My pal @rachellichtman.bsky.social has the golden touch of a pre-NBC Freddie Silverman, the savvy swagger of every Quinn Martin Production, the shamanistic thereminic cathode-ray shimmer of all the NBC Mystery Movies rolled into one, & that's just for starters. Don't miss this great AV Club piece!

Had a long and lovely chat with @rachellichtman.bsky.social the other day, which has now taken the form of this "fall preview" of all the way-out offerings on tap at @programme4.tv's next round of live shows

One of the coolest things happening in TV. No one is really doing it like @rachellichtman.bsky.social

PROGRAMME 4, created by @rachellichtman.bsky.social , is a fake TV broadcast that is subtle, specific, and often laugh-out-loud funny. (And I mean specific: one of its big laughs is about the lead singer of Procol Harum.)

I imagine the Golden Sands where these skits are set as either being in an impossible liminal space between Orange County and San Diego County in California, or way down the New Jersey shore, south of Atlantic City.

It is a tribute to @rachellichtman.bsky.social that it works perfectly either way.
