Rocky! Winky! Fun!

Thursday, November 8th, 2007

From the newest addition to this year’s Turkey Week festivities, it’s everybody’s favorite dorky space sidekick, Winky, with his lullaby Sleepy Little Fella (drowsy little dame not included):


This is of course from episode 413’s Manhunt in Space, the first of two Rocky Jones telemovies the gang riffed. In addition to giving us both “Rockies” in our lineup, it also creates a run of 10 straight features from the middle of season 4. I hope to have a tentative schedule released in the next couple of days, but since Thanksgiving seems to have crept up on me this year, I’m still buy getting the screengrabs that determine the final timing of the whole festivities. But do tell your friends that it’ll be running from the Tuesday November 21st, 8 PM eastern until the 28th.

Schedule Changes

Tuesday, November 6th, 2007

I’ve made some small alterations to the schedule at IS:

(1) I’ve added another hour of “IS Playhouse”, with the feature films and the like to the schedule, for a grand total of six hours a day. I’ve also shuffled its existing hours around so they’d stay well spaced. The new hours are Midnight, 8 AM, 11 AM, 1 PM, 5 PM, and 9 PM. I made the change because the ephemeral films that play the rest of the time are running through about 8 times for every run through of the playhouse stuff. While it’s always been my intent to keep the playhouse stuff rotating slower so it will stay fresher, that’s a bigger skew than I intended.

(2) I’ve also tossed the still photos into the ephemeral blocks for variety. They should show up in small bunches between movies. Hopefully they won’t be showing up more than they’re warranted.

Well, what do you think sirs and non-sirs?

You had to be the High School Big Shot, didn’t you?

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

It’s that time of year again! Time for me to start plugging away for the upcoming 5th Anniversary Inventing Situations Bake Your Own Turkey Week tv juniors presented by food. Our first official addition is High School Big Shot, starring Tom Pittman as a crazy mixed up kid sharing a dank dank apartment with his even danker dad. I’ve got a few more movies on hand to add, and I’m still scouring the net and the discount bins. (more…)
