Friend and editor Anna Weinstein's book on Shonda Rhimes makes Bloomsbury’s Essential New Books list for film students

Congratulations to my friend and editor Anna Weinstein!

The first book in her “Screen Storytellers” series, which is on The Works of Shonda Rhimes is on Bloomsbury’s Essential New Books list for film students.

I’m proud to have a chapter in the book discussing the idea that while most people think Rhimes is ‘only’ a feminist, her writings have always expressed an even wider humanist philosophy.   

I can only hope that my upcoming The Works of Susan Harris will make the same list. Look for it in late 2026.

" The Loretta Young Show "
American , early 1950' s

Discovering The Loretta Young Show in 2018.
In The Netherlands just one TV channel in the early 1960' s.
Mainly American, plus some Italian, German, Dutch and British.
And Lucille Ball. Popular !

We never had The Loretta Young Show...

Early 1950' s : What a Powerhouse she was, and how good her shows !
Still as fresh as ever !
Exact the uplifting shows needed now 🙂

Grey Killer Claims First 40 Victims. The Smog Heroes. Give them all a cheer! Give them your thanks! Give them a medal! The railmen and bus workers of Britain are the heroes of the Big Smog. Half a million heroes! Due to the smog, the elderly and people with health problems are advised to stay indoors.

Some comedies are totally unfunny. Unfrosted is just plain unwatchable. But the real story here is the highly suspect "positive" reviews from "reputable" sources (but not for much longer). Netflix is as clueless as the other big networks.

The Hollywood Reporter · Jerry Seinfeld’s ‘Unfrosted’ Divides Critics: “One of Decade’s Worst Movies”By James Hibberd

I’m still looking for guest(s) for “Ninety For Chill: The Podcast” with CatBusRuss’s” #Animay episodes.

A friend asked me, “Are there any under 100 minutes?”. Yes, but few. Thus, I’ll happily chat about 3-4 episodes of any #OVA or #anime #televison.

I just need a title and 40 minutes on Zoom.

I’m currently free to record after 3 pm (CDT) on #Wednesday May 8 & #Thursday May 9. All day #Sunday May 12 is available.
