Old movie and TV weirdo.
I wrote Sony's getTV blog for 6 years, created “Game Show Insider” for GameShowNetwork.com, was an arts reporter for the NYC weekly The Villager for 3 years, and have contributed to Slate, 4 books, and many blogs and podcasts.
- MAX is changing its name back to HBO Max, as genius David Zaslav remembers HBO's half a century of brand equity. It's "not everything for everyone," he said, which is a worrisome sales pitch. www.thewrap.com/hbo-max-name... #Streaming #FilmSky
- I wish somebody had written a spinoff series of THE KILLERS (1946) called THE BRIGHT BOYS. William Conrad and Charles McGraw knock off a different guy in every movie w/ bad attitudes and witty banter. #TCMParty #NoirAlley #TheKillers
- A musical! #NoirAlley #TCMParty
- 🎶 "They all come here and eat the big dinner!" 🎶
- Why not!
- Valerie Harper won her first Emmy as Rhoda Morgenstern #OTD in 1971. She was nominated 8 years in a row — for both MARY TYLER MOORE and the spin-off RHODA — and won 4 times. 📸 w/ James L. Brooks, co-creator of both shows, who was #BOTD. #TVSky
- Warner Bros. Discovery is moving towards a potential breakup, splitting off its "declining cable TV assets" which are losing thousands of subscribers each year. One of those "declining" assets is TCM. www.reuters.com/business/med... #FilmSky #TCMParty
- Warner Archive has been releasing beautifully restored classic films on Blu-ray since 2012. Now they’re mining that library of restorations for 24 new collections — 2-3 per month at $40 for 4 films. First up in June: Elizabeth Taylor, Clark Gable, and Gary Cooper. #FilmSky #PhysicalMedia
