Some people (on Reddit) spoke positively about this, but it seemed way
too "woke" for me.

> Anna Wood & Oluniké Adeliyi Among Four Cast In NBC Drama Pilot ‘Unbroken’

Oh, Anna Wood is still around?... Too bad this pilot sounds of no
interest to me.

> Hulu Adds Unlimited DVR At No Extra Cost For Live TV Subscribers (March 11)

Yay?...

> CNN Sets March 29 For Launch Of Streaming Service (March 11)

Which nobody wants!!

> ‘Domina’ Renewed For Season 2 By Epix (March 10)

NOBODY gets Epix!!

> ‘Night Court’: India de Beaufort Joins NBC Sequel In Recasting (March 10)

Yeah, I like her more than the person she recast. I'm probably more
interested in this now...

> HBO Max Orders ‘The Penguin’ Limited Series As ‘The Batman’ Clocks $301

[sigh...]

NOBODY gets Starz!!

May he never be on TV again!!

Oh, gawd, no...

> ‘Quantum Leap’: Nanrisa Lee, Mason Alexander Park, Caitlin Bassett Join NBC

The casting is making this even *less* likely that I would bother to
sample it!...

> ‘Vikings: Valhalla’: Netflix Reveals Launch Pattern As Fantasy Epic Tops
> Streamer’s Weekly Ratings (March 9)

I still have never finished the last season of the original...

> Apple In Rights Deal With MLB For ‘Friday Night Baseball’ (March 8)

Yay?...

I like Beane, so, maybe?...

Wait, what?! I thought the current season had already been confirmed to
be the last one!

> ‘Gotham Knights’: Fallon Smythe & Tyler DiChiara Join CW Pilot (March 7)

As I said, it's the later casting of Olivia Rose Keegan that really has
me interested...

That can only be considered an "upgrade"...
