Yep. Wrestling was a reality show decades before the term existed.

If they can accept "Eve Marie Saint", they can accept Wham! UK.

I believe this is a product of the Netflix model - encouraging viewers to burn through episodes in a short period of time, after which the show goes away for a long time, tends to dull any emotional attachment.

JFK's advantage in the TV age was thought to be that he was good-looking, which of course does not apply to Trump.

Contestants have offered the exact same incorrect response as the previous player, normally in situations where the first player said "What is…" so quietly or quickly that the second player didn't hear it.

Jeopardy! recap for Mon., May 29 - Champ Jon was correct on all three DDs, led at every break and put the game away with a stellar performance in a category about lakes. Going into FJ Jon couldn't be caught with a massive score of $32,200 vs. $11,400 for Megan and $5,600 for Emily.

30 Rock was never a popular hit, Great News is a ratings bomb and UKS is on Netflix because they knew it wouldn't survive on NBC. So while Fey is a deity to some, it's by no means a consensus opinion across the spectrum.

It can be funny and was on South Park in the context of a super-sensitive PC frat house, but the very idea of a sexual consent form isn't by itself funny.

"Isn't the idea of a sexual consent form funny enough…"

Everyone isn't a liberal or conservative in the U.S., since the presidential candidate who got the most votes is neither (that is, according to liberals and conservatives).

Which is a reason people who don't like sports might like a reality competition. Because sports can be really boring at times, while a reality show can be set up to always be "exciting".

All they care about is your eyeballs. If a spoiler-ish headline will draw readers, they'll do it.

"What is your name, sir?"
"Forsythe. Ronald Forsythe."
"Ronald, huh? It was Rodney during rehearsal."

There also weren't people blogging about how season 18 of Lassie was shamelessly recycling old plots and hilariously suggesting the show should be "put to sleep".

To me, Jack Benny was the man. He was groundbreaking in the 30s and stayed funny right until the end.

I'm thinking back to the 60s, when early black-and-white episodes of series were almost universally superior to later color ones.

When I was a kid, Hope's TV specials were just painfully bad. It wasn't until years later that I understood why he was allowed to interrupt Carson whenever he felt like it and the crowd would go nuts.

It didn't have those 80s sitcom painfully on-the-nose lyrics, so that's a huge plus right there.

I'm trying to remember if decades ago, "this show stunk for a season before it started getting good" was as common as it is now.

"The Bachelorette (along with its lunkheaded forebear The Bachelor) is sports for people who hate sports."
