we've ever seen.

Brit appeared completely safe with her fellow Quack Pack until Dan pulled a last-minute Hail Mary move to save himself from the block. He held his own funeral and teamed up with his biggest enemy in the house, a move no one saw coming. And a move we had to ask Britney about.

" totally respect his game move," she tells Ology. "He did what he had to do to advance himself for another week and I really think he is a genius."

Obviously, we agree. But what about Jenn? Was it smart on her part to use the Power of Veto on Dan? "It was so dumb of her to do that," Britney says. "It made her a huge target in the house....

Hello, "Big Brother" fans. Sorry to take a weekend hiatus, but we're back with all the updates from the live feeds.

First off, after Ian nominated Frank and Jenn, Dan won Power of Veto and removed Jenn from the block, with Joe going up as the replacement. It was a great move for Dan, because Jenn was in no real danger of going home this week, so he gets to repay her and look like a good guy without really having an effect on the game. Smooth.

Now that it's Joe vs. Frank, the Quack Pack (Ian/Dan/Danielle/Shane) decided it's better for all involved if they pretend they are keeping Frank all week long, so that he doesn't campaign too hard and doesn't annoy the crap out of them all week.

So far that seems to be working like a charm. Joe knows what's going on and is...

Another coach bites the dust. Britney Haynes was infamously ousted by The Brigade alliance the first time she competed in the Big Brother house, but this season it was her own Quack Pack that sent her out the door. The pharmaceutical sales rep, 24, told People the morning after her eviction how Ian has become a force to be reckoned with, why Jenn's "big move" is a joke, and what she really thought of Dan's "funeral."You mentioned being the "big bad wolf" to Shane. What did you mean by that?I felt like I was always held accountable for Shane's actions,...

As previously announced, Ian won this week's Head of Household competition. It was down to he and Shane and eventually, the latter asked the rest of the houseguests if they would give he and Ian some time to talk alone. Of course, that told them all that Shane was about to drop out of the competition and would likely try to make a deal with Ian. Honestly, I think Shane is the last person Ian wants to go after. Perhaps Shane was ensuring the safety of Danielle?   In any case, Ian held true to his promise to Brittany in that he would avenge her after she was blind-sided and evicted from the Big Brother house last week. He nominated Frank and Jenn for eviction as both houseguests played a part in her eviction. Nevertheless, Dan was the one who came up with the plan to get her out of the house and for some reason,...

The Power of Veto competition for Week 8 is over in the "Big Brother 14" house and the houseguests actually look to be seizing an opportunity. Keep reading to find out who is in danger, or get the live feeds to watch it play out for yourself.

New Hoh Ian put Frank and Jenn on the block this week, with Joe as his possible renom choice after realigning with the Quack Pack members (specifically Dan, which is interesting).

The Veto comp was the annual Otev question-and-answer competition and in a bit of a surprise, Dan won the Veto. He seems to really want to pay Jenn back for last week and is going to take her off the block -- which isn't exactly a huge game move, but definitely a good PR move.

Obviously, since Frank is the target, it doesn't hurt Dan to return the Veto favor to Jenn since she...

The new Head of Household in the "Big Brother 14" house has made his or her nominations -- keep reading to find out who's up on the block, or sign up for the live feeds to see for yourself.

Ian is the new Head of Household, after hanging in on the sun merry-go-round to the finals with Shane, who then made a deal to keep himself and Danielle safe. Ian stuck to his word and nominated Jenn and Frank for eviction.

We aren't sure that's Ian's smartest move. He is still sore at Frank and Jenn for getting Britney out, not realizing that Dan was the total mastermind. In fact, Ian has realigned with the Quack Pack members.

What would be interesting is it Joe wins Power of Veto (which, he probably won't, but you never know). If Jenn and Frank can reel him in by saying it's Shane/Ian/Dan...

A little over two weeks ago, we wrote an op-ed about "Big Brother 14" possibly being the worst season of the show ever. It certainly was rivaling Season 9, which took place in the winter during the writers' strike.

However, in the past week, the show has pretty much redeemed all of the crap we put up with all summer long in one fell swoop, courtesy of Dan Gheesling.

Dan went into 24-hour solitary confinement nominated and probably on his way out the door, since who is going to evict non-threat Danielle over huge threat Dan? But he hatched a plan that still would've been fun to watch had it not worked, but since it did? Amazing.

It doesn't hurt that Frank and Jenn, with no real alliance and not exactly the world's most cutthroat gamers, were ripe for the picking. But that probably went into Dan's thinking when devising this devious scheme.

The "Big Brother 14" endurance competition put a new Head of Household in power Thursday night (Aug. 30). Keep reading to find out who he or she wants to target -- or sign up for the live feeds three-day free trial and watch for yourselves.

Ian is the new Hoh, after Shane dropped out of the Hoh comp once Ian promised Shane and Danielle were safe this week. But who is Ian targeting?

Frank and Jenn. Which -- we aren't sure that's Ian's smartest move.

Late in the night, once Frank got called into the Diary Room, Ian reassembled the Quack Pack in the Hoh room and they realigned. Since Shane and Danielle are a pair, now Ian and Dan are kind of a pair too (more by default).

The plan is to nominate Frank and Jenn with Joe as the renom option. Which is so interesting because Ian is blaming Frank...

[Update: My full recap is now live!] One of the most eventful weeks in Big Brother history came to an end tonight, with an eviction episode that set up this season’s endgame. One week ago, Mike Boogie and Smashley went home in a stunning double-elimination facilitated by Quack Pack mole Ian, but the Quack Pack’s ultimate target, Frank, managed to ascend to the Head of Household throneroom in a mesmerizing come-from-far-far-behind HoH competition. Then, last night, a desperate Dan hatched a daring plan…and wound up forming an alliance with his number-one nemesis, Frank. That plan resulted in Britney — the Lucille Bluth of the Big Brother...

It's been a very crazy last seven days in the Big Brother 14 house. First Boogie and Ashley were sent home in a double eviction, then Frank won HoH and targeted his arch-nemesis Dan, then Dan flipped the house on its head with his "Big Brother Funeral" and successfully exposed the Quack Pack to turn Frank against Ian. It was a move that, in my mind, made Dan the best player in the history of the game, but I'll let you be the judge of that.

Phew. Not that we all have a Big Brother hangover, it's time to talk about everything that went down in last night's episode, which was certainly one of the the best in history.

Remember that time I told you about Dan's crazy plan to save himself? Well, it actually worked. If you haven't been watching the live feeds, you were in for a huge surprise last night as Dan somehow saved himself from being evicted even though everyone in the house wanted him out. But let's back up.

The episode begins with the Veto competition right away, which is all the more indication that something amazing is about to happen. It's a "Draw Something" game where the houseguests guess words and if they get it right, they get points. But, they also get a punishment.

The Quack Pack agrees to let Shane...

After the Power of Veto competition, Dan spent 24 hours in solitary confinement. He went in there as a dead man walking -- Hoh Frank was gunning for him and he was already up for eviction -- but he came out a changed man. He also made a case for himself as one of the greatest to ever play "Big Brother" if this plan of his works, according to CarterMatt.

Dan came out of solitary and seemed resigned to his fate. He had a "funeral" for Dan the player, during which he completely threw his ally from the start, Danielle, under the bus. She was shattered, as she'd genuinely done nothing wrong.

While the rest of the house thought he was up giving a more personal apology to Frank in the Hoh room, Dan was actually revealing everything to that point about the Quack Pack and Ian's duplicity. In doing so,...

The latest "Big Brother 14" episode should be amazing, based on the live feeds we've had recently. Strap in, hamster fans. Speaking of which, word on the street is tomorrow night's an endurance comp, so sign up for the live feeds to watch.

Post Nominations

Dan and Danielle are on the block and the Quack Pack has designs on Britney or Shane winning the Pov so that the whole Qp can be safe (two come down, two who used Vetos are safe, and the remaining person on the block is safe because Qp has the votes).

Power of Veto

It's the always-awesome "How Far Would You Go" Pov, where the houseguests win Pov by accepting punishments.  Before the comp, Jenn finally decides she should maybe start playing the game, so she aligns herself with Frank. So she's shooting for $50,000, then.

The competition is "Draw Something"-based. Each picture/word is a...

Just when it seemed like the Quack Pack might stand a chance in getting Frank out of the Big Brother house, he came back yet again, winning the Head of Household competition and therefore becoming the most powerful player in the game yet again. This change forced players to make a move, with Britney switching to the dark side to make a private deal with him in order to ensure her own safety. While Ian found the extra Power of Veto chip this week, another is still on the loose, leaving doubt that Frank's nominees Dan and Danielle will stay on the block.

20:55Britney is in a shambles in the Diary Room, crying her eyes out and saying that she has no fight left in her. Wow. Tomorrow night (August 30), we find out if the rest of...

Big Brother 14 Britney spotted crying hard after getting put up for eviction today. As previously reported, a big twist went down in the Big Brother season 14 house today. Reigning HoH Frank, replaced Dan on the eviction chopping block with Britney after Jenn used her Veto to save Dan. It was all apart of an elaborate scheme,cooked up by former winner Dan Gheesling. Last night, Dan gave a big,fake,speech,professing he was ready to go home,and didn't want to talk game with anyone. He also told Danielle she was dead to him as far as the game goes for added touch. After that, Dan ran straight up to Frank's room to spill all the details on the Quack pack,including ratting out Ian for setting up Boogie to exit the game. From there, they set up a new alliance that would target Britney to get back at Ian,...

Sunday night (Aug. 26) was easily the best night of live feeds for all of "Big Brother 14" and we'd put it up against any few hours of any season ever. It's not too late to sign up for the three-day free trial -- today's Pov ceremony should set off some explosions in the house.

So, read all about Dan's master plan here. It was a sight to behold, y'all. But the gist is that he, Frank, Jenn and Danielle are a new final four alliance. Nobody outside of the four of them suspects and the plan is that Jenn will use the Pov on Dan and Britney will go up on the block as the target for eviction.

What's interesting is that Ian is not the target, because Frank was very angry at Ian after hearing Dan spill his guts about the Quack Pack. But they are right in that if Britney goes,...

I can't control my feelings right now. I'm warning you. I'll try to put into words exactly what went down on the feeds tonight, but I can't promise that I won't be excited. Because your mind is about to be blown.

Warning: There Are Spoilers. Stop Reading If You Don't Want To Know.

Dan f*cking Gheesling might be pulling off the most epic move in Bb history right now. This kid won his season by somehow talking his way off the block week after week, but tonight's live feeds just prove how genius he really is. Ready?

Dan calls a house meeting, or what he likes to call his "Big Brother funeral." He proceeds to go around and tell everyone why he loves them and how much he loves this game. He basically says that he's accepted his defeat and he doesn't want to talk game for the rest of the week.
