Newsbusted v Scott Ott

While I still always watch, and sometimes she gets off a really good one, this show has lost some of its luster for us. The heavy-handed laugh track has become quite tiresome, when it isn't actually repulsive. She could expand her repertoire of delivery from just snark, especially on the more sombre matters. For those reasons, 'round our house, we've come to prefer Scott Ott's reports. But it's all good to have 'em all out there!

Post-Hollywood Theater

The ubiquity of videotech and Internet spells the end of Television as we knew it. I haven't had a TV, no tuner, no antenna, cable, or dish, in years. The creativity available online is astonishing and bountiful. In similar fashion, the dominance of theaters by Hollywood is being eroded by the independent producers. Movies aren't really dead.
