Re: [TV orNotTV] Mini review: The Wheel

['David Bruggeman' via TVorNotTV]

 Kornacki also appears on "Football Night in America" so he might have a bad 
contract/needs the money.
I might have to take one for the list and see if the Blake Shelton/Carson Daly 
show "Barmageddon" is stupider than this apparent train wreck.

Re: [TV orNotTV] Mini review: The Wheel

[Jim Ellwanger]

I have a friend who worked as a researcher on the show, and he said they had a 
big problem with the originally scheduled celebrities dropping out at the last 
minute, which meant having to write a lot of new questions at the last minute 
for whatever replacements they could scrounge up.

Re: [TV orNotTV] Jeremy Clarkson "horrified" at pushback to his Meghan Markle tirade

[PGage]

I barely know who he is (I did try to watch Top Gear for a few episodes
several years ago and could not get what all the fuss was about.

But not sure I buy the Rickles analogy. It’s one thing to make watermelon
jokes about Sammy Davis Jr; but I don’t recall Don ever going on a rant
about, say, how much he hated Diahann Carroll when she was the first Black
woman to Star in her own sitcom, and talk about how much he would like to
see her get raped repeatedly like so many racists threatened to actually do
to her in the hate mail she received.

Re: [TV orNotTV] Jeremy Clarkson "horrified" at pushback to his Meghan Markle tirade

[Kevin M.]

Not going to defend Clarkson, but his entire career is built upon
antagonistic hyperbole. That’s his gimmick… to be bombastic and rude.  It’s
the Don Rickles concept expanded to include op-eds and motor-sports. He
says things deliberately to get a reaction, then gladly smiles and issues
empty apologies. He’s done this for decades. People keep giving him forums
to do it. And people keep reacting shocked when he does it, as if they were
expecting him to not do what he’s done for decades.

Re: [TV orNotTV] Jeremy Clarkson "horrified" at pushback to his Meghan Markle tirade

[PGage]

Wow. As is often the case, the half-assed apology is nearly as bad as the
original comment (only nearly because, Holy Cow the original comment was so
bad. Even in the context of the show, and how horrible a character she was,
that scene still felt difficult to watch).

I don’t care that much about any branch of the British Royal Family, but to
have and express this much focused and intense violent, sadistic hatred for
someone who at worst is a B cable television actress literally has no other
possible explanation than that the speaker is a monstrous misogynistic
racist. An apology that basically takes the form of “I’m sorry I used Game
of Thrones to express my racist misogyny” does more to confirm than excuse
the character of the man who uttered it.

Plus, I really like Nicola Sturgeon…
