Like, holy shit

This is genuine police-state shit

They arrested this crew right in the middle of their live coverage

I've never seen this before in my life

Its not like they would run out of content either. They have 30 years of absolute nonsense to dish out. Ditch everything and go back to music videos and ridiculous music specials. They would have the highest viewed channel because people are bored out of their minds at home and it would be such a throwback. Between old and new content they would never even have to repeat a thing. It would be wild.

Edit:

The comments on this are hilarious. A couple things, yeah YouTube exists but YouTube blows. I loved YouTube back in the day and I still use it but man the ads everywhere, even with adblockers, is fucking lame. And I'm not paying for their premium. You used to be able to go on YouTube and discover new music easily, but the amount of looping the content you've previously seen is almost unavoidable and pathetic.

I also feel that a lot of people don't remember what its like to discover new music on a constant shuffle without repeats. Sometimes you catch something you like, sometimes yo

The Netflix documentary Tiger King and that bitch Carol Baskin became worldwide memes during the COVID19 pandemic. By now, the dust has started to settle, and a number of critical pieces are questioning the documentary's framing of Carol Baskin.

In the sea of morally depraved characters within the show, Baskin, a globally recognized big cat conservationist with an interesting past, has become the principal target of internet vitriol that has started to spill over into real life, as it often does. An article exploring this situation has hit the front page of /r/television, and some users have drawn parallels between Carol Baskin, Hillary Clinton, and Skyler White (a Breaking Bad character that attracted a perplexing amount of undeserved hate). With misogyny emerging as the common thread between these parallels, some redditors have taken upon themselves to discredit this theory.

As the league grapples with potentially reopening in order to hold a postseason, it has to consider the enormous financial ramifications of what canceling the season might mean. > > According to The Athletic's Sam Amick, approximately $900 million in television revenue would be lost if the NBA canceled the playoffs.

After years of neglecting the genre, I finally dove head first into animated programs when Avatar hit Netflix last month. Like many of you, I was quickly blown away by the quality of writing and the overall story. I knew The Legend of Korra existed but many had said that it pales somewhat in comparison to ATLA and although excited to spend more time in that world, I approached LoK with some hesitation. However, now having finished both shows, I am genuinely not sure which I enjoy more and it feels like comparing apples and oranges.

ATLA impressed me with its ability to tell that incredible story and flesh out three dimensional characters while fitting within the mold of children's television. By most regards, it "played by the rules."

LoK basically pushed every boundary it could and the show is all the better for it. It is a world of consequences, death, and terror which allows for Korra to experience and suffer through quite a bit more than any children's program character would ev

I hate to even make comparisons at this moment because I’m still processing the gorgeously crafted themes. But MY GOD. I had avoided this show for years based off of inaccurate biases.

Unbelievable. So well crafted. An absolute jewel.

The Duggars have once again proven to be sleazy, lying liars who lie, and there's more gaslighting going on than in London in the 1880s, but today, we can find out more things about them (that may or may not be true, but hey, we're gonna find things out!). Today it's time for the Duggar Master Schedule.

The original Duggar Master Schedule is a wall of post-its on a door in their dining room, a column each for Mom&Dad and the children. I thought I was a little obsessed with post-its in different colors, but, uh... look for yourself.

[Schedule 1. Gotta put your child's age on top of the list with their names, so you can actually remember how old they are and how much Sister Mom-ing they're supposed to do. But then don't update the list, and now their ages are outdated.](https://preview.redd.it/ax4ky8pmvh351.jpg?width=1407&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4df41682914d98de2a

Not to mention a fantastic person all around and an inspiration to millions of people.

But Hartley Sawyer tweeted some offensive jokes, so he deserves to never work in Hollywood, or anywhere else, ever again. He definitely could never change, never in a million years, and most definitely has not changed at all. That would be impossible.

Where do I begin with this train wreck/dumpster fire?

1. Clay, who had a mental breakdown during the active shooter drill, admits that he has a disassociative disorder to his parents, and they react as if he just told them that he likes to masturbate in the shower??? How clueless can these people be? They should have immediately admitted him to the hospital for intensive treatment, not sent him off to school and the prom.

2. Winston knows Monty for five minutes, and in Season 4, he suddenly becomes a crusader for him and Bryce. WTF? Why? He didn't even know Bryce. His character made NO SENSE and was just added to introduce yet another attractive gay character to the show.

3. Ani is suddenly pining for Jessica? What? Since when? Did the writers realize that they had made more than half the males on the show gay, and forgot to include some lesbians?

4. Was the prom a fantasy sequence? Charlie and Alex get prom queen and king after being a couple for ten minutes, and the football te

For quite a while now in pop culture we see tons of example of “teens” being hyper sexualized. To me it comes to no surprise we have such a problem in Hollywood and in our “elite” societies. I get that they aren’t actually teenagers on screen but the characters are supposed to be and that seems to be toeing the line way too close. This isn’t to say teenagers aren’t sexual beings in nature but damn if adults need to any part of that other than strictly education.

Teenagers have sex, yes we all know that, you can talk about it in the show, you can allude to it, but actively portraying it – to the point where you have to hire adult actors for it to be legal – is straight up weird. If it's necessary to the plot, its fine, but for most of the time its unnecessary filler to pull watchers in.

The sheer amount of these scenes in TV is what makes it creepy. What's worse is that people eat that shit up, and they love it. Seriously odd.

Seriously AppleTv, this entire cast, the writing, the cinematography and score was brilliant...EVERY BIT OF IT! Thank you.

Between a lead in Married...with Children, Futurama, Sons of Anarchy, 8 Simple Rules... as well as roles in Lost and Shameless. Now she looks to have a prominent role in The Conners, and even plans to be starring in an upcoming ABC Erin Brockovich-inspired show. Who else has a resume spanning this long with this many roles in prominent television?

Five minutes, give or take. What do you think were the greatest moments of television? What 5± minutes of TV do you think were so monumentally great it stopped you in your tracks and thought, "This is it. This is THE show to be watching."

One of the of course is Ozymandias and the famous ASAC Hank Schrader: https://youtu.be/28kofqHQg6k
