Confirmed - I find no Tubi original named "Snatched" on Tubi right now.
(However, 1973's "Invasion of the Girl Snatchers" sounds like a movie
that's right up Amin's alley!!)

Sara Ball has kind of come out of nowhere. A year and a half back, she
did an X-Mas movie for Hybrid Films (with Vivica!!), that turned up on
either Ion or UPtv (I think). But she had very few credits before that.
So this is her second TV movie as the lead, after coming out of pretty
much nowhere! I'm not even sure if she's American or Canadian.

Anyway, may have to record this for later viewing...

Wow - season 11, and no sign of wrapping this up.
(Anyone know what year they're up to by now?! I think they started
circa... 1905, maybe? So, by now they must be up to about 1915!!)

I love that guy's videos. Some manufacturer comes out with a new product

A very interesting true story about how the British Post Office's
computer system, Horizon, literally ruined the lives of many
postmasters by driving them into bankruptcy, prison, or even suicide in
a few cases while the Post Office management covered up the
disgracefully bad system. It has been called the worst miscarriage of
justice in Britain in 200 YEARS.

If you like underdog stories like Erin Brockovich, you should enjoy Mr.
Bates vs. The Post Office.

Let's not blame the system. Let's blame the high-level coverup.

I saw the documentary some time back, which was fascinating.

Isn't there also a movie?

Actually, the computer system was truly dreadful. I've been researching
it and, of the people that designed it, only 1 or 2 were actual capable
and competent and the rest ranged between borderline and awful.
Computer Weekly has dozens of articles on the subject from the past 20
odd years that this scandal has been happening. I don't know how
comprehensible they would be to you without a computer background but
they stagger my imagination.

How long was this documentary that you saw? Mr. Bates vs The Post
Office has 4 hour long parts (45 minutes each minus the commercials).
Is that what you saw? If not, then I think Mr. Bates *is* the movie
you're talking about. (I assume the documentary featured interviews
with the actual participants in the events but Mr. Bates is essentially
a re-enactment of the events with actors in place of the real
participants, just as the Erin Brockovich movie was.)

And this one still doesn't have an IMDb page...

I'm not sure I will have the time to put one together today.

I'm thinking of the movie about the guy who founded the community bank
in response to the RBS scandal, about the guy who arranged direct loans
between small individual investors and new small businesses. I don't
think that got a fictional television series.

So stupid question - what's a security influencer? Deputy Bubba with a
pistol and billy club?

And it looks like I successfully created an IMDb page for this! It
should take a day to fully populate, I'll wager...

In Lifetime parlance, an "influencer" is anyone who posts to the
internet, esp. those with the equivalent of a YouTube or TikTok (or
Instagram?) channel. It's a recurring bit for their films...

Ian (My favorite recent one of these is "Confessions of a Cam Girl"
where Megan Best gets all slutted up online on her
YouTube/TikTok/Insta/whatever channel to try to pay for her internship
in Paris!!)

My forthcoming programming list for the week has two Tubi entries for
today, with my best guesses as to when they were actually released:

--Robin

Snatched (movie) (3:01 am, Tubi)

When a dangerous criminal from her past breaks out of prison, a former
CIA agent must tap back into her lethal skills to protect her family.
Stars Veronika Bozeman; 1 hr 41 min. [Originally announced for April 6
(in Tubi's March 19 press release describing Tubi's April additions),
but Tubi's trailer (posted April 10) dates it for today, and it is in
fact available as of 2 am ET today. I think it was released this morning].

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27300761/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyWo44c-DfQ

https://tubitv.com/movies/100020085/snatched

Billion Dollar Bluff (movie) (3:01 am, Tubi)

When a popular influencer gets kidnapped and held for ransom, she grips
the media’s attention by helping the criminals rob luxurious mansions.
Stars Bukola Ayoka; 1 hr 27 min. [This was originally announced for
today (in Tubi's March 19 press release), but Tubi's trailer (posted on
April 10) states (as of 2 am ET today) that the movie is available now,
and it is. Additionally, the director posted the trailer on X on April
11. I think it's likely that this was released on April 10.]
