  1. Among the weird things abt old Hanna-Barbera cartoons: the laugh track. Imagining a tiny cartoon studio audience.
  2. @Stuart_Zechman I haven't, but I'm going to now. Thanks.
  3. HIMYM Watch: She Was a Big-Boned Gal from Southern Alberta http://bit.ly/h0kQ
  4. Blog post: How Sesame Street Taught Kids to Watch TV--http://bit.ly/eGoMt
  5. @JayAckroyd ...as opposed to some universal principle opposing partisanship or ideology among cable hosts.
  6. @JayAckroyd I wrote it. It's a fair snark. My point, tho, is not to draw equiv b/w Fox/MSNBC, but to remind that WH is acting politically...
  7. Should I be disturbed by how beautiful these photos make the Pacific Garbage Patch look? http://bit.ly/3SseKJ
  8. In middle of restoring iPhone. Had to look up hourly weather forecast on computer. Like a caveman.
  9. rt @mashable From Twitter to TV: Sh*t My Dad Says Gets CBS Deal - http://bit.ly/13b6a1 // or, How I Met Your Mother, the kids' perspective.
  10. RT @televisionary: My exclusive interview with Matt Weiner about the #MadMen season finale (and S3) over at the Daily Beast: http://is.g ...
  11. @weinmanj Probably true in general, but I think of Sopranos, e.g., not as a '90s drama but as a break from '90s dramas.
  12. @HitFixDaniel Yeah, I just mean, *if I have to pick one decade,* not sure which. Likewise, have to discount Sopranos b/c s1 was '99, right?
  13. Complicating my which-decade-to-put-Buffy-in problem: I loved season 6, which I understand a lot of fans didn't.
  14. @HitFixDaniel But F&G aired only 5 eps in 1999; and its last 4 or 5 were probably its best.
  15. Other top-10 dilemma: best TV of the decade. Was Buffy a best-of-00s or best-of-90s? Freaks & Geeks?
  16. Poring over prelim top-10 lists. Getting the first 8 always easy. Narrowing down last 2 always impossible.
  17. Re Harris' piece: "If NCIS can get 20M viewers, imagine what money and innovation can do." I'm guessing maybe 10M? http://bit.ly/1y5J2D
  18. Mark Harris' sharp take on NBC: "We're not even going to pretend like we're trying anymore." http://bit.ly/2fHYLj
  19. 3 mins into a lengthy reader voicemail about, I think, seat belts: "This is just one of many things I'm calling about..."
  20. Best Mad Men headline award goes to... @moryan! http://bit.ly/3nuwRc
