Thanks for this… I think. I feel like this theme only works for me if, instead of being trapped on an island, I’m for some reason legally forced to drive around in an ice cream truck. And the abrupt ending is because I’ve chosen to drive that truck into a brick wall. On Fri, Feb 24, 2023 at 8:19

[TV orNotTV] Obscure Aged Brit Actor Quits BAFTA Over Awards

2023-02-24 Thread Mark Jeffries
While most of the controversy over this year's BAFTA awards (seen in the U.S. on BritBox) was another instance of #BAFTASoWhite when it came to the winners, 69-year-old Phil Davis, an actor with several notable credits but nothing that stands out, sent an angry tweet stating that because of

[TV orNotTV] 'Y' Writers Bloodbath

2023-02-24 Thread Mark Jeffries
As a cost-cutting move and a possible workaround if there is a WGA strike, "The Young and the Restless" showrunner Josh Griffith has fired the entire "breakdown" staff of writers, who take the general storyline directions from Griffith and his assistants and set up the structure of the daily

He admitted as such to Andrew Marchand (NY Post) Thursday... he'd be cohosting with Gayle King, per a Puck News report, tho WBD would have to lure her away from CBS... and it obviously couldn't conflict with his existing obligations at the organization they want you to stop calling Turner...

Not by Parker/Stone, but by WBD alleging Paramount pilfered episodes from HBOmax for Par+ whilst not changing the fees the former pays to licence them... they also allege they were undercut with MTV's $900M deal for longform SP properties that aren't considered 'episodes'... Par counters that
