Cardiff Springsteen show was phenomenal. Insane setlist, and I got within ten feet or so of the man himself, a personal record!
The Simpsons appears to be leaving Sky One permanently this November. I wrote about it briefly here: wesleymead.wordpress.com/202…

Question: How do these shows that will seemingly never get cancelled deal w/a main cast members death? And I don't just mean the Simpsons, in the 4 shows combined there are only 4 actors younger than 50 (which isn't old, but isn't exactly young, y'know?)

I wrote about Neil Gaiman, and the women accusing him of sexual assault, coercion and abuse. vulture.com/article/neil-gai…

The Simpsons moving new linear broadcasts to E4 from Sky is interesting. Most of the attention has been on the fact C4 will no longer be airing the show (though despite the implications of the press release from C4, they will be, though only on weekends)..
.. and the “end of the era” of 6pm broadcasts (notwithstanding it's been 6:30pm on C4 for over a year now). But the real story is that, for the first time, paying Sky money won’t be the way to see Simpsons first…
This Christmas Day, there isn't a single episode of The Simpsons being broadcast on UK television. First time since 1994, I believe. Thirty-year streak broken. Feels somehow appropriate it's the same Christmas as Disney+'s first exclusive streaming-exclusive episode of the show.
First the Vulture shoutout, now headlining a DVD cover.. a banner week for @vicmmic. (Round and Round is probably the greatest Hallmark movie ever??)

Our beloved chinchilla, Toothy, passed away yesterday. He was nearly 15 years old. He was the most wonderful pet we ever could have hoped for, friendly, loving and adorable.
I Saw the TV Glow is the best movie I have watched in a long time, a moving and powerful exploration of gender, identity and the true self, and a paean to the magic of formative television, and Grace’s piece on it is superb

Last night at @PaulWilliams_12 album launch show (w/ guests James Acaster, @Rose_Matafeo, @MrNishKumar and Sam Campbell). Unreal crowd/atmosphere, Paul on absolutely incredible form.. the new album (release date “later this summer”..) is fantastic. @ChoniMead
I talked about Kenan Thompson’s autobiography with Adam and Aaron, check it out!
The book club is back! Adam, Aaron & Wesley gather round Kenan's new book (When I Was Your Age: Life Lessons, Funny Stories & Questionable Parenting Advice from a Professional Clown) and talk about it's many pages and contents therein.

After years of putting it off, I uploaded ten episodes of Nickelodeon sitcom Noah Knows Best, the English audio of which was considered lost media, to YouTube: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL… @televisionaryZW
