James Brolin slaughtered son Josh's pet pig and made him eat it.
[quote]Reflecting on his father today, Brolin says, "My dad's an interesting guy in that he's super friendly, but there's a stop sign. It's like, before you get on the freeway, there's red light. You're ready to go. You're ready to get on the freeway and go 65, 75 miles an hour, and the light never turns. So you're sitting there like this and you're like, It's presented to me that I'm gonna go. And then the stoplight never changes — it just stays perpetually red."
Sounds like they had a shitty relationship.
Hardly the knight in shining armor, Babs.

Did Barbra eat it for dinner? Was it kosher?

I cannot think that Barbra, queen bitch that she is, would condone this.

James was/is a horrible actor. I always assume that Will Farrell based his Ron Burgundy character on Brolin's performance in The Amityville Horror. He is laughable in it!

James has been married three times - first to Josh’s mother (Jane Cameron Agee), then to Jan Smithers (Bailey Quarters), then to Babs. Josh was about 18 when James married Jan & in his 30s when James married Babs.

He wants to drive 75 on the highway? I hope that red light stays red forever!

Jesus. Is this kind of extreme sadistic child abuse real or is this drama/actor bullshit? Is he so out of touch he thinks this sounds believable/normal to the average person or did this actually happen and he has no idea how sick his father is?

James is so hot. He could still get it.
I can deal with the crazy that comes with good dick.

I saw a clip of Josh on Graham Norton, he was on with Cher. He mentioned his famous step mother and looks over at Cher and says "You know her?" Cher says, "Yes." and looks away and dead silence for 15 seconds.

R15, Josh is telling this of his father, James.
I fail to see the narcissism.

I think the worst punishment in the world would be being married to Barbra Streisand. Can you imagine such a cunt?

Maybe James Brolin still hates that pig named Jodi.

I’m rather disappointed. I’m prescribing some strong medication and a shock treatment.

Uh...this is not that big a deal. Ever heard of farming? They had a fucking ranch, ok? Jesus, you bunch of pearl clutchers. And I am sure Josh was aware the animals were being raised for food. He's making it sound abusive by having random pork show up on the dinner table that turns out to be ...duh duh duh!!! His best farm buddy!

R20 is right - I was thinking, was the message that the animals on the farm eventually get eaten? Every farm kid has to go through that.
That's what I think the 'lesson' was - but I can't see them living on a working farm in California with cattle, sheep and pigs.
So who knows? Growing up a man during that time and with those looks, James probably got away with a LOT of shitty behavior in his life.

My mother grew up raising pigs. She knew when they were slaughtered, though.
I never liked Josh. He has major issues.

Anyone raised in Hollywood or with celebrities as parents is nuts. Anything for attention. Anything for publicity. Gross people.

Josh’s mother was crazy, dad was the sane, and usually boring, one.

R20, context and dark humor (Josh) are too sophisticated for most on DL.

Here's an interview with Josh - he sounds like a real piece of shit.
They DID live on a farm. His mother was an alcoholic and so was he and he said she was very difficult.
He himself got into trouble with drugs and violence and spent NINE stints in jail.
He finally got clean 10 years ago - so I don't trust his version of events. Y'know sometimes the kids are awful and blame the parents who had little to do with it.

When Jason was going through his Donna Summers phase, I had her slaughtered and made him eat her.
Great minds think alike.
