TV News: Sadly, the Bondsman will not live to see another day. Amazon has buried Kevin Bacon’s supernatural horror super quick after just one season. This is not Bacon’s first short-lived show at Amazon, so my suggestion would be to work elsewhere where they appreciate your work.

Ive been trying to take back the phrase “going in blind”, which is used by so many sighted people to just mean “I have no idea what this is, but I’m doing it anyway.” I literally go in blind to everything, whether I know what it is or not. But, to take the somewhat co-opted ableist approach, I went in blind on this one, both possible meanings of that phrase. Sony Pictures Classics offered me an advance of Jane Austen Wrecked My life, and I really didn’t know anything about this except for some basic logline material. The movie spends … Continue reading Going In Blind: Jane Austen Wrecked My Life

TV News: Again, as of me typing this, The Handmaids Tale: S6E8 still does not have audio description. This would be more shocking, or more of a grace period for a little mistake if Hulu didn’t routinely miss out on next day audio description, and not include audio description day and date on titles coming straight to them from the house of Mouse. it truly is that this service does not care. if you have Hulu but not Disney Plus, did you check out any of that content on loan? Because, those Star Wars films have audio description on Disney … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries- 05/15/25

TV News: Day Two. the Handmaids Tale: S6E8 still has no audio description. Still.

TV News: Hulu failed to upload the new episode of The Handmaids Tale with its accompanying audio description, so I was unable to watch it. Some shows, I don’t mind because I know audio description isn’t coming, so there’s no point in waiting, and other shows like Will trent, when they don’t get next air audio description, I care about less. But, I’m not advancing any further on the show that has been topping my weekly rankings until Hulu makes it right. I’m tired of constantly having this problem with Hulu. Why is it so exclusive to Hulu? Why is … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries- 05/13/25
