Re: [TV orNotTV] Tucker's Gone At FNC

the parallels between real life Fox News and the storyline of Succession the past few weeks is remarkable. Some tweets by funny randos online are referring to Mattson making changes before he even formally controls the network. On Mon, Apr 24, 2023 at 12:09 PM Adam Bowie wrote: > I am

I had been catching up on Night Court (2023) episodes the past week. I'm currently listening to cable news about the arraignment in NYC today. I can't help but think Dan Fielding will be on the defense team. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups
