So Jeff the one with the biggest ego in the show, has the smallest ego from the cast?

Real crab pot behavior, honestly.
People will whine about everything.

The quality bounced around from episode to episode, but it was frighteningly creative.
It really showcases what can be done with practical effects vs digital.

It’s why the bwomp was invented - it’s a sound that sounds very serious and eerie without being an emergency alert.

I noticed this horrible screen green edit in episode two in one of the most simple scenes imaginable

Only drawback are cable companies limiting cable cards to 720p.

Eh. I doubt that using this specific tone profits FOX half a million more than any other tone.

It got better because it came together, but for me by episode 5 I was over it and stopped watching

If the government actually wanted people to follow the law maybe the should be giving out real punishments, $500,000 could easily be less than they made by advertise this way
They should be fined much more likely a percentage of corporation's total worth, say 25% and the people directly responsible should face jail time, but you know that would be if we actually wanted to deter people from committing crimes

You can find used dual tuner hdhrs off eBay for $50-70. The newer ones have USB for local dvr recording, otherwise it records to a smb share just fine, but your paying $30 year for dvr use.
I used to have the cable card version of the hdhr and you couldn't record ppv/vod or premium channels like HBO and Showtime. Everything else recorded fine.
The files it records can easily be edited. Using any Kodi or VLC client (phone, tablet, media player) I can play the file, even while it's still recording. With Plex, I have to convert the file if I wanted to edit them and naturally have to wait for it to stop recording before I can view it. Also need Plex Pass for hdhr support, which varries from $100-130. Using Android channels app to dvr, it's free, but you can't transfer the files and they can't be viewed from any other device.

So was it a lawyer review failure? Or the fine is worth the cost?

When I lived on First Hill, no way could I get all channels. In Kent East Hill, I easily get them all using a $70 antenna built for RVs. You may need to upgrade your antenna if you got a $20 leaf clone.

My Dad works in radio and TV signals and has worked one of these cases. He demonstrated to me the episode of Young Sheldon a few years back that played the real tones. He ran it through the decoder and it came up as a Tornado Warning at a specific time for a specific location.

My other answer is Supernatural, because that show really could have used an obsessive fangirl on their staff yelling at them to keep their characters and canon consistent. I could have helped you, SPN.

Reply to HBO's Oz is lowkey underrated by BodeineBreezus
I had a hard time getting into it. It’s too theatre-y for me. It feels less like a show and more like a play where everyone monologues nonstop.

It's almost just a very expensive licensing fee. They already pay licensing fees to play short clips of music. Same thing.

Honestly, the thing that really sells me with that show is the incredible chemistry between the main cast. I can look past low budget sci-fi easily when there is a crew of characters that really fucking run with what they're working with. And everybody in that show is giving 110%. The body switching episode remains in my top 5 favorite sci-fi moments of all time for that very reason.
