Just watched the Star Trek musical episode. As a musical, it wasn’t great but could have been worse. I’d rank it better than the Buffy musical but not as good as the Scrubs musical. But this was probably the closest we will ever get to a Star Trek/Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy crossover. They

I followed her on Instagram, and saw that she posted she is working through the quarter finals then done. That is an improvement over Men’s WC, but would like to see her do two more games. On Thu, 3 Aug 2023 at 12:14 PM Tom Wolper wrote: > John Strong and Stu Holden were the top announcing team

and the other shoe to drop: is there really no other news to report? things that have actually happened, or are happening? the good news is, if you watch one hour of coverage this evening, you don't have to watch cable news again until Monday evening at the earliest On Thu, Aug 3, 2023 at 6:06

If today can only be a circus, don’t televise the circus. Put on a rerun of the day you say the networks did read the indictment aloud. If they got Tuesday right, it doesn’t excuse them getting Thursday wrong. On Thu, Aug 3, 2023 at 2:12 PM PGage wrote: > I don’t want to defend TV News, but I

I don’t want to defend TV News, but I think this is a bit harsh. Images of a past President arriving at federal court to be arraigned probably are newsworthy, and this particular defendant is unconventional enough that he could do or say anything at any point, so probably worth following him.

There is a major news event occurring today, and every televised news outlet is handling it the same way, which is to say wrongly. Each has their own hosts and their own pundits speculating and pontificating instead of reporting. They are operating under the assumption that a live shot outside the

Just wanted to again shout out Oatley’s work, this time in the Women’s WC. Her call of the Jamaica-Brazil match was just stellar (“And still Jamaica has not conceded”). I have now watched a lot more soccer, having seen every one of Arsenal’s PL matches this season, and still feel she is the
