The Week That Was

Recap 610


It seems TCC got caught up in a lot of television this week. Most notably, the NBC/Tamron Hall debacle. Everyone wanted to know why Hall was leaving "Today". The most definitive answer came from a People magazine exclusive, in which Hall answered questions and we learned Tamron Hall Mulling Over Next Move.

TCC still thinks if the Megan Kelly's numbers don't add up, the finger pointing and blame game will begin! TCC was so captivated with the Hall story we suggested Oprah Joins '60 Minutes' Room for Tamron Hall Too?, and it appears Nielsen Gets Approval Of Digital In TV Ratings as the ratings giant makes progress with desktop and mobile measurement.

Spike Rebranded to The Paramount Network and we'll see if this means a wider audience, while Oxygen Rides Crime Wave,  hopefully to growth. Will Conde Nast Buy The Hollywood Reporter, it appears the two are in talks again, after it was rumored earlier discussions ended due to the asking price.

Melissa McCarthy's Spot On Sean Spicer on NBC's SNL was hilarious and went around social media like wildfire. McCarthy's portrayal of Sean Spicer, White House Press Secretary, was so devastating Spicer is now "on thin ice"!

On the movie front, we went from Disney's TRAILER 'Beauty and the Beast' to its polar opposite, 'Fifty Shades Darker' The Second Chapter! Go figure.  Happy Sunday!

Politics Becoming Popular Spectator Sport

Image
Politics TCC started down this road with a post yesterday, Funny Response to Trump Tweetstorm , that was a GIFF poking fun at White House press secretary Sean Spicer's response to President Trump's cell phone usage to tweet. Politics seems to be a uniting force, both pro and against Trump, on social media and in everyday conversations with Americans commenting, "Did you hear..." "How about..."  "Can you believe...." Stephen Colbert , host of CBS ' "Late Night with Stephen Colbert",  has moved from 2nd place to 1st since the inauguration of Trump. Other late-night hosts are also experiencing a boost in ratings as it appears Americans are using these vehicles as either proof of political views (confirmation or conspiracy) or just as a coping mechanism. Each day Trump seems provide new fodder for late-night television hosts to sink their teeth into.  clipartfox.com

Looks Like Kerry Washington Couldn't Fix SNL

Image
Reviews for Kerry Washington's appearance on SNL , considering Saturday Night Live was dealing with a very public issue concerning the lack of black females on the show, seems to have focused the diversity problem (like a laser) on the writing staff as well. Could diversity among the writing staff be the issue, too?
