“Thanks so much”. They seem to always say that—in an over-sincere (close to patronising) way—after crosses (weather, other reports, etc). It always seems very out-of-place to me.

As if new epsiodes of The Simpsons aren’t bad enough—and they are—on the episode that aired here yesterday, JABF10 (’Marge Gamer’), the whole thing was sped up by 5-10% (I assume this was done locally). The end result? Ridiculous and distracting high-pitched voices. Very not cool. I assume that’s to fit more material into a small amount of time, but that’s stupid because it was a particularly terrible episode to begin with that could have been easily shortened (or, shockingly enough, they could have shown less advertisements).
Compare the original, sped-up version to the slowed-down, ‘how it should sound’ version.
