I am watching films that were made for TCL, the largest TV manufacturer on Earth as part of a pilot program designed to normalize AI movies and TV shows for an audience that it plans to monetize explicitly with targeted advertising and whose internal data suggests that the people who watch its free television streaming network are too lazy to change the channel. I know this is the plan because TCL’s executives just told the audience that this is the plan.

Get ready for an onslaught of incredibly shitty shows & films, cynically created via AI for no artistic purpose whatsoever. I've always loathed the term "content" when applied to media, as if it's just manufactured sludge sold by the pound.

But in this case? Yeah. It's content.

Enjoy(?) an example of one of the forthcoming TCL+ turdlings below, Next Stop Paris:

Relistening to the cellar letters and nate buddy, darling, my sweet boy man person, you would get killed so fast in a classic horror movie

The Cellar Letters has a banging theme song that appears once only to never be heard again.

Until now.

Testing Rebelle 7 Pro, have decided that I'm getting it as soon as possible. Whether it be by convincing my folks or raising commission money.

It's SO cool.

Look at Jorge coming through to save the day again!

I love one cartel running/widower/single dad/lawyer!

Though I fear Romana is gonna be on his ass for going out of his way to help her AGAIN 😭

Love that my smart TV, made to be a Netflix box, still processes the embedded closed captions from VHS tapes.

The Cellar Letters where everything's the same except Nate doesn't know how to drive roundabouts and that's why he can't leave
