Golden Bachelor, "winner" engaged, to wed Jan 4th 2024

Bob Jersey <bobj...@ptd.net>: Apr 14 05:19AM -0700 The union only lasted a few weeks. They went on GMA to announce their split. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/golden-bachelor-divorce-1235872921/ (link) B   Moi, Jan 3rd 2024:   Meet the officiant for the wedding, from the Philly burbs... passing resemblance to another well-known reality star... https://www.mcall.com/2024/01/03/delaware-countys-susan-noles-a-former-contestant-will-officiate-the-golden-bachelor-wedding-on-abc/ (link)

True Detective 4 [Was Quickie Review: Monsieur Spade]

PGage <pga...@gmail.com>: Apr 14 07:51AM -0700 Just finished TD4, which I was only able to do through sheer stubbornness and accessing my deep streak of ICD completism.   I have a high tolerance for the baked in weaknesses of this series, but season 4 seemed to be intentionally trying to be bad so hard it was just insulting and obnoxious. It does get somewhat less bad in the last few episodes, it is unable to recover from the accumulated weight of its badness overall.   I was shocked after to read that this season is highly regarded by critics and the public. WTF?   I don’t dislike Jodie Foster, who can be good to very good, and I thought was the only redeeming part of the otherwise awful “Nyad”. But, while not the weakest link, she was part of the problem here. For me, prototypical of the shows weaknesses was her “Ask the Question/Wrong Question” schtick. After the first episode, my question, every time she said that, screamed at the top of my voice: “Why is this show so bad?”     On Tue, 16 Jan 2024 at 1:30 AM 'Dave Sikula' via TVorNotTV <

Tom Wolper <two...@gmail.com>: Apr 14 01:06PM -0400 I started watching it back in January and gave up after a few episodes. I found that the series is all about creepy vibes and they had no intention of making a tight, satisfying mystery. When I found I didn’t care who done it or whether they would figure it out, I bailed. I spent a number of decades so sensitive to the horror genre that I would immediately turn off any show or movie that used horror elements. I’ve watched enough movies in the last couple of years, including some horror movies, that I’ve become much less sensitive. When horror scenes popped up in TD I wasn’t repelled but I didn’t feel they added to the mystery, they just made for more creepy vibes.
