BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 
WE WILL ALL GO TOGETHER WHEN WE GO

I’m not likening the end of TVWW’s 14-year run to the end of life as we knew it… Where daily newspapers and magazines were once the nexus of TV criticism, it seems fair to say this is another reminder that a torch is passing...(continued)
 
  
 
 
THIS IS THE END, MY FRIENDS, AND YET NOT THE END

I did not have a TV when I grew up. The family moved from city to city, country to country — a life on the road, constantly on the move. I have vague recollections of Doctor Who playing — in flickering black-and-white — in a tiny room in a tiny house during one early childhood memory, but I don't remember much about it, except that I'm pretty sure that incarnation of the Doctor was played by Jon Pertwee and I was terrified of the Daleks...(continued)
 
  
 
 
CHEERS TO THE CONTENT CREATORS

By now, way too many TV memories are taking up space in my mind.

They leave little room for anything else, except movie plots and Cubs' batting averages. But one vivid memory is basic – a show in which a man simply played records...(continued)
 
  
 
 
TVWW AND LUCILLE BALL: TRUE ORIGINALS

There has never been a showcase for smart television criticism quite like TVWW...I may never have to get used to a world without I Love Lucy, but I can't say the same about TVWW. I'm going to have to get used to that. Sort of...(continued)
 
  
 
 
TV WORTH WATCHING GAVE US A FRONT ROW SEAT

For me, David Bianculli on "Best TV Tomorrow" was TV Worth Watching. 

It was fun streaming along, seeing if David knew what day it was, watching him build to a terrible pun. Every show ending with that Mickey Rooney grin. It was a minute or two with a friend, delivered every day to my inbox. For free!...(continued)

Listening to Fresh Air, it sounds like David is keen on the new vehicle for Bob Odenkirk (Lucky Hank)!

Loved reading this blog, take time and read below as well.

Creating a moving timeline and checklist is essential for a successful and organized move. It helps to keep track of important tasks, and deadlines and ensures nothing is forgotten. The timeline should include critical dates, such as when to start packing, booking a moving company, and notifying important parties about the move. The checklist should consist of all the necessary tasks, such as decluttering, packing, cleaning the old home, and unpacking and organizing the new home. Visit alfamovers.com for more!

Sara,

Your post is extremely interesting, but isn't welcome here. We're here to honor TVWW and to pray for the return of David and his guidance of what to watch, and what NOT to watch, on Television.

Hey Berlin,

If you think this blog is good now, you should have seen it when David was participating. Unfortunately those bright lights are now extinguished. Sad.

Hey mister,

Please stop trying to advertise on this web page! I am the self-appointed defender of the wall here, while David is on his little sabbatical. He wouldn't allow this kind of advertising, so I must ask you to stop!

Sincerely,

Ben

David Bianculli

Founder / Editor

David Bianculli has been a TV critic since 1975, including a 14-year stint at the New York Daily News, and sees no reason to stop now. Currently, he's TV critic for NPR's Fresh Air with Terry Gross, and is an occasional substitute host for that show. He's also an author and teaches TV and film history at New Jersey's Rowan University. His 2009 Dangerously Funny: The Uncensored Story of 'The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour', has been purchased for film rights. His latest, The Platinum Age of Television: From I Love Lucy to the Walking Dead, How TV Became Terrific, is an effusive guidebook that plots the path from the 1950s’ Golden Age to today’s era of quality TV.
