BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

I’m not likening the end of TVWW’s 14-year run to the end of life as we knew it… Where daily newspapers and magazines were once the nexus of TV criticism, it seems fair to say this is another reminder that a torch is passing...(continued)

THIS IS THE END, MY FRIENDS, AND YET NOT THE END

I did not have a TV when I grew up. The family moved from city to city, country to country — a life on the road, constantly on the move. I have vague recollections of Doctor Who playing — in flickering black-and-white — in a tiny room in a tiny house during one early childhood memory, but I don't remember much about it, except that I'm pretty sure that incarnation of the Doctor was played by Jon Pertwee and I was terrified of the Daleks...(continued)

CHEERS TO THE CONTENT CREATORS

By now, way too many TV memories are taking up space in my mind.

They leave little room for anything else, except movie plots and Cubs' batting averages. But one vivid memory is basic – a show in which a man simply played records...(continued)

TVWW AND LUCILLE BALL: TRUE ORIGINALS

There has never been a showcase for smart television criticism quite like TVWW...I may never have to get used to a world without I Love Lucy, but I can't say the same about TVWW. I'm going to have to get used to that. Sort of...(continued)

TV WORTH WATCHING GAVE US A FRONT ROW SEAT

For me, David Bianculli on "Best TV Tomorrow" was TV Worth Watching.

It was fun streaming along, seeing if David knew what day it was, watching him build to a terrible pun. Every show ending with that Mickey Rooney grin. It was a minute or two with a friend, delivered every day to my inbox. For free!...(continued)

plumbing service

I was so impressed with the plumbing services I received from [Company Name]! They were prompt, professional, and very knowledgeable. The technician arrived on time, diagnosed the issue quickly, and completed the repair efficiently. The price was reasonable, and they cleaned up after themselves. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of plumbing services.

In today’s fast-paced world, online shopping has become an integral part of our daily lives. People want convenience, variety, and value without sacrificing quality. For many, **Amazon shopping** has been the go-to option for years. However, with the rise of new e-commerce platforms, shoppers are beginning to explore alternatives that offer more personalized experiences and unique products. **https://deehaven.com** is one such platform, standing out as a smart, customer-friendly competitor to Amazon.

Y'all won't believe this, but the past few weeks I have watching, almost exclusively, The Three Stooges?!?!!!

Wow, those 3 (or 4 or 5) are pure genius.

I recommend that my legion of fans revist this classic slapstick comedy. Like me, you will be ROTFLMFAO !!! hahaha

Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk,
