Day One

This is Day One of this new blog site, Progressives Chat.

I am new to having a blog. So, I will not say too much.

I encourage an open flow of comments from participants—even if a comment is not related to the topic of the day.

I hope for success with Progressives Chat.

Speaking of “Day One,” today is the first day of the official and new 2017–18 television season. New series. Returning series. Broadcast networks ABC, CBS, CW, Fox, Ion, MNT, NBC, PBS.

It may not have escaped people about some politics—or even themes—which have a presence in some television series. One such series I regularly watch is CBS’s Scorpion. It is not a series regularly into politics. (It’s based oh-so-loosely on the life of Scorpion Computer Services CEO Walter O’Brien.) But, Team Scorpion is contracted by Homeland. Last season, in its election-themed episode, “We’re Gonna Need a Bigger Vote,” the Chinese were interfering in the United States presidential election. (In real life, the charge—at least by Hillary Clinton and establishment Democrats—was that it was Russia.) ABC’s Designated Survivor has an independent president of the United States. It has some notions of how Washington, D.C. can function combined with how elected politicians operate. In other words, this is all entertainment.
