For instance, a sampling of the movies offered so far, the Indiana Jones franchise specifically, have been aired on at least ten other cable or streaming outlets several times a week over the past few months. Even if these movies were not on other channels or on streaming, anyone who wants to see them has numerous other options for finding them.
There is no breakthrough that I can see in CBS airing content that has already been rendered stale and overplayed elsewhere. How could its executives get away with such blatant futility?~ less

The movie is timeless to me now -- it all could have happened yesterday. (And it was the first movie I saw with Montgomery Clift - he remains probably the best actor I've seen, overall. No matter what movie role, he always comes across as authentic, a real person, honest. Oh, yeah -- and incredibly handsome, ha. Guy Pearce is right up there with Monty, too, for me.) less
It's one of the best movies I've yet to see in my life. (I think I might have asked this question before.)An excellent ensemble cast.

I really recommend it if you haven't seen it. I bet you'll find it worth your time.This is Julianne Moore in the gif.

The crew members had to do their jobs remotely also, which was a difficult process for many of them. Overall, there were difficulties in coordination, timing, connectively, etc. Some parts of the show were not live, they were pre-recorded due to the obstacles that I mentioned. Tom Hanks was the guest host, and the musical guest was some newfangled, modern-day "entertainer", a man whose name escapes me because I not only did not recognize it when it was announced, I cannot remember it now. Normally, I wouldn't even have tuned in to watch it, but the onscreen programming guide showed that it was supposed to be a rerun from April 16, 2016. As such, it would have been long before the US presidential election took place, and it was not the epoch in which all the show could do was bash Trump, regardless of whether or not their content was humorou... less
