We don't deserve MeTV Toons. Every weekend is just an onslaught of specials since October.

I'm back, completely lost my mind last time, anyways, on Monday, saw one Bakshi Fractured Fables cartoon on Toon in with Me. Surprising, ain't it? The first Bakshi film I saw was Hey Good Lookin (pirated it). I have Fritz on Blu-ray.

So I bought a SATA to IDE adapter to start up my old IDE Hard Drive to check if there were any files that were not backed up on my other drives. Sure enough I did find some files that were not. That old IDE Hard Drive was painful to listen to. But transferred the files to my SSD without an issue.

Just saw this article about the possibility of ASTC1 switching to MPEG4 during the transition to ATSC3. Interesting quote from Weigel Broadcasting about how many people's TV's can't receive MPEG4.

MPEG-4 to the Rescue
Broadcasters are hopeful the codec can handle the heavy lifting of transitioning from ATSC 1.0

Just uploaded a few 1987 CBS Cartoons promos from VHS Tape of Beauty and the Beast (Live-Action Drama) that I digitalized earlier this year. Here are Promos for "Happy New Year Charlie Brown and Cathy" and Dennis The Menace.

A new report from Comscore makes the case that most Americans don't care whether they get their entertainment, news and sports from traditional TV networks or streaming apps — it's all the same to them.

But sports fans are frustrated that more live events keep going to costly streaming apps.

Mighty Mouse and his Terrytoon friends are now on MeTV Toons! Every Sunday from 3p - 5p.

The Terrytoons shorts don't look superb (they're sourced from the 50s-60s CBS Saturday morning show iirc) but the Ralph Bakshi 80s series segments look great:

Mighty Mouse is now airing on MeTV Toons.

Cannot state how much of a big deal this is. The Terrytoons were more locked away than even the Fox Kids stuff that Disney still owns.

MeTV+ will be changing its schedule again starting tomorrow. The 80s CBS Drama Beauty and the Beast will be added to the Sunday lineup replacing Covert Affairs. Also, additional episodes of Hunter and Hardcastle and McCormick will replace Covert Affairs on Saturday night.

MeTV Toons is having some technical difficulties on the West Coast feed right now. Went to a Black and no audio during The Flintstones with just a logo on screen, then the logo disappeared and the audio came back for commercial break. After commercial Logo came back, plus on now/next up graphic.

Eventually I will finish the multiple projects I've started. Hahaha.

Looks like a lot of Hanna-Barbera TV specials, including repeats, will be airing this year, including the 1972 TV special A Christmas Story (not to be confused with the 1986 movie of the same name), which hasn't aired on TV in years. #HannaBarbera #SaveHannaBarbera

The Miser Brother's Christmas is part of it this year?

Wow, that is a weirdly deep cut. And also surprised they still had the rights to air.
