I've been sent a LI connection request from a rep of this company. I started a purpose-driven…read morebusiness a year ago, but I used to be in cybersecurity so everything is suspect to me. Especially with so many scams out there. Glad I did some reading. What gave me the ick is how they present themselves as a television station and media company, not a marketing company, and based on collective complaints and reviews (here and the BBB) appear to attempt to manipulate by flattering egos when they could just straight-up offer their marketing services without the love-bombing part to get you buzzed before dropping a cost. Just seems odd. If they legit offer a good service this dog and pony show seems to be sabotaging their reputation. Just some friendly feedback.

That photo brings back memories. I once ran into Chuck Scarborough when I was out shopping in…read moreWestchester. He was so polite and kind towards everyone. I was starstruck so I didn't say anything. When you're a kid, it's so cool to see a celebrity in real life. The whole thing was so normal, no pretentious behavior or "do you know who I am" stuff. Chuck Scarborough was one of New York's greatest broadcast journalists - so consistently professional and reassuring. After over 50 years, he finally retired. Whoever hired him at NBC made the right call. NBC also produced the show Law and Order - great series especially the ones with Jerry Orbach as Detective Lennie Briscoe (one of the best actors in the history of crime television; he unfortunately passed in 2004). And Late Night too. Lots of great shows on NBC.

NBC is my favorite broadcasting channel in my basic cable line up. I watch the morning shows and…read morethe late night shows. My favorite is Last Call with Carson Daley. I'm so unhappy it's going off the air after 17 years and 2000 shows. I'm watching the summer reruns and hoping I can find it on UTUBE in the future. I would love to watch the old shows from years ago. Watching it I loved to vicariously visit the Troubadour and other music venues. I got to see unknown bands and learn a lot about the latest movies, actors, comedians, and creative talents in the entertainment industry. I'm going to miss Last Call a lot. I hope NBC or another network develops a show similar. We need another show like American Bandstand or Soul Train but with the additional range of interests that were provided on Last Call. Enough said. I'm a fan of NBC anyway. For Now! Yelpers remember when I was on Jimmy Fallon Show. So much fun! See my profile photo. I'm going to try to get tickets to another show some day. If you're going to be in NYC try to visit NBC. Take a tour. You may bump into a famous face in the process. There's live music on the Plaza at Rockefeller Center. Check the Summer Concerts out too.

Sometimes their programs touch my life on my basic cable channels. I'm particularly interested in anything they have to say about Hockey! Here's a press release from ESPN today.

The self-proclaimed "Worldwide Leader in Sports" is indispensable if you're into March Madness or…read morethe NHL but there are clouds on the horizon as their Disney owners are choking on billions of dollars in rights fees (NFL, NBA and MLB) that dwindling cable subscription carriage fees and declining ad revenues are straining to support. Not that anyone should rush to sponsor a telethon for this cash cow but their days of being a highly paid staple in cable lineups are drawing to a close. Soon they may be jettisoned by Disney meaning you'll finally be able to stream the full spectrum of ESPN networks without a cable bundle and for many, that will be the final snip in the cable cord. As an avid sports fan I find most of their coverage a hypertensive, over-the-top, scream-a-thon somehow believing the louder they shriek (or the hotter their take) the more you'll stay glued to the set. And let's not even talk about SportsCenter whose highlight reel has taught almost three generations of athletes to preen and posture for the camera honing their catchphrases. On balance, Hockey and the NFL are reasonable but as a baseball fan their weekly games are best experienced on mute. As for the NBA, their coverage (along with ABC) has been a lost cause for quite some time. It's hard to believe that their first program way back in 1979 was log rolling financed through credit card cash advances by Bill Rasmussen who founded the network. I have a feeling he has paid off his credit cards. Five stars just for the balz it took to do it.

Together with my friend Phil, we formed Art Kurtz-Phil Manners Productions to develop and produce Public access Television programs. Our weekly show, The Game Show Block Party runs on QPTV and on BCAT TV in Brooklyn.

I also like that the post production suites are updated regularly and useful if you wanna keep everything in house. I've done green screen projects, live streams as well as live broadcasting from their studio and the quality was on par with traditional broadcast networks. In fact, HBO has used them because they are that good. I really like using them and their rates are really fair.
