Well this doesn't fit with the billion think pieces written about this show last month

All the deities of the major religions could agree to put on a live performance of Hamilton on every single tv channel and streaming service for free and NCIS would still get more viewers.

Worth it. I binged all ten episodes this morning. It's a shot of 80's nostalgia right in the arm while telling it's own story. By the end I was a little on the fence about who to cheer/root for.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
Just found out they're bringing back the Karate Kid in a series following the villain as a hero and the heroes become a prick.

I never watched the movie but this TV series looks like a piece of poo poo.

One of my high school teachers dated one of the RvB guys, and I met a few of them at a viewing of season 1 at a local theater way back in the day

Yeah its pretty crazy how they blew up, although they've kinda petered off a bit maybe? RvB was by far their best thing and now that Halo is dead...

Now they produce anime featuring four young girls fighting monsters. I never got into it but it was popular with my college clubs.

Probably true but realistically Roseanne's gonna experience a natural drop as curiosity about it dies down and it becomes just the actual show's audience. How big that audience will end up being in the long run, I have no idea, but clearly a lot of people were watching early on because of nostalgia and controversy. That doesn't last.

True to the movie then as Daniel was consistently portrayed as an rear end in a top hat in each of the films. Just not as big of one comparatively.

On Youtube? Yes.

They periodically offer free trials for Play Music. I got 4 months for free recently. Just check on the play.google.com once in a while and the promo should be at the top of the page.

What I find funny about Youtube Red, and maybe this is just my experience, but whenever I go on Youtube... I wouldn't even know that a "Red" version existed. It's like they're actively trying to fail. Haven't seen many ads or anything anywhere else either.

He wants to tour much more and this lets him do that. They are also going to put his entire catalog of late night shows (including NBC ones) online.

The only thing that could make that Conan announcement better is if they said they were going to cut the interview portions and the monologue to make it happen. Just give Conan and Andy a video podcast and occasionally have dumb sketches interrupt.

That, or get rid of the writers so we can get back to that '08 writers strike goodness.

Yes, Monty Oum passed away. It's actually very tragic. He went in for a routine surgery. Nothing too important or severe. He had a bad reaction to the anesthetic and he died. It really came out of nowhere. He just got married a year ago. It really was a hit to everyone, even the fans of the company. He was one of the faces of the company. A lot of people knew him. He was very present on social media and appeared on their podcast often. It was sad.

They even did an irish funeral podcast for him where a few of his friends broke the news to the fans then got drunk and spent the whole time talking about their time with him before they abruptly ended it.

His brother replaced him on the show since he voiced one of the secondary characters and they promoted his assistant to head of animation.

I mean I didn't dislike anything. That was funny as were a lot of things.

Actually thinking about it I probably feel like it would be a BETTER sitcom than a movie. Because I think my big issue was that it wasn't really funny enough or build enough to sustain my interest for 90 minutes. It felt a lot like a bunch of random episodes from the middle of a season of some show.

So I guess this is a good move that could boost my opinion.
