A Thread for Random Musings


Old Man

Recommended Posts

   Thanksgiving movies are a little more iffy for the networks.  Unless your network is targeted for a demographic that won’t have any objections, like the Hallmark channel, then you could leave yourself open to protests from people objecting to the treatment of Native Americans.

    Christmas movies are just the safer bet.

 

   For things like this I always rely on the Robert A. Heinlein quote.  “Whenever you ask, Why did “they” do this thing or that, the answer is always money.”

You mean, except for followers of every other religion, plus the atheists. :P

Basically, English is what happens when Vikings learn Latin and use it to shout at Germans.

 

You say that like it's a bad thing.

    I think that the Hallmark channel is going for the right-wing Christian over 40 Female “Karen” demographic.  Anybody else who wants to watch their 10 week long marathon of Christmas movies is just gravy for them.


P.S.   I just noticed that we’re on page 666.   I don’t know what to do with that, but there’s got to be a joke there somewhere.

     I make no disparaging remarks about your family, I’m only talking about a demographic that company is looking to.

I like watching MTV2’s showings of all the Prince movies, but I don’t think that channels really targeted at 53 year old disabled white guys....do you?🧑‍🦽
