The Small Screen Diaries- 02/29/24

Actually typing out the 29th of February feels like a mistake, until you convince yourself that yesterday was, in fact, Leap Day. So, how did I spend it? With some disappointing audio description. Of course, that means Abbott Elementary (ABC/Hulu), which Disney has apparently just decided to throw down the tubes this season for blind people. If ABC wanted to experiment with whaat seems to be AI generated audio description on every level, perhaps start with not your number one show. Just a thought. Over on Will Trent (ABC/Hulu), this show did have audio description, but it really felt lacking … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries- 02/29/24

I celebrated Star Wars Day by not watching any Star Wars. Listen. i watched and reviewed all the titles last year before obi Wan dropped. I’m good to go for this year. Also, production on some shows continue to shut down due to the writers strike. The most recent shows affected are hacks, American Horror Story, and billions. 12) The power (Amazon) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Not yet Renewed Amazon’s drama, which I love the concept, but not the execution, continues to be kind of a mess. It’s characters are spread out. Generally, the lead is the big name, … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/04/23

Just read a little blurb saying that House Of The Dragon’s second season may actually be shorter than the first, but along with that would come an early season three renewal. I guess it has more to do with how they wanted to leave Season 2, and not just pump the show full of filler. 6) That 90’s Show (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes For the 8th episode, Kitty easily stole this. Mostly, the half hour was about the kids trying to find their stash. I was a little surprised at how up front they were about searching for their … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 03/28/23

Today, I do have a spot of TV News. Disney Plus, likely to the surprise of no one, cancelled their disappointing Willow TV series. It’s all about the casting, guys. And, also…. Bringing a property back from the 80’s that’s aimed at the younger crowd, who probably haven’t seen Willow, was maybe a mistake. 7) Will Trent (ABC/Hulu) English Audio Description?: No Someone had to lose today, so it might as well be one of the shows that did not provide audio description. This has very much been a recurring problem with Will Trent, which leads me to believe ABC … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup: 03/15/23

Today marked the return of The Mandalorian! It feels like it’s been so long. But, where did it rank in the conglomeration of shows? 6) The Ark (Peacock) English Audio Description?: Yes We only have 4 days of water. Thank God there’s a comet full of ice headed straight for it. And because our audience has seen Armageddon, they can suspend disbelief and let us catch the comet so we can steal the ice and have water! Episode Grade: C+ 5) That 90’s Show (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes As cool as it was to see Donna return, and an … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 03/01/23
