It’s pretty easy to find reasons to dislike David Ellison, especially in the wake of his recent draconian op-eds and surreptitious meetings with his trusted allies at Paramount Skydance where it was discovered that he’s plotting to take his talents–more importantly, those of the remaining creatives and decision-makers he hasn’t already jettisoned or already has
A Light At The End Of A Tunnel?
If you happen to be one of the obsessives who declare themselves fans of a “CU”, of late those letters have had the word “latah” follow them. We already mused yesterday about how modest Disney’s ROI on its MCU has been this year (bearing in mind Sony reaps the majority of the immediate benefits on
OK, Superfans. It’s Apparently Now Up To You.

Blue Skies And Pigeons Were Meant For Each Other
With all of the other distractions I’ve been experiencing of late–and I don’t need to regurgitate how it spiraled out of control yesterday–I completely missed the fact that last Friday night the USA Network debuted a brand new spanking new scripted original, the second of its eight episodes actually premiering tonight at 10 PM ET

NOTE: This musing also appears today on our sister site THE DOUBLE OVERTIME. Please visit it regularly for coverage of sports of all sorts plus occasional essays on business and technology. It was not a bad weekend at all for females who am comfortable with bats and balls. And no, smartass, I don’t mean either
Get Ready For AI-Witness News
For a seasoned and passionate TV news afficiando this past week’s headlines have been more than a little gut-wrenching. I admit I got a tad emotional when I saw this item from THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS’ Brian Niemietz burn up my timeline: News anchor Kaity Tong is retiring from PIX11 after nearly 35 years of
