When I read a brilliant, clearly articulated essay like the one below by @SachaBaronCohen in this week’s @TIME magazine, I find myself longing for the days when traditional media, especially print magazines, were massively influential. *Everyone* should read it!

Replying to @MeTV
@MeTV+ (the plus matters) runs a double-bill of @TwinPeaks on Sunday nights. On one of tonight’s episodes we meet FBI Agent Denise (played by a pre-Mulder @davidduchovny)! Here’s Denise with old colleague Dale Cooper (Kyle McLaughlin).

When did the McDonald’s brain trust decide to move from welcoming to foreboding? Looks like a maximum security detention center. #smh @McDonalds

Wow! Nikki started the show by skewering CBS News! (I’m impressed.) #GoldenGlobes

There was a short-lived CBS sitcom in 1992 about a TV weatherman in New Haven, CT who did weather reports with the help of a little talking dragon. At the time of its premiere I interviewed New Haven’s real-life weatherman Geoff Fox for Inside Media magazine. #RIPGeoffFox #WTNH

Loved this Mr. and Mrs. Smith thing. I hope it continues and that this story doesn’t deteriorate into another Carly mess. #GH

Lulu was talking to #DorianLord! And Tracy was recently talking about #BlairCramer with ex-husband #MartinGrey. More evidence that @onelifetolive might return? ABC (or Hulu) could do much worse. We need a soap in NYC. #GH @GeneralHospital #OLTL #OneLifetoLive @robinstrasser

.@Peacock is really leveling up with entertainment programming. This week it presented the 30th @CriticsChoice Awards and the 50th Anniversary @nbcsnl reunion concert live from Radio City Music Hall. (Why on earth weren’t both of those spectacular events also on NBC?) #SNL50

With all our networks and platforms and such why can’t the States have a single weekly primetime entertainment-focused, celebrity fueled talk program like The Graham Norton Show? (That’s Timothee Chalamet, Colman Domingo, Andrew Garfield and James Corden on Norton’s couch below.)

So nice to watch an original, holiday-themed episode of a long-running soap opera on Christmas day. Feels like “old” times. Thank you, @Peacock and Days of Our Lives. @DaysPeacock @PaulTelfer @DaysHayes #DOOL #DaysofourLives #LinseyGodfrey

Is it possible that the legendary Susan Seaforth Hayes will *not* win a Daytime Emmy this year? Nah! @DaysPeacock @DaysHayes @peacock
