What are some of your favorite examples of TV logic suddenly being slapped across the face by reality? Basically, the show making it look like it’s going to set up a dramatic story moment or the like, only to surprise the audience by showing how the real world actually works. For example, an episode of Murder, She Wrote called “Murder, According To Maggie”, shot while Angela Lansbury was taking a break from the show, which had a former student of…

Sitcoms that had terrible Writing But Worked Due To The Cast And The Characters

Sitcoms that had terrible Writing But Worked Due To The Cast And The Characters I Dream of Jeannie had likeable actors and characters and had a fun premise, set design and great props. The writing was often not strong, and they had problems with continuity, but the cast did a great job of using their personal chemistry to fill in for the weak spots in the scripts, and that’s why the show remains likeable today. Veronica’s C…

Your favorite ornery/prickly characters in TV?

Your favorite ornery/prickly characters in TV? Hi. Hope you’re all doing well. For me, Dr. Gregory House was such a captivating, flawed character for several seasons on House despite the fact he is constantly insulting and degrading his subordinates, patients, bosses, women… everyone, really. I won’t spoil it by going into specifics as a recent show, but Jackson Lamb on Slow Horses also fits…

Any news or info on Paper Empire?

Any news or info on Paper Empire? The last thread I can find on Paper Empire (starring Robert Davi among others) is from 11 months ago, saying that they were currently filming season 3 despite season 1 not being out yet. From what I can tell, season 1 is still not out. Does anyone know what’s going on with it? Is it just some mad scam? The people involved do sound, well, dodgy s…

Ving Rhames gives his own Golden Globe to Jack Lemmon on stage. One of the more wholesome moments at a Hollywood event. Rhames and Jack Lemmon were two of the nominees for their work on TV movies that year (Rhames for his portrayal as Don King, Lemmon for his work on the 12 Angry Men remake from George C. Scott). Rhames won, and called Lemmon up to the stage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk3EgDPZD0w s…

People who DIDN’T like “Nobody Wants This”

People who DIDN’T like “Nobody Wants This” Can we please gather here? What did you dislike about it? And if you liked it, I love that for you! Genuinely. I can’t quite pinpoint why this show fell so flat for me. Part of it might be my expectations—everyone RAVED about this show so I was expecting to be blown away. It felt very…surface level? And honestly not very romantic, at all? I wa…
