TVTM returns! @BastardMachine and @jsnell dug through this tunnel with a spoon to give you this podcast.

Station Eleven, The Afterparty, Colbert, marriages, The A Word, and will Tim ever accept advance screeners again? Plus, your letters!

It's Peacock's time to shine, getting the PBS runaround, @BastardMachine finds "Utopia"--twice, and @jsnell gets confused by CBS ads.

Tim has posted his first Box Set selections:
"Station Eleven" (HBO Max) episode 1
"Collateral" (Netflix) episode 1
Go do your homework, we'll be discussing them on next week's TVTM! (But we'll mark when we talk about them so you can skip what you haven't seen.)
Tim's back! On Substack! The machine awakens!

We recorded an episode for the first time in 609 days today.
Out Monday, along with the new @BastardMachine Substack's official launch.

We had to order a replacement part for the Machine. Ironically, this may lead to us recording (once again) on a Friday--Saturday in Australia.
Thank you to Don for all the joy he brought to all of us.

One last reminder that Jason's now talking Streaming Wars every other week on this new podcast...
Netflix tries to manage growth, changes how it reports viewership, and faces criticism from its own employees. Plus, @loudmouthjulia and @jsnell answer listener questions and discuss how easy it is to add and cancel services!

TV Talk Machine retweeted
"Squid Game" and Netflix's international strategy, the difference between a hit and a franchise, "Law & Order" and TV network brand extensions, successes and failures at the box office, and @loudmouthjulia's list of the best services for scary movies!

It's true, @loudmouthjulia and I are going to be talking about the streaming media every other week starting next Wednesday. Subscribe now and don't miss an episode! This should be a lot of fun, especially if you liked @tvtm or like the Upstream segment in @_upgradefm!
Welcome to Downstream, a new podcast in which @loudmouthjulia and @jsnell break down the business of binging in the era of the Streaming Wars! We'll release every other week starting Oct. 6. Preview episode out today.

These two guys had lunch in person today and didn't record it, so it's not a podcast, but they also weren't killed by Drop Bears, so look on the bright side.
Now the truth can be told. Tim's in the biz. You may never see what he's been doing. But that's what he's been doing! -j.s.

After 250 episodes, @BastardMachine and @jsnell close the book on Vol. 4 of the TVTM and pull the machine to the side of the road. (But keep the feed alive, we'll be back!)
In the meantime we talked for an hour on a Friday afternoon. Classic TVTM.

This week we just recorded the pre-show rehearsal that @BastardMachine and @jsnell do every week. 😂 Also, 45 minutes of actual TV talk.
