joethefoodie Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Not to change the subject too much, but I go to watch the (Mets') game last night, and of course I can't find it on the many channels we buy. Oh - it's on Apple TV+. Appears as if Apple TV+ has purchased the rights to broadcast a number of MLB games on Friday nights. I have never heard such inane chatter during the game. Then knowing the playoffs are coming up for hockey, I'm wondering how I can watch Rangers' games (they're on MSGgo or something). Oh -- I can't, unless I switch how we currently watch the minimal amount of broadcast TV we actually watch from YouTube TV to FUBO. And, of course, pay more. Fuck. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have gotten fed up with all these channels. How many do they really think people can afford or want to have! It seems like every time I get into a show, the next season is on a channel we don't get. Really irritates me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wilfrid Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 The Hawks and the Sparrows. Pasolini among the birds, including an annoying talking crows. Heavy politics and inspired clowning. (Criterion) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StephanieL Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Having Showtime On Demand available at my hotel, a channel I don't subscribe too, allowed me to watch documentaries on John Belushi and The Go-Go's, as well as one on a show that ran on NYC public access for years and years and which I'm embarrassed to say that I'd never heard of: Video Music Box. It featured anybody and everybody in the world of rap and hip-hop, plus it covered and threw epic parties and live shows. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's one on WLIR which you should watch if you want to reminisce about the New Wave scene in the '80s. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hollywood Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Watched the first 2 episodes of the final season of "Better Call Saul." It does not disappoint. The usual characters are present. The creators manage to keep things exciting (usually involving violent deaths) and at the same time keep the narrative on track to segue into "Breaking Bad." Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StephanieL Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Wes Anderson's latest, The French Dispatch, which is his love letter to The New Yorker. All of the little dioramas and details and such that I thought worked really well in The Grand Budapest Hotel and Isle of Dogs came off as really twee here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
