Re: WDIV, Jeopardy and MeTV. Still can't get it right.

Friday night. Channel 4 has two subchannels devoted to the goddess of trailer parks and one airing a cornfield football rivalry. Yet another is airing an episode of M.A.S.H. that we've seen only a dozen times. I saw a fraction of a second of the Double Jeopardy! board on ch. 4.4, followed by a 2 ...

Re: Brother Stair on WCXI right now

Birach is bar none the worst radio broadcaster of all time. The worst. I'm listening to WPON's transmitter randomly go on and off right now. Steve Bridges' (KCJJ) theory of broadcasting devolution: the end times involve a computer and a transmitter in a windowless, cinder block building, playing ...

Weather forecasts: a very expensive version of a homeless person speculating possible paths of an empty plastic shopping bag in expressway traffic.

If you're an OTA tv viewer and this face makes you involuntarily hit the mute button, she and Joe Namath should disappear soon.

Re: Triple Jeopardy

WDIV, not "NBC," made the error in running the incorrect show, and cutting the Final. Jeopardy is syndicated, not network, programming. The producers have already got the show sequence set into January, after Trebek's last show. A friend in the Boston market confirmed that we had the wrong show ...
