In this mini-episode recorded on June 27, Sean and Claude talk about the recent staffing changes over at Turner Classic Movies and the impact it’s having on people, not only the viewers but the people who are so intimately involved with the medium, such as Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg. Listen in, and worry along with us.
Incidentally, some sharp-eyed viewers (me among them) noticed that the TCM hosts have stopped doing commentary after the films, and took that as a bad sign. Fortunately the complaints were heard, and the “outros” will return. Because of the long lead time from production to airing, Ben Mankiewicz will be back in September, and Dave Karger and Alicia Malone will return to outros in October.
