This Week's Local Movie/TV Shoots

The television show Elementary is filming in The Gardens Tuesday, reports @AmandaKohut on Twitter. And Blue Bloods is also filming in these parts this week, she says, but isn't sure of the date.

How ironic. I wonder if we Time Warner subscribers will ever get to see these episodes filmed right here in our own backyards given that they're shown on the forbidden network known as CBS.

Time Warner May Drop CBS Thursday

Sorry, but I find this whole thing laughable. I saw a commercial the other day from Time Warner trying to rile up viewers in its dispute with CBS. Time Warner is threatening to drop CBS here in NYC over some compensation dispute—who really gives a shit what it is, both companies have more money than God—and the commercial was trying to get viewers to support Time Warner, to understand why it may drop CBS, to get us to put pressure on CBS somehow for Time Warner. Poor, poor Time Warner! As if we don't have enough problems of our own, we're supposed to go to bat for them? Puhleease! They have got to be kidding.

Update: The current contract has been extended through 5 p.m. Monday.
