Outland

"In the closet, no-one can hear you squeal. Can a group of openly gay but closeted nerds find where they really belong?" With what seems like possibly the quirkiest angle for a TV show to date, Outland is a 6-part comedy series full of surprises. It's got heart, warmth and enough fake penises to sink a ship.

Hungry Beast Season 3

Hungry Beast has very quickly established itself as an entertaining, informative and challenging look at precepts and issues facing all of us in today's society.

60 Minutes Class of 2011

The return of 60 Minutes in 2011 offers more than just the usual dose of hard-hitting current affairs we've come to expect from it. There's a new recruit in Allison Langdon, and an intentional attempt to connect with viewers more than ever before. The social media whirlwind that is Twitter has hit the newsroom, and it will likely help attract a new audience seeking to interact with the show & it's reporters. "It (Twitter) is connecting us much faster to feedback and each other. We're pushing our twitter interaction on 60 Minutes a lot this year," said Michael Usher when he spoke with MolksTVTalk earlier this week. Journalists … [Read more...]

It's all in place to ensure people feel comfortable getting their news & insight from some of the best in the business. "I think fundamentally we'll be honest with our audience and hope to engender more trust," said Hamish Macdonald, Senior Foreign Correspondent for #6PM, when he spoke with MolksTVTalk earlier this week. "I know there is plenty of chatter in the twitersphere about #6PM. We probably best describe it as 'public affairs' TV. We will cover the big stories of the day, but … [Read more...]
