Re: Bernie?

Seems like Bernie gets maybe three minutes each at 6:00 and 11:00...when he's on, that is. He's been off air for the last week or so, without any explanation that I'm aware of. And Jamie Edmonds is off too (maternity leave, maybe?), so they've pressed the recently-added Hobie Artigue into action, w...

Re: Review of this year's Detroit Auto Show

Took a trip to Cobo - err TCF - err Huntington Place early this evening. Be prepared to pay out the ass for parking if you park at Huntington Place or across the street on the north side Congress. I had to pay $20 just to park. Honestky, I pretty much always expect to pay at least $20 when I head d...

What ever happened to Ankles?

He was in at least a couple bits, but no mention of him.
I noticed he was missing too. I had wondered about that, thought that was strange. Was Dana Mills on the show at all? I didn’t recall her being there, but maybe I missed her.

Re: Hmmm,is the news drought at CBS62 about to come to an end?

Why do I feel like this thread about the 62 news might last longer than the newscast eventually will? Once it starts, someday. Eventually. Supposedly. My 85-year old dad loves the news though. Between Fox 2 and Local 4, he will watch 12 hours about storm coverage. He’ll probably watch this one too. ...

Re: WXYZ Woodward dream cruise

It’s a public street. Couldn’t any channel simply show the darn thing, make a TV special out of it? That's a good point. It's interesting to think about which events get coverage and on which channels. It at least used to be true that the NAIAS charity preview was covered live by both 4 and 7 at th...

Re: Big Ten talk

Kinda surprised OSU was challenged, but they will get better offensively for sure. OSU surprised me too. They did not look that good for 3 quarters. But I still fully expect them to become their usual selves. Still though, I anticipated more from them. There is a tiny part of me that is starting to...

Re: WXYZ Woodward dream cruise

For years channel 7 has not figured out that the WDC is about the cars and people, they have tried singing contest's and all kinds of other stunts to keep from covering the Cruise. It might be nice if another network tried to take this away from 7. It’s a public street. Couldn’t any channel simply ...

It's always amusing the obsession some MSU fans seem to have with UM. It's almost like hating on UM is way more important than whatever is going on with their own team.
I went to neither school, but…
Yes, it’s so true. The MSU obsession with UM is kind of creepy.

Re: Brian Williams leaving MSNBC

Ditching cable this week and picking up ESPN+ and calling it good. My only concern is some of these football games going streaming only. I find myself watching far less sports now. I know I could go out and find everything streaming somewhere. But lately I find myself not even caring enough to do t...

Re: WXYZ Woodward dream cruise

The live telecast of the NAIAS charity preview, which I believe usually airs on channel 4, is even more vapid than channel 7's Dream Cruise broadcast. How about the 2-hour pre show to the Freedom Festival fireworks? The corporate interviews are like clockwork. Blue Cross Blue Shield, ally bank, Gar...

Re: Brian Williams leaving MSNBC

I would have never pegged Brian Williams a late-night host. It is just a matter of time before all hosts be femmes. As far as the late night exits, I know it's been quite some time, and much of the true talent has already exited... still, I wonder whatever happened to that weirdo Craig Ferguson? In...

... Corden and Kimmel are stepping down soon. Something I did not know. I know Corden is but I think Kimmel will stick around. Every year Kimmel keeps claiming he is burned out, and might quit soon. Then he has a bunch of guest hosts in the summer. But then he keeps coming back. Not sure if he is g...

Re: Brian Williams leaving MSNBC

He is a funny guy, and I think he would make a decent late night host. Corden and Kimmel are stepping down soon. In the book, The War For Late Night by Bill Carter, this was mentioned. NBC gave consideration to giving Brian Williams the Late Night program when Conan was taking over The Tonight Show.

What if the BIG 10 championship game was USC vs. UCLA? With the game being played in Indianapolis. Damn, that's something I never considered! :shock: They'd most likely be in the same division, but still.... I could see them moving the game around a bit more. The Big 10 did a couple of their basket...
