"DEAD CITY: Just as Heroes did not rebound from the writers' strike, TWD has not rebounded from the pandemic. Besides, aspects of this show are just too close to home now."
"In 1958, Andy Griffith played funny, disruptive characters in two military comedies (Onionhead and No Time for Sergeants). In 1957, he had played a political monster in his first movie, A Face in the Crowd. They were smart to change Sheriff Taylor…"
""DANNY MEETS ANDY GRIFFITH" - This is the episode of The Danny Thomas Show that served as the pilot for The Andy Griffith Show. Surprisingly (to me, anyway), Sheriff Taylor is portrayed as a crooked small town cop who tries to bilk Danny for $100…"
"The first two seasons (the ones with Chuck) were single-camera, except for a couple of experiments with a live audience. Once they went to a live audience / three-camera deal, they had to change the interiors."
"The interior of the house in The Cosby Show pilot episode is markedly different than the one in the series proper.
Likewise, speaking of Arnold's being "Arthur's" in the first episode of Happy Days, the interior of the Cunningham house is different,…"
"I haven't watched it yet, but intend to. We're limiting how many streamers we have active at one time, so we won't pick up Disney until we drop something else. That's to explain why we haven't seen it yet -- it's not due to disinterest. We're both…"
"Since posting about SNL back in February, I have not yet made good on my intention to watch the 38 years I missed on Peacock, but I have been watching all of the new shows (plus the repeats that run between 9-10PM). Between 1975 and 1987, three…"
"I've been a regular viewer of Saturday Night Live for the past several years -- about when they introduced the stunt casting of Alec Balwdin as an improbable candidate for the presidency who actually won, much to his chagrin -- after about a decade…"
"Oh, and by the way, did anyone else watch Daredevil: Born Again?
They're clearly setting up for something big next season. If they end up bringing back the other MCU Defenders characters, I hope they can do them justice. Three of the actors have…"
"It is very "RTD" if you know what I mean. By the time he finished his first stint as showrunner, I thought he was maybe running low on ideas for new alien races with a unique twist, but his time away seems to have recharged his batteries, and this…"
"We started watching Dying for Sex, but at a rate of no more than one ep a day. There's a lot to unpack, but the characters are interesting and the show is often hilarious, with dark undertones. If you haven't encountered it, it's the story of a…"

Happy Birthday to the Birthday Dude!
Hope it's a good one.
I'd have got you another cake, but I haven't earned any credits since your last birthday...
(How do you earn credits anyway?)
