Travelogue to the Minnesota State Fair.

Four sitcoms of 1996, including a show that should have done better (but didn’t) and a show that’s should have done worse (also didn’t).

A mega-hit for CBS, followed by the return of Pudding Guy and a Cheers alum.

From Broadway to the Boob Tube.

The Unbelievables gets underway, Villain Amnesty is a major fail, a New God stops by to assist the JSA, Boston Brand is Deadman, Geiger is fighting Natzis, Cam goes on a tour of Hell, and there’s a lo...

Five sitcoms of 1996 from the “other” networks, including a big hit (at least for them) and one of the worst of all time.

That Wonderful TV Year - 2003!

Peter and Clark together again--again, The League makes the Worst--Decision--Ever, the JSA is on a Spectre hunt, Redcoat goes for the Silver, and Vertigo returns, just to reach End of Life.

Six sitcoms are covered, including early “hits” for UPN and the WB.

Holy Fever Dream, Batman!

Clark and Peter together again, I guess Unlimited means villains too, the JSA wraps up Year One, while Bizarro starts Year None. Lower Decks finishes with a floppenshoppendoodle, Geiger visits the ol...

Six shows from 1996--5 absolute flops, and 1 that fell off the Must See TV perch.

1996 continues with an early UPN hit and three misses.

It's the 13th Annual Oscar Prediction Show!

The Terrific Ten stagger to a conclusion, the JSA gang WAS all here, The Lowers Deckers go all ST:III, Time Tank to the rescue, while Theresa may be out of time, and here comes the Unbelievables.

The final QISE primetime begins with the end of the women's biathlon, with Torico from the Duomo sending us to Klaebo.  There's a Tucci wrap up, the Speed Skating rerun, and a Kurt Russell-narrated Ho...

We begin the final weekend, but back to Prime Time last night (post-Hockey game)--Torico from the Duomo sends us off to Men’s Aerials finals.  They really need to do something to differentiate this fr...

Back to Prime Time last night--we get the final moments of the US’s Women’s Hockey win, then Tirico (at the Duomo) sends us to the early runs of Figure Skating, including Amber Glenn and Isabeau Levit...

Back to Prime Time last night--first off, my DVR didn’t record it, so I’m forced to watch it on Peacock.  Which means I can’t skip through commercials--and it’s difficult to skip thru events I’ve alre...

Back to Prime Time last night--Torico promos Women’s Skating, then sends us off to Speed Skating Men's Team Pursuit Finals.  A commentator says time does not matter--how philosophical. Italy takes the...

Back to Prime Time last night--Torico intros the evening with the Women's Hockey victory,  then it's off to Men's Slalom.  Almost half of the competitors went off the course.  There’s a point just bef...

In the Year 2026…

We start earlier than normal in the coverage, as I had an activity yesterday afternoon.

Things may be a little truncated, as I've got an activity scheduled later today.

Back to Prime Time last night--it’s Women’s Hockey time, as they take out host country Italy.  But of course the main story has to be: “Quad God Falls From Grace”, right?  Nope--Mike (from the Duomo) ...

Back to Prime Time last night-- It's been 46 years since the “Miracle on Ice”, and now that the US Hockey team has gamed the system by packing it with NHL players, they're doing pretty well--big surpr...

Tirico kicks off Prime Time with the last moments of Women’s Moguls.  The analyst noted that a competitor had not competed for awhile “due to a knee injury”.  I have no idea how that could have happen...

We move from 1995 to 1996 with two flops and a hit that’s mostly been forgotten.

Let’s jump into last night’s Prime Time, with Torico sending us straight to Cross Country Sprint.   Klaebo is back!   And the US qualified for the final--Klaebo takes it, with the US’s Ogden winning h...

Let’s jump into last night’s Prime Time, with the finale of the curling match--the two Coreys move ahead!  Torico is finally in Milan, reporting from the Duomo-adjacent set.  Over to Men's Team Combin...

With the Superb Owl out of the way, NBC can finally concentrate on QISE--until the NBA All-Star Game :(  Off to last night’s delayed prime time--

Things will be chopped up a bit today, due to the Superb Owl butting in.

It’s Black, Gold, and Diana, The Terrific Ten are decimated, The Society begins to take shape, Boimler takes command, two Ghost Machine leads meet, Benedict Arnold looks for redemption, and Theresa ta...

We kick things off with the prime time “encore” of the Opening Ceremonies.  Mike Tirico finally checks in from California, prepping for the Superb Owl.  Storylines are set up for the expected stars of...

Before we get into Milan’s Opening Ceremony, a quick note on the “preliminary events” (some sports take longer than QISE is technically scheduled, so they start early).

We’re back with our coverage of what we call the Quadrennial International Sporting Event, to avoid the ire of the QISE Committee.  The winter games of 2026 are being held at dual cities--Milan and Co...

Road Trip! #parkhopping

We’ve run out of Kryptonite Spectrum, the Terrific Ten become the Terrific Six, Spectre joins JSA Year One, a cosmic encounter brings Bruce and Wade back together, something is wrong on Laapeeria (and...

Six sitcoms of 1995, only one of which made it to season 2--and only because of the “hammock slot”.

Happy Holidays from Mark, Mindy, and SFPPN! We’ll see you in January.

Happy Life Day, everyone!

Five 1995 sitcoms, some with TV vets, but only one makes it past one season.

We’ve run out of DC History, The League is trapped in DC: KO, JSA begins Year One, Clark and Billy hang out, Supes goes Red and Blue (again), The Gaslight League fights Zod, Lower Deckers search for W...

Ooh, look--it’s the Sunsphere!

What do a redneck, a singer, a TV producer, 3 TV kids, and a standup equal? Five failed 1995 sitcoms.
