Considering the way his other show ended and how this one started, I was hoping that Danny would have sat down Stephanie and DJ down one days and go “kids, I’m going to tell you a wonderful story….” Or even casually just go “hey did I ever tell you story of how I met your mother?”

I made a similar thread about shows changing focus, but this I mean more like
Scrubs. Should have ended at season 8. Season was so drastically different, it should have branded as a different show
Community season 5 and 6. Season 4 ended with them all graduating and season 5 started with them coming back to school like it’s been years (only about 4 months in real time) and everyone failed at life. Not to mention the huge character turnover.
Dragon ball z, the Majin buu era is such a huge departure from Z as far as look and characters, and they finally changed the theme song, it get as drastic a change as going from dragon ball to dragon ball Z. they should have treated it the third show before Gt became a thing. Not mention dbz would have ended with Goku dead it would feel like the show actually had some stakes and his return in Buu would have been more satisfying.
Obvious the Simpsons. I mean people complain about the drop in quality from Teen titans To Teen titans Go, but could you imagine if it just kept going as Teen titans and devolved into Go? That’s how it’s like with the simpsons. Sure people would be complaining about “being back the original Simpson” but at least you wouldn’t get the whole “this show hasn’t been good since season 10” argument.

Been watching a lot of school/teen sitcoms and man, they really ran out of idea pretty quick into their run.
I think Saved by the bell: the new class got the most flack for number of episodes where it didn’t take place at the school, but
Hang time: So far, they’ve been camp counselors, road trip to LA or San Antonio (which is fine for their basketball tournaments) but now I’m watching them in New York for no reason just spending Christas away from their family. City guys. Inner city youth at Manhattan high school where they spent several episode: in a town house doing a Reel world spoof, now they’re at a beach house using the Malibu CA sets. Student bodies: man they haven’t been in school or talked about their newspaper for the longest time
Modern family: it got really weird when all the kids graduated high school and still live at home or were written off the show (manny) or just disappeared (Lily). Also, they, like Parks and Rec abandoned their documentary style format and became some WWe invisible camera man with Titus/Bernie Mack style talking heads where the characters are just talking about what they’re thinking
Beverly Hills 90210 after they all graduated college. Same with Boy meets world.
Then it just became young adults just living their lives while their teachers and parents were still around for some reason..
The Goldberg. Considering it was the Real Adam Goldber’s memories about his quirky family has become the wacky adventures of Barry and Mrs. Goldberg. Or that Parody show. Ditto for community.
The Mentalist killed off its big Bad they were building up for like 5 years and then it just kept going. So then it just became wacky myster of the week Where the two main leads kept working with each other until they realized they liked each other.

Florida, Chicago, Texas, Georgia, they seem to be in every couple of weeks.
If not there, then it’s the typical southern states with wcw ties like the Carolina’s, Georgia, virginias.
Sure they’ll occasionally go to New York, Milwaukee, or even Colorado, but why do they never go further west or north (Canada)?
Is there some reason why they’d avoid a major city like Los Angeles kr San Francisco or Washington? The closest I’ve seen them is Vegas.

Yeah but at least Moxley knows how to make a taco properly. Max Castor puts the cheese in first then the tomatoes and then the meat. It's crazy. Crazy? or genius? sounds like the toppings wouldn't fall out with each bite.

Oh yeah, and something I never thought about, My neck feels a lot better since I'm looking straight and directly at a monitor and not down at smart screen. Even a laptop, I have to look down at an angle.

I was just wondering. Ever since I got my smart phone, and then later my tablet, I don't use my actual computer as much since I don't do anything special with it besides check the internet, watch videos, or do the occasional work related thing that requires a stronger processor and bigger screen, and reply to emails. Also, I didn't print as much stuff since I could look stuff up on my tablet, or sign stuff with an apple pencil.
At first, I was happy to not put so much wear and tear on my computer since I've had it for so long, but now I feel bad that it's taking up space and now it feels like I'm wasting money having something that I never use. Now I'm doing stuff to justify having it around, so I'm using it for various things and I forgot how much better it was typing with my hands and a mouse.
Decided to learn excel off of youtube and my 2007 copy of Office that I don't have to pay a subscription fee for Learning a new language that doesn't have a lot of official resources, so youtube and google have been a blessing for a lot of copy and paste, or typing stuff as someone's talking.
Also, got a laser printer for cheap, and a crapload of paper that was originally being conservative about using. But now that I don't have to worry about ink, I'm using the hell out of it. Using all the scratch paper to print on the clean side, all my language notes have actually helped me de clutter a lot of paper I had lying around.
Also, another reason for this question, is that on TV, everyone uses a laptop, and I rarely see towers at the store. Are they not as popular, or being phased out, or just a tv thing? I did notice one year where they took out the DVD/CD players, but recently, they're back. I guess a lot of people didn't like it. I know I felt weird about it.

2 episodes in and… not too great, but not too bad. Hilary Duff is very likable and the character is a lot less grating than Ted Mosby. I like the twist that they tell you from the beginning, {Spoiler} that she’s already met the father right in the first episode, but the secret is “which one of these guys is the father?”

Instead of the “live people watching tv in an awkward angle”
I’m surprised they don’t do it like a normal person so they don’t have to do it live since you normally wouldn’t be able to see the screen.
It doesn’t even make sense in Kayfabe because how they watching a different feed on their tv vs the what the audience is seeing? The picture on the tv should them looking at themselves.

Everything on tv or movies before 1980 had this weird look to it I can’t describe. Like the sound and lighting quality was weird and the film had this grainy feel to it. I watched Airplane for the first time (1980) and it looks so 70’s, while the Naked Gun seems a bit more timeless.

Or a bit more depressing nostalgia?
I was watching city guys on YouTube and the tnbc logo popped up during the credits and it was the bland grey circle and it just reminded me of the later days of the tnbc run when most of my favorites were gone and these new shows they were trying started popping up. Single camera, no audience dramas. Sk8, just deal, etc.
Then there’s wcw and that Star Trek style logo. The old nitro stuff with the street motif, good memories. That millennium logo, Russo garbage.
The wwe scratch logo after they got the F out. Pretty much everything after Austin and rock until cm punk and Daniel Bryan.
Nxt 2.0

I’m like
“Where’s Rebel, Hayter, and her belt?”
Is this like the elite In the bullet club, where there’s factions inside of factions?

Not promos, I mean when he's doing those sit down interviews and pre packaged videos at home.
it's so quiet, and shaky, and kind of tired sounding.
Isn't he like 30? Why's he talk like Terry funk?

So many that they'll have to fit in a picture in picture commercial break in between. I'd prefer it Jericho style, where they go to commercial mid power bomb, and when they return,he's still power bombing him.

Throw in Becky Lynch too and Kofi has to be having some PTSD on people with the initials B.L. Maybe Kofi should skip this show out of fear. The minute the match was teased I thought of...
