There are SoCal preservationists (“Some of these houses are almost TWENTY years old!” - Steve Martin in LA Story) ticked off that many older parts of the facility are being stripped away. ‘Tis folly to point out that it’s a working studio, and if it didn’t occasionally upgrade, the stages built in

I still think the best phase of Corden was the pandemic in-studio when he had to deal with his staff as the audience. But maybe that's just me because I liked The Garry Shandling Show and the 4th wall being broken. That and the VP Late Night, West Coast. On Mon, Feb 27, 2023 at 3:10 PM Kevin

Re: [TV orNotTV] Re: Corden's farewell to include Tom Cruise

It wasn’t that I disliked Corden, it was that he went out of his way to skew as far from me and my demographic as possible. I don’t think he was bad at his job; his show just wasn’t geared towards me. On Mon, Feb 27, 2023 at 10:33 AM Pete Ahles wrote: > "David Letterman: A Life on Television"

The most relevant part of that video, to me, was the acknowledgement from the person that she didn't even know Dilbert was a thing anymore.  Getting shuffled off to the business section from the comics pages (like the Post did years ago) provides a combination of little scrutiny and relative
