"Millionaire" renewed yet again

[Tony Peters]

- at best -

These words. I do not think they mean what you think they mean.

Perhaps I should have typed "...partly - if not only - to keep...".

As to Fedya's comment, I'm not opposed to comic book movies per se (though my interest in them has waned significantly); I just thought that re-doing Spidey and the Four so soon after their previous iterations was so unnecessary and smacked of Keep Away From the Mouse rather than actually trying to do the characters justice.

You'd still be displaying a particularly refined ignorance, but it's your dime.

Both movies were indeed keep away. Fantastic Four most definitely. Fantastic Four has an infamous history in making movies before the cutoff date. I'd have no problem with them redoing movies, if they just didn't suck. I realize how subjective that statement is. All this effort into trying to make it "different" and world build like Marvel/Disney, but it comes off sloppy and convoluted to me.

Speaking of interesting (there is a game show tilt to this)

In the Raleigh, NC television market, as of February 29, there will be an affiliation switch taking place. WRAL, which has been a CBS affiliate for a little over thirty years (previously was ABC), becomes an NBC affiliate.

More like WRAL becomes an NBC affiliate again (they were originally with them from 1956-62)!

WNCN, as the Triangle's new home for CBS, could move their local magazine show to 9:00 am with Young and the Restless at 12:30, right in pattern with most East Coast CBS affiliates (Atlanta sees Y&R at 3:00).

God, you're tedious.

A small update: WNCN will be keeping Y&R's 4pm timeslot upon the affiilation switch, with "Ellen" going to 3pm. LMAD will go from 3pm to 10am (the "other" time that CBS feeds it). Their news moves from 11am to noon.
