Just finished the remaining episodes of 'The Corridors Of Power' - unmissable TV, even if it does present a rather bleak appraisal of what happens when American idealism comes up against realpolitik...

(for those who saw the original 2022 film, this is the full-fat eight hour version - all shades of opinion, from total isolationists to total interventionists, are given room to breathe...).

ESPN launching a new site to allow fans to find out where games are streaming, across all sports and streaming services:

I think there is little to no chance competitors allow it. RSNs aside, big streamers overpay for leagues to get viewers into their ecosystems, not watching the game in a frame on espn.com.

The new Shane Gillis Bud Light commercial is pretty good.



If you've seen the show Tires, this is Tires in about two minutes.

Been watching 'The Zelensky Story', which profiles the President of Ukraine. Interesting series.

(It's a BBC production, but will clearly get shown in the US - I would assume PBS).

After 22 years, the Clarkson, May, Hammond top gear / grand tour team have released their final show.  It’s available on Amazon.

Who wants this? Why don’t they just broadcast the real one here in the states?
