You can always tell it's pledge time when PBS is all boomer music and pseudo-science.
I like the ruffles.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What Boston station? I see Ed Sullivan. And some Covered Bridge thing.

Seriously. I still don't understand how that works. Shouldn't it be like sweeps, with the best of the regular programming?

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Just like you can tell a KPFA pledge drive by its solid day of Grateful Dead programming.

WGBH. Oh, it IS Ed Sullivan. The TiVo guide was saying John Sebastian.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Have you ever been so frustrated about a situation that it makes you sick? A situation you have absolutely no control over, no way to get more information, but yet it will have a direct impact on you. So frustrated that you avoid the people involved and have a happy relationship with your bottle of Lorazapam.
CHRIST yes. This is what is happening with my tenant situation in MA. I'm starting to get spontaneous nosebleeds and burst blood vessels in my eye from all the strain and stress I have about it. And I can't tell Tom. But I need to steal his Ativan every once in a while. It's been going on since late August and I think it might be the end of me.

Also, Suzi, I am so fucking sorry you're dealing with this feeling, because no one should have to.

I'm watching a show on Discovery Health about morbidly obese teens. One of them has a mother who is constantly ASKING her son if he wants something to eat. I wish I could reach through the TV and strangle her.

Our PBS pledge drive is full of boomer music, self-help gurus, and Celtic Woman. The last few years, though, they've had to make public promises on Saturday night that despite all the "special" programming, Dr. Who will still air at its normal time. Apparently the switchboards got nasty the one year they pre-empted the Doctor.
