A little backstory, some interesting facts about the performers, or the production, or the studios, or the public's reaction, fine. I wouldn't mind a word or two about the movie, a thumbnail view, it's just that they practically tell me everything I'm about to see onscreen, which to me defeats the purpose of watching the movie! If I wanted someone to tell me what's about to happen before it happens, I wouldn't be watching it. I always hit the mute button when they start their spiels, and once the opening credits roll, I turn the volume back up. ~ less

The selectees/appointees can't even make it through to confirmation. The latest stupid dumb? The VA choice. Rejoice one and all. Another potential appointee hits the wall...can't pass the smell test. So much for getting THE BEST PEOPLE.
How do we know if the miscomprehension isn't ours? So we talk at cross-purposes without ever realizing it. Thus are relationships fractured/shattered. SIGH.
