zany

“Full House” star Dave Coulier, who played the Tanner family’s zany Uncle Joey, has cancer.

Last weekend, Angelenos came in huge numbers, in zany outfits, on tricked out bikes, dogs everywhere, pouring into the streets as if this were the first warm day after a snowbound winter.

"Today’s young women know that neurotic isn’t cute. Cute isn’t cute. Neither is flustered, madcap, zany, flighty, flaky, harried or hapless - all adjectives that apply to Bridget."

It’s hard to overstate the cultural impact of Tim Burton’s “Beetlejuice” in 1988 — in fact, it feels like the wild-haired “bio-exorcist” memorably embodied by Michael Keaton has simply always been around, especially for a subset of millennials who grew up with the zany horror comedy on repeat.

I can’t say this is my idea of a theatrical good time, but I appreciated the zany commitment and indefatigable exertion of a company dedicated to the worthy cause of mindless fun.
