Hallmark+ is among the channels Roku is offering on sale until January 2. $1.99/month for 2 months.

Roku is offering 30+ streaming channels for $1.99/ month for a limited time. Most offers seem to be 2 or 3 months at the sale price.

The Hoopla service through my public library offers a “BingePass” of Hallmark+. You can watch as much as you want for one week.

I was rather suspicious of some of the bakes that the celebrities presented. First they are saying they have never baked before, then they present a decently baked and nicely decorated cake. I couldn’t help but think that they had gotten some off-camera help. There were some bad bakes, but not the huge failures there should have been from self-proclaimed non-bakers who are working under a time constraint. JMHO

Paul seemed happier/more lighthearted this season. Maybe he wasn’t a big fan of all of the ridiculous bakes of the past? I felt bad for Dylan; I had to keep reminding myself he is only 20, he looks so much older. I like the fact that the all seem genuinely happy for the other when they do well and sad when they do badly. It does my heart good to know that there are kind people like that out in the world.

I really don’t see any difference in the way Kasie is written and the way Abby was written. Both experts in whatever field was necessary to help solve the episode’s crime.

I don’t know what map the announcers are looking at, but Detroit is not “due west” of Cleveland - it is, in fact, a fair bit north as well.

Coke and Oreo are two flavors that never needed to be combined. I am glad the cookies and pop were gifted to me, not purchased by me, but now what do I do with the rest of them.

Figuring out how to watch a baseball game should not involve more work than writing a college research paper. An email from the Tigers “marketing staff” this morning just says the game will be shown on TBS. So which is it?! TBS, TruTV & Max? Or one of them? If only one, which one?

The anchor lady on my local news says the Tigers series will be streaming on MAX, but an article I read said that only select games will be on MAX. Anyone have MAX that can confirm or rebut the availability?

YES!!! Tigers sweep the Astros!!! Final score 5-2.

I spent a few hours messing with an OTA antenna. It took trying tv’s in 3 rooms, with windows facing 3 different directions, but I finally got one that gets a local ABC station. YAY!! I am not a follower of the other major sports - do they also divide up the playoff games amongst so many stations/networks?

Not going to happen! I feel bad for the Sox fans, it sucks to watch your team lose. And to lose soo many is just awful. As soon as the Tigers won, my own little orange & white tiger went nuts. Coincidence? I think not.

I have been a Tigers fan my whole life, but if they were to move I think that would be the end. I would probably root for the “Toledo Tigers” (assuming the team went with a temporary home similar to what the A’s are doing) while the current players are still with the team. But, by the time they reach their permanent home in 4-5 years most of the Detroit Tigers would be gone and I just wouldn’t care enough to root for the Somewhere Else Tigers.

Thank you, ProudMary! The only thing I can clearly understand, though, is that MLB really doesn’t want people to watch the postseason. I know I can stream ESPN and I might be able to get my local Fox and ABC stations on my antenna, but my god they are making it difficult.
