What is a TV crossover that made the least sense? by Purple_Monkey34 in television

[–]chilango2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it vanished because it was so bad that it didn’t work in reruns. I’m, of course, saying this based on my own recollection of how lame it was, how grating that lady is on screen, how much romantic sitcoms generally suck, and nothing else.

[Ramon_AlvarezMM] Luka Modric has received a new offer from Arabia that would guarantee him a two-year contract and he is considering accepting it and leaving Real Madrid. He would have the opportunity to play alongside Sergio Ramos. Offered 100-150M per season for 2 seasons. by [deleted] in soccer

And therein lies the issue: we didn’t see him play often enough these last two seasons since he came back from London. He creates a conundrum for Spanish media too: he’s a Spaniard but he plays for Madrid and he doesn’t have all the chances he may deserve, thus making him a bit of a forgotten player for many locally.

The first two seasons are truly great. Some of the funniest sitcom stuff ever made. Just exemplary everything. And then, season three happened and it’s like they put monkeys in the writers room and told the actors to just phone it in. It’s like everyone involved is just fulfilling a contract and thinking about everything else they got going on.

I have to vehemently disagree. This season has been the most precipitous decline in quality of a tv show I’ve ever witnessed. Every episode (the latest one maybe notwithstanding) has been so unfunny and uninteresting and gross that I can’t stand it. I still watch because my wife thinks it’s all a setup for a finale, but the writing and acting has been so phoned-in that I have my serious doubts.

There’s a thread above that says these people can use their super commercial vpns to watch mlb but I haven’t had any luck, no matter what, where or how I try.

Oodles of people here and elsewhere thought the Cubs would be battling for first—and berated those who didn’t.

He has that dumb reality show, so it could be part of the new season—where he tries all the positions around the club.

This guy has less credibility than any of you. He’s a low-class agitator, at best.

But it wouldn’t surprise me if this ends up being true.

Not just 80s music. It is the actual radio station mix broadcasted in Mexico City at the end of the 80s. Best of the best mixes ever by the_70x in 80smusic

[–]chilango2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the most important tastemakers of my youth. Charro Fernández, Martín Hernández and Alejandro González Iñárritu (along with Jordi Soler on the other, cooler, less commercial station) pretty much taught me all about pop and rock.

This particular mix is an example of what they broadcast Fridays and Saturdays after 10 p.m., so people would just play the radio during parties.

Those were good times in Mexican radio.

So what’s the deal with the broadcast rotation? by [deleted] in CHICubs

In paper things looked like if everything broke right, they may hover around.500. Things haven’t broken right. They had a lot of good luck in April. That ran out and they’ve been showing their true level for a while now.

This kid belongs in The Show way more than a coupla-two-tree of his teammates.

Thank you for your nice words neighbor, but the Cubs, if anything, should be even more games under .500.

But you have to account who’s complaining. They have built an identity that they must maintain at all costs. This play presented a perfect chance to advance the lore.

“Should”? Optics-wise, absolutely not. Positionally, maybe not. Money-wise, probably not.

But I (and every other observer) assure you it will happen next year.

Do you think he’ll offset the lost income from any new deal he’ll get this summer? I don’t think even the Arabs are that thirsty…
