Listen Later

Although today's' theme has nothing to do with actors, quite a few of them popped up in today's grid.There were some LOL clues / answers as well, and let us not gloss over some very nice pairings in the grid -- EDIE v. EDDY, LIEV v. ALEVE, those surely can't ONE, um, we mean ALL,  be coincidental! TLDR,  we loved this debut crossword from Sara Muchnick and can't  wait for more, which is why we've awarded this fine puzzle 5 squares on the NIST-approved* JAMCR scale.

*just kidding: the National Institute of Standards and Technology has not expressed an official opinion as to the validity of our scale, but as soon as they get the metric system sorted out we're sure to be next in the queue.

Show note imagery: BAD, Michael Jackson's first concert tour after leaving the Jackson 5, but definitely not an appropriate adjective for that tour!
