What was the reasoning, again, for not airing this on broadcast?

Look up the pretty funny 2016 CW series ‘No Tomorrow’ for a similar ‘end-of-the-world but nobody believes me’ comedy premise. Last time I looked (long ago) it was on Netflix. Based on a Brazilian hit series named ‘How to Enjoy The End Of The World’, which looks even funnier but I’ve only seen a couple Youtube clips of

I lived in/around Boston for 40 years. The classic Good Will Hunting ‘Boston accent’ has become as rare as an Italian accent in the gentrified North End. Because the Boston working class can’t afford to live in Boston anymore.

Now playing

Just in time for halloween, there’s a new monster TV series named ‘SEARCH’ that just came out. I checked my streaming site, episode 1 is now 98% subtitled and episode 2 will be available today. South Korean soldiers are trapped in the DMZ while being hunted by a mysterious creature. Judging from the trailer its

As an aside, the concept of a sawed-off-barrel bolt action rifle with a scope on it is... how shall I put this delicately? ....Really really dumb.

Its likely that the estate is made up of Trump/Likud loving extremist right wingers.

Do you know how rare it is to get an unequivocal ‘A’ grade from AV Club?

Think back almost a decade ago, the Sci fi TV series ‘The Event’. the season ends with a burning hell planet appearing in earth’s orbit. Then the series just ends.

The irony of these idiotic Trump tweets is they most likely aren’t from Trump at all. There must be a lackey in the WH basement with the job of posting tweets with just the right balance of crazy, ignorant and malicious to pass for a genuine Trump tweet. The big giveaway is the sentence structure and grammar are

With the flood of advance voting its highly likely Biden’s already won and nothing they say can change that. Though the chance of radicals in the electoral college voting against the constituents’ wishes to keep Trump in power is not out of the question.

We should start a poll to guess how many states will entirely subvert the democratic process on election day in an attempt to keep the right wing in power. I’ll conservatively guess five.

The actor’s life in Hollywood. You work a string of part time jobs (usually wait staff in restaurants) while going to endless casting calls. One day you get lucky, you get cast in the role of a witch in a TV series. Suddenly you’re doing magazine photo shoots, you’re being asked your opinion on all topics under the

Now we look at the film and think ‘That ship is a floating petri dish of disease!’

I’m sick of everything getting ‘rebooted’ just to make bank off the name recognition, myself, (I’m looking at you, ‘Macgyver’) but the original ‘Charmed’ was not exactly an adaptation of a Henry James novella.

From the town hall interview: “You’re the president, not someone’s crazy uncle.” Apparently, being one doesn’t preclude also being the other.

I don’t recall any ‘mass catharsis’, maybe I missed out. I found the film to be rather stilted and hokey, and the scene with Billy Zane wielding a pistol while the Titanic sank was just plain dumb. I recall someone described the film as ‘Privileged teenage girl bones a hobo and considers herself ‘woke’.

Considering the shenanigans Mr. And Ms. Trump got into I’m frankly surprised Barron doesn’t resemble Jeffery Epstein.

Do you know how easy it would have been to make a new original series? Instead of calling the main character Dexter give him the name Maurice. You don’t need to change anything but the name. Voi-la, you’ve now got a whole new series original cable series.

The is a certain class of American show that I would place under the header ‘Makes you dumber just by watching’. That class encompasses a remarkably wide variety of genres, from sitcoms to news programs to police procedurals to reality TV.

The West Wing premiered in 1999. That was before Dick Cheney, before Iraq, before the Tea Party, before 9-11, before Mitch McConnell, before torture camps, before birtherism, before the Bush recession, before the Republican party committed treason in order to gain unfettered power, before the global pandemic. So yeh, t
