I wish FOX in the US would have the sense not to start new shows till after the World Series. No wonder why shows lose ratings, if the show isn't on for a few weeks people lose interest and move on...

How can it not be the best baseball league in the world, who else is there to compete with?

Sorry, never saw your response. The Japanese league, Cuban league... I mean, I don't even understand what you're saying. And if there were no other leagues, wouldn't the name "World Series" be even more apt, given that the best from across the world would have to come to the MLB?

Why stop at World Series? :D

Decent episode. But why was there a flat screen tv in the house at the end when it clearly hadn't been lived in for years. Major balls up there!

I loved the episode, but that was literally the first thing I thought as soon as he took the sheet off :laugh:

Unrelated: the husband in the episode was Milton from Office Space (or Gordon from Dodgeball).

I thought the samething. Walter hasn't been in that house in about 20yrs since he was in the mental place for 17yrs and then Olivia pulled him out "3yrs ago" so who was there watching nice brand new LCDs?

Eitherway, good episode though but what's this about 2 month break? :no: (N)

They start filming these episodes in the spring to summer, they don't film every week when shows come out. Filming is usually 3-6 months and then editing takes up the rest. So it's just a break for breaking purposes.

That's not even remotely true, I have no idea where you got your information.

Production on almost every TV show doesn't begin until summer, at the earliest. Filming almost never takes place in the spring unless it's an atypical situation, such as Breaking Bad shooting it's final season early. Filming doesn't "usually [last] 3-6 months and then editing takes up the rest." They don't film and then edit -- they film, the editing team edits, and they continue filming. This is how every television show I've ever heard of operates. It's a process where they continuously shoot and edit. That's why you almost never have the same director a whole season on a show -- it's far too much work to produce, film, and edit, and wouldn't work very well.

Also, filming is almost always done on a weekly basis, unless there's a scheduled break or an unforeseen problem (Alcatraz and Awake recently shot their first few episodes for the fall before shutting production down for the writing team to catch up, for instance).

Simply read up on the production of television shows on a site like, for instance, Deadline. It will give you all this information.

Edit: Take, for instance, the fact that a guest actor wasn't even signed to a deal until July for the season premiere -- http://en.wikipedia....ge)#cite_note-5

how is this question brought up every year? do people not remember how television works...this has happened this way for basically forever...yet every year around the holidays, summer, weeks off to stretch until May, there's always people going "OMG!!! my TV shows...where are they going? I don't get it...don't take them away...durrrrrrrrrr"

      Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.

      Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4

      Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
