Let’s give you an update this afternoon. First, as pointed out by Neil Best of Newsday in his blog, MLB and Fox co-authored a study which shows kids are staying up late to watch Major League Baseball postseason games and ratings actually increase as the hour gets closer to midnight. John Ourand and Eric Fisher […]

Last Saturday, SNL did a bunch of sports promo parodies including two on the really stupid Dane Cook/MLB ads. Dane Cook is a hack and somehow managed to talk his way to getting this gig. NOTE – As of October 22, NBC has taken all of its videos off YouTube so the ALCS videos is […]

Time to give you some links. With the Rockies sweep finishing late on the East Coast, there won’t be any final critiques of TBS’ coverage from the newspapers until tomorrow, but I’m sure there will be reviews of the NFL pregame shows from the weekend. Let’s check out the links. First, John Molori of Boston […]

Arizona pulled to within 6-4 in the 8th, but Manny Corpas came on to get a 4 out save and wasn’t it fitting that Eric Byrnes made the final out? As I’ve mentioned, it’s been fun watching TBS Hot Corner. The show got off to a shaky start, but the show overcame that and hit […]

With Colorado putting up a 6 spot in the 4th inning and taking a 6-1 lead over the Arizona Diamondbacks, it’s looking as if TBS’ run in the postseason is about to come to an end. And it will also mean an end to TBS Hot Corner. Sad, but all good things come to an […]

I’ve got to give the guys at TBS Hot Corner major props. For the past couple nights, Matt Dagostino and Heather Catlin have been re-enacting home run dances. This shows you how loose the format is. You would not see this on Baseball Tonight or the ALCS Live on Fox Sports.com. So while the highlights […]

This is like anticipating the last day of school. You’re kind of glad it’s here, but at the same time, you’re sad because it means the end. If Colorado wins tonight, this could be the end of TBS Hot Corner for this year. And it’s been fun to watch. Can you believe I’m actually rooting […]

Time to give you some links for a Monday afternoon.

As the National League Championship Series appears to be heading Colorado’s way, this is the worst case scenario for TBS. In its first year covering the MLB Postseason, the network has brought a low-key approach for airing the League Division and Championship Series. While writers and fans across the country have killed TBS for the […]

Well, we finally got some excitement from the studio in Atlanta. It was truly a blooper moment, but because I’ve been asked not to mention it, I will give the person a break and not put it here. Up until then, it’s been a quiet night on the Hot Corner, but we did see some […]

Giving you a post on TBS Hot Corner. This evening, I was busy giving you the Videos of the Week so my attention has been elsewhere. Plus, I’ve been entertaining guests so I’ve been a bit distracted. Of what I’ve seen, the Atlanta studio crew of the lovely Heather Catlin, Matt Dagostino and the lovely […]

Back in the 1970’s, cartoons were the norm on Saturday mornings on the networks. Now, Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, PBS Kids and Nick Toons have pretty much taken over the kids TV market, but back in the day, you had some great cartoons. Now at :25 and :55 minutes past the hour, both ABC and CBS […]

Yup. Sunday. Day when we’re supposed to do some work around the house, read the paper and watch some football. That’s never the formula for me, but I do try to get a few things done. Anyway, enough about me and time for some links. Starting with Bob Raissman of the New York Daily News, […]

Ok, let’s give you the Saturday links as the Colorado-Arizona game goes to extra innings. Late night for the Hot Corner crews in both New York and Atlanta. And I’m up giving you links. This is called dedication, my friends. LOL. Starting with the San Antonio Express-News, Jerry Garcia writes that the Patriots-Cowboys will be […]
