Friday Link Roundup: November 6, 2009

3 days ago by petertypingfaster

A bunch of kvetching today. I blame it on the crappy weather. 1. The Atlantic takes another look at how 30 Rock’s lost its way. 30 Rock’s still a great show, but it’s been uneven as of late and could be a hell of a lot better. 2. The Watcher thinks that Mad Men isn’t the best show on television anym ...

Another reason why I'm not posting so much, besides the cutting back on surfing whilst at work, is that I feel like I'm getting a little repetitive with my whinging about money money money. We're closing out Year Three of our Second Salad Days, and while The Mister and I continue to tread water well ...

Microsoft, Family Guy and the PTC

11 days ago by petertypingfaster

For the launch of Windows 7 Microsoft decided they wanted to try to rebrand themselves a bit. Instead of the stuffy, older image that they’ve been projecting for years, they decided to try to horn in on Apple’s more youthful, male demographic. How did they decide to do this? By sponsoring a Seth McF ...

Ten Reasons Why Leno’s Killing NBC

12 days ago by petertypingfaster

I hate to keep piling on Jay Leno and NBC, but I do think that there are some very valuable lessons to be learned from what’s happened to the once proud peacock. It’s hard to believe, but they’ve taken a brand that represented excellence just ten years ago, and completely driven it into the ground. ...

Kurt Sutter on Network Execs

17 days ago by petertypingfaster

H/T to DMc again for bringing this awesome rant by Kurt Sutter (showrunner / creator of Sons of Anarchy, to my attention. It. Is. Gold. In fact, it’s so good that I’m gonna just go ahead and quote pretty much the whole thing. Here’s Kurt Sutter telling us “Why Most Network Scripted Dramas Suck:” Let ...

Tenacious Swan

Video West Side Story

K&K admits that from time to time—most of the time, actually—we neglect the “kudos” in our name and “kvetch” ourselves silly. Rather than being cathartic, we’ve found that kvetching breeds more kvetching—kind of like adding leather pants to your wardrobe. Pretty soon you’re wearing leather hats, lea ...

Parental Guidance Suggested

21 days ago by blaugra

My mom asked me to help with some pre-moving moving activities this weekend. Like, pack up and drive some boxes of bric-a-brac and whatnots to the new place. Me: What time do you want me there on Saturday? Mom: No, not Saturday. Your brother is helping on Saturday. Come on Sunday. Me: *sigh* Why not ...

Chaser : Why Chase Sucks

21 days ago by blaugra

I unreasonably hate Chase. One of my credit cards is with Chase. I started to rack up late fees because the grace period was getting shorter and shorter. Yes, they sent notices but who can keep track of every little detail? So I paid one late fee - $39. Then mailed the next bill in the nick of time, ...

NBC: The Little Dutch Boy of Broadcast Networks

27 days ago by petertypingfaster

Like much of the industry, I’m still trying to figure out what the news of NBC’s cancellation of Southland means for teevee creatives long term. It’s undeniably a blow to scripted television, and it’s made all the worse by the fact that the only scenario in which it makes sense is one that’s pretty ...
