By all accounts, Raymond Burr was a great guy and he certainly was a great television star, but I’d be surprised if a single word of this article is true. For the press, Burr made up a lot of stories, including a dead son, two dead wives, and service in the U.S. Navy. It’s hard to blame the guy.

I wasn't all that fond of the new series, but I respect that the people who made it had respect for those who came before them.

Skip was the best. If a fielder made 3 putouts or 3 assists in an inning, he would announce they had “tied a record held by many.”

Thinking about the successful Wheel Play the Dodgers pulled off last night and remembering how Skip Caray used to make fun of that play on Braves broadcasts, saying something like, “And for 4500th time in Major League history, a team attempts the Wheel Play, and for the 4500th time, it fails.”

This episode has a great teaser back in the days when television writers knew how to create great teasers.

Tonight's Episode: @tonightsepisode.bsky.social · 2d

Titlecard from the television program HAWAII FIVE-O*. Colour shot taken from outside** of a chainlink fence, looking slightly down through the branches and foliage of several indigenous trees and past *another* fence or fenced-in area of indefinable purpose to a forking road or highway where a distant unremarkable dark coloured sedan approaches. In the distance, the shadows of low rising mountains against a partially cloudy sky.

Overlaid in yellow block letters with noticeable black drop shadow, "The Devil and Mr. Frog."

*(original Leonard Freeman Productions variant, 1960s-'80s)

Not sure how he doesn't get fired for this, except all "journalists" get a pass for their amateurish coverage of Trump.

Jake Tapper did a whole interview with Trump by text message? Which means he can't actually confirm it was him. And now everyone's asking even more than before very reasonable questions about the wannabe dictator's health.

www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

The CNN anchor did not explain how he verified that it was the president — not any of his aides — who authored the written responses to his questions.

He also did not explain whether he’d made any effort to speak with the president by phone, something that has become commonplace for reporters covering the second Trump administration because Trump has maintained use of his personal mobile phone since returning to the presidency and frequently uses it to contact reporters directly.

The president’s purported text message exchange with Tapper was also unusual because Trump is not known to be a frequent user of his phone’s text message capacity.

He also famously eschews email and other written forms of communication and during his first term he openly complained when attorneys working for his administration took notes during meetings.

Trump’s unconventional use of text-based communications to purportedly respond to Tapper comes as questions continue to swirl about the state of his health
