Isn’t there someone who makes the call to put this on, someone above this guy who has to okay the segment? Is anyone above him also going to take a hit (not that I think anything in that bit is worth being fired over)?

If anyone wants to get an idea of what a toned down version might be like there was a British and Canadian tv series back in 2000 (ish) that used the voice talents of folks like John Hurt, Stephen Fry, Dawn French, and (I think) Rick Mayall. And it ran two or three seasons!

Wasn’t there a third live-action Gantz movie, I think a tv movie or special (maybe), that was basically the same storyline but involved or was from the perspective of a reporter looking into Gantz activity?

Only asking because the numbers astound me but does anyone know what the network’s yearly operating costs (or whatever - I do not know the correct term) were? It just sounds insane to me that they lost $335 million in a year, almost as if, on top of production costs, they were giving away all the commercial slots for…

(Okay, odd thing just happened, or I just noticed, only sharing because it is weird)

“Liang is the first New York City cop in ten years to be convicted in a fatal shooting incident.”

Okay, cannot click on links or search from this station, so what is the Observer, or maybe I should be saying which Observer is it (I know of three newspapers that go by that name, but I do not know if it is even a printed paper)? Thanks.

Just want to mention that he was shooting a miniseries over in Wilmington about Seal Team Six* and, because of the surgery, he is being replaced by Walton Goggins. Because I know if I need to replace JM the first person who comes to mind as a perfect replacement is WG (sorry, just to be clear I enjoy Mr. Goggins in…

All I could think of when I saw that was Anna Wintour would be calling to get Lee Grant’s hair back (sorry).

I do not know how to ask a specific question without giving away spoilers, so putting it vaguely does anyone know if the current version will follow the same storylines as the original books and series? Thanks.

But what was actually done to the picture, photoshop-wise? From the coverage on tv Adweek is claiming they only added volume to Ms. Washington’s hair. Is there a copy of the real picture available? Thanks.

I have asked this before but I still want someone to actually step up and explain the thinking behind or reasons for this bill. So far I have only heard one person try to explain it and it was only the “we are only thinking of the children” bit. I do not say this lightly but frankly all I see is pure prejudice and…

Someone has probably already mentioned this and I missed it, but on cuts and scrapes I have been told by our hospice nurses no hp (I was using hp), no soap, use only a saline solution (the one they supply me with is a 0.9% Sodium Chloride Irrigation USP per the label).

One of our unexpected expenses when moving here was finding out that, like everyone else in this area with a mortgage, we had to carry a separate wind policy on our home (to the tune of about $2500/yr) on top of our regular home owners policy.

Makes some sense depending on the source. Some older movies had different edits and were framed differently on older VHS releases versus available DVD’s, so I see the value. Additionally if anything was copied off of tv rather than an official release you could have WKRP with the original soundtrack, Carpenter’s The…

I always liked (I think it was) John Byrne’s idea that the Bat had a bunch of Batmobiles, that on the outside looked like normal cars, situated around the city. That way he could use them whenever he needed, leave them if needed, and race around not bringing attention to himself.

I was wondering the same thing. Do not know if it is because I am getting older or that we are are more connected or the information just is more out there combined with more down time/surfing for me, but I sure as heck am noticing it more and more.

I am truly surprised that that is all he makes. All joking about bribes aside are there any other above board compensations he gets? Under four million (U.S.?) just seems really low given other salaries involved.

(Not as surprised by this as the fact you love BBC America currently, what with them rerunning Who and Trek seemingly twenty-four hours per day. Even I can only take so much Who and Trek.)

That is what is was called. Thank you. I posted something about it before I saw your post but could not remember the product’s name.
