Commitment to realism on film and television is more thorough and nitpicky than it’s ever been, mainly because its audience is also more nitpicky than we’ve been in the past. If you’re going to show us “grounded” superhero stories and dragons that obey the laws of aerodynamics we’ll be on the lookout for anything that doesn’t fit in with this commitment to realism. Sometimes people can get a little too nitpicky — Who cares if the Star Wars spaceships make noise when there’s no air (and therefore no sound) in space? — and in those cases it’s better to just let the experience wash over you and a...

Tonight is Pat Sajak’s final night hosting Wheel of Fortune. The 77-year-old TV personality has been a mainstay on the game show for over 40 years, a TV record.

The Price Is Righthas been on the air in some form or fashion since 1972 — and that’s a revival of a show that originally aired in the 1950s and 1960s. So we’re talking more than 50 years of episodes. That’s thousands of shows, and thousands of Showcases, the climactic battle between each show’s two winning contestants to see who can take home even more fabulous prizes.
