Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

President Biden will address the nation tonight from the Oval Office for the final time tonight. I just can’t believe we’re handing the country back over to that fucking felon. ANYWAY. The address is scheduled to last about 20 minutes, so your shows will be pushed back by about that much, just be aware.

IMPORTANT.

Severance returns this week (FINALLY), and to promote the return, the cast appeared in a pop-up office in the center of Grand Central Station in New York City yesterday.

M. Night Shyamalan and Apple TV+ are in court, where they are being sued by a filmmaker who claims they stole the idea for Servant from her film, The Truth About Emanuel.

I need to know who was racist to Keke Palmer on Scream Queens. (It was Lea Michele, wasn’t it? My money is on Lea Michele.)

Sorry, it’s unlikely that there will be a 9-1-1 and Rookie crossover, because once you establish both shows exist in the same universe, where do the crossovers end, you know? How would these two groups who are essentially in the same business not be bumping into each other all the time?

Antiques Roadshow is going on the road to celebrate its 30th season. It will be visiting: Savannah, GA; St. Louis, MO; Salt Lake City, UT; Boothbay, ME; and Charlevoix, MI.

All My Children had a reunion/celebration of its premiere 55 years ago, and we learned that they originally drafted a happy ending for its characters, only to have the rights to the show be sold to that ill-conceived internet venture, so they had to end it on a dumb cliffhanger. We also learned that Erica’s favorite husband was one Jackson Montgomery.

I’m not buying it, Chock.

Sheinelle Jones is taking a leave of absence from The Today Show to deal with a family health matter. Here’s hoping everyone is well soon.

Late night had some thoughts on Pete Hegseth’s confirmation hearing: “A drunk, a cheating husband and an accused sexual predator walk into a bar,” Colbert said. “And the bartender says, ‘Table for one, Mr. Hegseth?’” 

The Washington Post is cratering thanks to Jeff Bezos’ decision to kowtow to Former President Authoritarian-Elect. “Perhaps most concerning for the paper is that its web traffic has “cratered,” as Semafor reported this week. The paper has gone from about 22.5 million daily active users in early 2021 to 2.5-3 million by mid-2024, according to internal metrics.” GEE, I WONDER WHY, JEFF.

The Sussexes heard what you said about them, Justine Bateman, and would like you to shut your trap.
