Take a Walk 06/30/2023
Welcome back to my daily walk diaries. Today we walked around between 5th ave and Park Ave because I was going to check out the Morgan Library & Museum (which if you live in NYC and you didn't know they have free friday's, they do). Anyways I was a little early for the entry time so I walked around and here were the buildings that caught my eye. If you want to listen to the music I was listening to while you read this, I made a playlist of it. Buckle in, this might be a long one.
Edit: As I was writing this entry I accidentally deleted ~1.5 hrs of work so Im going to keep this rewrite real brief. sry :/
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Robb House
Built 1892
Architect: Stanford White
Fellow Architect/architectural critic of the time Russel Sturgis (who I love) said of this building, "not a palace, but a fit dwelling house for a first-rate citizen."
Curious as to whether one of those medallions on the third floor was replaced since they're slightly different.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Haviland Building/Lightolier Building/Morgan Lofts
Built 1912, unknown architect
The interesting split facades and bell tower are without a doubt what grabbed my eye.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Funny enough they also stood out on the back of the building when I took a trip around the block without even realizing they were the same building!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Next we have Tiffany & Co.'s second building, built after their previous cast-iron store at Union Square, and as a posthumous completion in honor of Tiffany founder, Charles Tiffany.
Built 1905
Architect: Stanford White! (yes again)
Just look at those Corinthian orders! This building is massive.
Tumblr media
(Now is probably a good time to bring up my camera situation.) I've been shooting these on my iPhone 8 mainly because my only other camera is film, and because of it's convenience. However I may end up getting another camera so that my pictures don't come out with such poor quality. (I wish I remember how I worded this during the first take of this post, it was much better)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the CUNY Graduates Building, formerly known as its original identity the B. Altman department store. The past 3 buildings in fact were part of a push up 5th ave from Barclay's St downtown where Haviland's, Tiffany's, and Altman all had stores previously.
Built 1906
Architect: Trowbridge & Livingston
The back of the Altman building has this interesting moment where seemingly 3 portions of the building meet. I say 3 instead of the obvious division of the top addition only because if you look closely at the roof overhang on the left, it turns 90 degrees into the building before the 4th window in.
Regardless this transition between is artfully done both between the front and the back, as well as between the base and the upper addition in the reference but not direct copying of window/facade themes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Stewart Building
Built 1914
Architect: Whitney Warren
(Bonus picture of the proximity to the Empire State Building)
Right across the street from the Tiffany building lies this beautifully ornamented loft/department building with terracotta tiles said to resemble Josiah Wedgwood jasperware pottery.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Before we get to the Chrysler building this building caught my eye with it's geometric ornamentation on the facade of the building, which I assumed was to fit in amongst the foothills of such an icon in Art Deco Architecture (the Chrysler Building).
This is the Socony-Mobil Building
Built in 1956
Architect: Harrison & Abramovitz
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Icon in question, The Chrysler Building.
Built 1930
Architect: William Van Allen
There is a wealth of knowledge on the internet about this art deco beauty, but I'm just going to give you my brief takeaway.
First, that entry way!!! I'm in love, its so grand and those angles are so pleasing to look at. There is one on each side of the building facing the street and boy oh boy it does not lose it's charm the second time you see it.
I also wanted to point out that, um, the base of the building is not centered????? I had literally no idea prior to this but if you look, in the third picture there are three bays of windows to the right of the center and five bays to the left. No your eyes aren't tricking you that's really how it looks in person.
In the tune of imperfections to such a seemingly pristine design, the backwall isn't actually perpendicular to the road or to the rest of the building. It wanders off at some other angle as seen in the fourth picture.
I give it a 9/10 still, it's imperfections are even more reason to love it. They give it an organic beauty that art deco even tends to reference and emphasize, the beauty in natural forms.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Right around the corner of the Chrysler Building is Tudor City, and here are just some highlights. In the order of most difficult things to photograph, these buildings are all built up in a style I like to call the princess tower style with an elaborate penthouse on top. Here are some of the highlights of this group of blocks on the east side.
45 Tudor City Pl. (pics 1 & 2) aka Prospect Tower & St. Albans Church Built 1927, the worlds first residential housing skyscraper Architect: H. Douglas Ives
Around the corner (which regrettably is not pictured) is Harry Osborne's penthouse in the Spider-man movies at 5 Tudor City Pl. aka Windsor Tower
The Church of the Covenant (pic 3) Built 1871 Architect: J. Cleveland Cady
Woodstock Tower (pic 4) Built 1929 Architect: H. Douglas Ives
(pics 5-7) The Cloister & The Manor Built 1927 & 1928 Architect: H. Douglas Ives I think this is also an interesting marrying of facade courses.

Wiktionary Daily Article 24th January 2022
The New York Stock Exchange Building is the headquarters of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). It is composed of two connected structures in Lower Manhattan, New York City. One part, the original structure at 18 Broad Street, was designed in the Classical Revival style by George B. Post; the other is a 23-story office annex at 11 Wall Street, designed by Trowbridge & Livingston in a similar style. The NYSE had occupied the site on Broad Street since 1865 but had to expand its previous building several times, and so the structure at 18 Broad Street was erected between 1901 and 1903. Within two decades, the new building had become overcrowded, and the annex at 11 Wall Street was added between 1920 and 1922. The original structure's colonnade is an icon of the NYSE; behind it is the main trading floor, a 72-foot-tall (22 m) rectangular space. The building was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1978 and  a city landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1985.

The Charlotte M. Tytus House - 10 East 77th Street
Not only was Richard W. Buckley a partner with Robert McCafferty in the development firm of  McCafferty & Buckley; he was the firm’s architect—a significant cost savings.  In 1895 the partners started construction of seven high-end homes at Nos. 4 through 16 East 77th Street.  Unlike the nearly identical high-stoop brownstones erected a generation earlier; McCafferty & each of Buckley’s handsome neo-Renaissance style residences, completed in 1897, was given its own personality.  Perhaps to compensate for the sloop of the street, the two eastern-most houses were designed on the English basement plan, which provided them with high stone stoops.  
Like its neighbors, the central house, No. 10, was 25-feet wide and rose five stories.  An American basement dwelling, its entrance was just two steps above sidewalk level.  The ground floor was clad in a seemingly random arrangement of small, rough-cut blocks.  The understated entrance and the service doorway flanked a window.  Directly above a wide, curved oriel all but engulfed the second floor where planar-faced limestone was interrupted by bands of undressed stone.  The upper three floors were faced in sandy-colored Roman brick and trimmed in limestone.  A pretty frieze of bows and swags ran below a band of egg-and-dart molding under the bracketed cornice.
No. 10 is the centerpiece of the odd-numbered row.  Record & Guide, April 11, 1896 (copyright expired)
In 1897 McCafferty & Buckley sold the house to Charlotte Mathilda Tytus, widow of Edward Jefferson Tytus who had died in 1881 at the age of 35.  Tytus had been a partner in the wholesale paper business Tytus, Van Buren & Company.  Moving into the new house with Charlotte was her 20-year-old son, Robb de Peyster Tytus, who graduated from Yale that same year.
It was not long before Charlotte addressed what she apparently felt was a lack of light within the house.  On November 18, 1898 architect W. H. Whittal filed plans for a "new glass and iron skylight."  It was no small project, costing Charlotte the equivalent of more than $28,000 today.
An accomplished artist, Robb's sketches appeared in magazines.  Many of them depicted scenes he captured while traveling abroad with his mother.  He became fascinated with Egypt and, subsequently, archaeology. Before long the Tytuses visited that country annually.  The Washington Times mentioned in 1903 that Robb "is not connected in business in any way in Egypt, but has a dahabieh, on which he and his mother take their winter excursion up the Nile."
The year 1903 was momentous for Robb de Peyster Titus.  The New-York Tribune reported that Yale University "gave him a degree of A. M. for research work in Egypt" and on May 19 he was married to Grace Seeley Henop in Grace Church.  The New Haven, Connecticut newspaper The Daily Morning Journal and Courier called it "one of the largest church weddings of the season."  The New-York Tribune chimed in saying "The church was crowded with friends and acquaintances, among whom the old Knickerbocker element was largely represented."  Indeed, among the families mentioned were Livingstons, Barnes, Stokes, Schieffelin, Gallatin, Duncan, and Potter.
Newspapers nationwide picked up on a detail of Grace's wardrobe.  The South Carolina paper The County Record noted "The buckles on the bride's shoes were of rhine stones, the same worn by Dolly Madison at her wedding."  The New-York Tribune reported "A part of the honeymoon will be spent at the bridegroom's camp in the Adirondacks, and afterward the couple will visit China and Japan, proceeding by way of India and the Red Sea to Egypt for a trip up the Nile next winter."
Robb de Peyster Tytus would go on to have a celebrated, if relatively brief career.  With an English archaeologist he made several excavations in Egypt.  The New York Times later recalled "he obtained from the Khedive of Egypt a concession to make explorations at Luxor, where he found, among other things, that King Amenhotep had built eight bathrooms of cement, with tubs twelve feet long, six feet wide and eighteen inches deep, for the use of the royal family."  In 1907 he was elected to the Massachusetts Legislature.  He and Grace purchased a 1,500-acre estate in Tyringham, Massachusetts where he built a country villa costing more than $2.5 in today's dollars.  He died of tuberculosis of the throat in August 1913.
In the meantime, with her son gone, Charlotte left the East 77th Street house, selling it to J. Horace Harding in March the following year.  In reporting on the sale on April 2, 1904 the Real Estate Record & Guide noted "One of the fixtures of the house is a large pipe organ."
Born in Philadelphia, Harding had entered the banking profession at the age of 20.  In 1898 he married Dorothea Barney, and was taken into her father's banking firm, Charles D. Barney & Co. (it would later become Smith-Barney).  By the time the couple moved into the 77th Street house he was a partner with J. P. Morgan, the chairman of the board of the American Express Company, and a director in two dozen others.
He and Dorothea had four children, Charles, Catherine, Laura, and William Barclay.  The couple were close friends with Henry Clay Frick and his wife and traveled with them to Europe on art-buying trips.  The 77th Street house was filled with irreplaceable masterpieces and antique objets d'art.  
Harding was an early automobile enthusiast.  On March 24, 1905 The Sun reported on a shocking turn of events--the Morris Park raceway, long a haunt of the fashionable horse set, would be the scene of an automobile race.  "In the wake of the horse comes the motor car," the article said.  "The tracks of the famous ground where thousands have watched the thoroughbreds is to become a new home for automobile racing this summer."
Highly involved in the revolution was Harding, who had helped form the Morris Park Motor Club earlier that year.  The Sun reported "J. Horace Harding, the Wall Street broker, and J. S. Bunting, both members of the Automobile Club of America, will be vice-president and treasurer, respectively."
His love of mechanized transportation had gotten him in trouble for speeding earlier that year.  On February 20 The Sun reported "Bicycle Policeman Rensselaer saw a machine in which J. Horace Harding, the banker, and a chauffeur were riding.  After a short chase they were overtaken and Mr. Harding went to the station and bailed out the driver, George Sailor."
It would appear that Harding had always intended his family's stay at No. 10 to be temporary.  On November 15, 1905 The Evening Post had reported that construction had begun on a six-story mansion on Fifth Avenue designed by C. H P. Gilbert.  Now, on March 7, 1908 the Record & Guide reported that Harding had sold No. 10.  "He moves around the corner to 953 5th av, a beautiful modern residence."  As an interesting side note, the couple escaped almost certain death by a caprice of fate four years later.  Having toured Egypt with the Fricks, J. Horace and Dorothea took the parlor suite on the new R. M. S. Titanic after J. P. Morgan, who had initially booked the massive space--Suite B 52/54/56--changed his plans.  But nearly at the last minute J. Horace was able to book an earlier ship.  Their suite was then given to the White Star's director, J. Bruce Ismay.
In the meantime, stock broker Edmund Q. Trowbridge, senior member of Trowbridge & Co., was the buyer of the 77th Street house, title to which was put in his wife's name.  He and his wife, the former Gertrude Harrison, had been married in London on July 1, 1901.  Edmund had graduated from Yale University two years earlier. They had two daughters, Nancy and Barbara Harrison Trowbridge.  The family maintained a summer house in Guilford, Connecticut.
The Trowbridges would remain at No. 10 for years.  Barbara attended the exclusive Foxcroft School and was introduced to society in the fall of 1923 at the Colony Club.  On May 15, 1925 her mother hosted a luncheon during which her engagement to Joseph Potter Murphy was announced.  The wedding was held in the 77th Street house on November 4, 1925 with Nancy acting as her sister's maid of honor.  The New York Times noted "Autumn foliage, palms and chrysanthemums decorated the house."
On July 8, 1927 The New York Sun reported that Gertrude had sold the house.  The purchaser was John Howie Wright, president of the Dry Goods Credit Adjustment Corporation and editor of the magazine Postage.  The family's summer home was Seaside Cottage at East Hampton, Long Island.
The Wright's daughter, Anne, enjoyed a privileged upbringing.  On August 26, 1932 The East Hampton Star reported "Forty young summer residents were the guests of Miss Anne Wright on Saturday, at a party arranged by Mrs. John Howie Wright at the Devon Yacht Club, in celebration of her daughter's 12th birthday."
The house was the scene of a society wedding on September 4, 1937.  The Mount Vernon, New York newspaper The Daily Argus reported that Betty Devine, Mrs. Wright's niece, would was married to George Byron Smith, 2nd, here.  Both of their families lived in Pelham.  Anne was a bridesmaid.  
As Anne grew the social spotlight turned to her.  Her coming out was celebrated in the fall of 1938.  On November 14, 1938 The New York Sun reported, "Miss Anne Wright, debutante daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Wright of 10 East Seventy-seventh street...will participate in the cavalcade of dances to be staged by Ned Wayburn as the feature of the Miami-Biltmore fashion show and ball to be held on December 16 at the Waldorf-Astoria as a benefit for the Goddard Neighborhood Center."
And a month later, on December 6, the newspaper wrote, "Miss Anne Wright, member of the junior committee for the Caucasian Allaverdy Ball to be held at the Plaza on December 9, agave a tea yesterday at her home, 10 East Seventy-seventh street, for the other members of the committee."
The Wrights sold No. 10 in July 1943, and in 1950 it was purchased by Daniel Saidenberg and his wife, Eleanor Block.  Although Saidenberg's career had been as a cellist and conductor, and Eleanor had been a professional dancer in Chicago, they were now focused on modern European art.  Eleanor had been working as a private art dealer since soon after moving to New York in 1943.  Now the ground floor of No. 10 became the Saidenberg Gallery.
Theirs was a significant venue.  In December 1955 they opened a Picasso exhibition, and they showed the works of artists like Paul Klee and George Braque.  On November 10, 1959 The New York Times' John Canaday wrote "Picasso is with us again, this time in an exhibition called 'Faces and Figures' at the Saidenberg Gallery, 10 East Seventy-seventh Street.  For some reason the master's social aplomb is more apparent than usual.  The seventeen paintigs are dominated by half a dozen of such witty elegance that the charging bull of modern art appears to have been caught in a moment of atypical amiability."
Among the Picasso paintings in the 1959 exhibition was the 1909 Portrait of Manuel Pallares (from the collection of the Detroit Institute of Arts)
The Saidenbergs sold No. 10 in January 1964 to the Government of the Union of Burma for use as its Permanent Mission to the United Nations.  The New York Times reported the $300,000 price was paid in cash.  Now the Permanent Mission of Myanmar, it continues to own the property.

And a month later, on December 6, the newspaper wrote, "Miss Anne Wright, member of the junior committee for the Caucasian Allaverdy Ball to be held at the Plaza on December 9, agave a tea yesterday at her home, 10 East Seventy-seventh street, for the other members of the committee."
The Wrights sold No. 10 in July 1943, and in 1950 it was purchased by Daniel Saidenberg and his wife, Eleanor Block.  Although Saidenberg's career had been as a cellist and conductor, and Eleanor had been a professional dancer in Chicago, they were now focused on modern European art.  Eleanor had been working as a private art dealer since soon after moving to New York in 1943.  Now the ground floor of No. 10 became the Saidenberg Gallery.
Theirs was a significant venue.  In December 1955 they opened a Picasso exhibition, and they showed the works of artists like Paul Klee and George Braque.  On November 10, 1959 The New York Times' John Canaday wrote "Picasso is with us again, this time in an exhibition called 'Faces and Figures' at the Saidenberg Gallery, 10 East Seventy-seventh Street.  For some reason the master's social aplomb is more apparent than usual.  The seventeen paintigs are dominated by half a dozen of such witty elegance that the charging bull of modern art appears to have been caught in a moment of atypical amiability."
Among the Picasso paintings in the 1959 exhibition was the 1909 Portrait of Manuel Pallares (from the collection of the Detroit Institute of Arts)
The Saidenbergs sold No. 10 in January 1964 to the Government of the Union of Burma for use as its Permanent Mission to the United Nations.  The New York Times reported the $300,000 price was paid in cash.  Now the Permanent Mission of Myanmar, it continues to own the property.

Hotel History: Asian American Hotel Owners Association 
Tumblr media
The Asian American Hotel Owners Association (AAHOA) is a trade association that represents hotel owners. As of 2018, AAHOA has approximately 18,000 members who incredibly own about half the 50,000 hotels in the United States. If you bear in mind that Indian Americans constitute less than one percent of Americas population, the conquest of this business niche is extraordinary. Furthermore, about 70% of all Indian hotel owners are named Patel, a surname that shows that they are members of a Gujarati Hindu subcaste.
How did this economic miracle come to pass? The first Indian motel owner in the United States is said to have been an illegal immigrant named Kanjibhai Desai who managed to buy the Goldfield Hotel in downtown San Francisco in the early 1940s.
Some twenty-six years later in 1949, another Asian American of Indian descent came to the United States from his home near the city of Surat during the first wave of legal immigration from India. Bhulabhai V. Patel picked apricots and grapes in Northern California and worked at various jobs until he saved enough to purchase the 108- room William Penn Hotel in San Francisco in 1960. By 1996, Bhulabhai owned nine properties in Northern California with his son, Raman and grandson Pramod. At the time, he was amazed by the rapid growth of the Indian American lodging community. “It started with one hotel”, he said, “Now we’ve got thousands.”
“Patel” means farmer or landowner in Gujarat where the Patels are the original and largest clan. In order to facilitate tax collections, the British delineated, reassigned and renamed some of them “Amin” (the farm managers) and others “Desai” (those who kept the books). It is said that the Patels have a commerce gene in their blood and the anecdotal evidence seems to bear this out.
In the mid-1970s, Patels from India, Africa and Asia began to emigrate to the United States where any immigrant willing to invest $40,000 in a business could apply for permanent residence, the first step to citizenship. There were limited opportunities for such an investment. Restaurants required the Hindu Gujaratis to handle meat, an uncomfortable activity. Furthermore, a restaurant required one-on-one interaction with guests, confusing for newly-arrived immigrants. But distressed roadside motels could be acquired outright for $40,000. In addition, the motel industry was slumping badly because of the oil embargo and the resultant nationwide shortage of gasoline.
One Patel pioneer reported that a motel “… is easy to run. You don’t need fluent English, just the will to work long hours. And, it’s a business that comes with a house- you don’t have to buy a separate house….”
The new owners brought their business expertise and their families to operate these motels. They instituted modern accounting techniques to monitor the all-important cash flow. Four times cash flow became the mantra of the Patels. If the distressed motel produced $10,000 per year in revenues and could be acquired for $40,000, it was profitable for a hard-working family.
They renovated and upgraded the rundown motels to improve cash flow, sold the properties and traded up to better motels. This was not without difficulties. Conventional insurance companies wouldn’t provide coverage because they believed these immigrant owners would burn down their motels. In those days, banks were unlikely to provide mortgages either. The Patels had to finance each other and self-insure their properties.
In a July 4, 1999 New York Times article, reporter Tunku Varadarajan wrote, “The first owners, in a manner consistent with many an emergent immigrant group, scrimped, went without, darned old socks and never took a holiday. They did this not merely to save money but also because thrift is part of a larger moral framework, one that regards all nonessential expenditure as wasteful and unattractive. It’s an attitude buttressed by a puritanical aversion to frills and frivolities, one that has its roots as much in the kind of Hinduism that the Patels practice as in their historical tradition as commercial perfectionists.”
They bought, renovated, operated and resold motels mostly along the interstate highways. Soon, the name “Patel” became synonymous with the hotel business. Patels own motels in cities all over the U.S., including Canton (Texas, Mississippi, Michigan and Ohio), Burlington (Vermont, Iowa and North Carolina), Athens (Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama), Plainview (New York and Ohio) and Longview (Texas and Washington).
Author Joel Millman writes in The Other Americans (Viking Books):
“Patels took a sleepy, mature industry and turned it upside down- offering consumers more choices while making the properties themselves more profitable. Motels that attracted billions in immigrant savings turned into real estate equity worth many billions more. That equity, managed by a new generation, is being leveraged into new businesses. Some are related to lodging (manufacturing motel supplies); some related to real estate (reclaiming derelict housing); some simply cash seeking an opportunity. The Patel-motel model is an example, like New York’s West Indian jitneys, of the way immigrant initiative expands the pie. And there is another lesson: as the economy shifts from manufacturing to services, the Patel-motel phenomenon demonstrates how franchising can turn an outsider into a mainstream player. The Gujarati model for motels might be copied by Latinos in landscaping, West Indians in homecare or Asians in clerical services. By operating a turnkey franchise as a family business, immigrants will help an endless stream of service providers grow.”
As investment and ownership expanded, the Patels were accused of a wide variety of crimes: arson, laundering stolen travel checks, circumventing immigration laws. In an unpleasant burst of xenophobia,Frequent Flyer magazine (Summer 1981) declared, “Foreign investment has come to the motel industry…..causing grave problems for American buyers and brokers. Those Americans in turn are grumbling about unfair, perhaps illegal business practices: there is even talk of conspiracy.” The magazine complained that the Patels had artificially boosted motel prices to induce a buying frenzy. The article concluded with an unmistakable racist remark, “Comments are passed about motels smelling like curry and dark hints about immigrants who hire Caucasians to work the front desk.” The article concluded, “The facts are that immigrants are playing hardball in the motel industry and maybe not strictly by the rule book.” The worst visible manifestation of such racism was a rash of “American Owned” banners displayed in certain hotels across the country. This hateful display was repeated in post- Sept 11 America.
In my article, “How American-Owned Can You Get,” (Lodging Hospitality, August 2002), I wrote,
“In post-Sept. 11 America, signs of patriotism are everywhere: flags, slogans, God Bless America and United We Stand posters. Unfortunately, this outpouring sometimes oversteps the boundaries of democracy and decent behavior. After all, true patriotism encompasses the best features of our founding documents, and the very best of America is reflected in its diversity. Conversely, the worst if reflected when any one group attempts to define “American” in their own image. Unfortunately, a few hotel owners have attempted to describe their own peculiar version of “American.” When at the end of 2002 the Hotel Pennsylvania in New York City installed an entrance banner saying “an American-owned hotel,” the owners attempted to deflect criticism by explaining, “The issue of American-owned is basically not disparaging toward other hotels. We want to provide our guests with an American experience. We want people to know they are going to get an American experience. We are not really interested in what the other hotels are or what they are not.”
This explanation is as wrongheaded as it gets. What is an “American experience” in a country that prides itself on its cultural diversity? Is it only white bread, hot dogs and cola? Or does it encompass all the arts, music, dance, food, culture and activities that various nationalities and citizens bring to the American experience? How much more American can you get?”
Today AAHOA is the largest hotel owners association in the world. Its U.S. citizen members own one of every two hotels in the U.S. With billions of dollars in property assets and hundreds of thousands of employees, AAHOA-owned hotels are core contributors in virtually every community in the United States.
Excerpted from my book “Great American Hoteliers: Pioneers of the Hotel Industry” AuthorHouse 2009
The Roosevelt New Orleans Hotel (1893) is Encouraging Return of Stolen Items
Participants who return such items will be eligible to win a seven-night stay in one of the hotel’s lavish presidential suites, worth over $15,000. The Roosevelt plans to display the items in its lobby, as a record of the hotel’s history. The campaign called the “Historic Giveback Contest” has been launched to celebrate the hotel’s 125th birthday. Former guests have until July 1, 2019 to return items by dropping them off at the concierge desk or sending them in the mail, said General Manager Tod Chambers.

Just so you guys know what the most recent government experiment is. First Area 51, then chem trails, then Polybius, now mind-damaging workout videos. At least 6 people have gone brain death in some way associated with this full routine. Perhaps this is part of their plan to destabilize foreign governments by destroying the cognitive capabilities of the unsuspecting masses using the modern internet? Spread via VHS tapes? Does a digital version of the full set exist? Or is this just a harbinger of things to come?

THIS HAPPENED TO MY COUSINS.
They got a boxed set of the LOWO tapes at a yard sale, thought they looked funny, I don’t know. Picked them up on monday. Told us they were going to carpool up to my parents house for sunday dinner with us, but on sunday, they didnt come outside. We honked, called, nothing. We just went without them.
Then we heard that they had missed all of their college classes from some mutual friends. Somebody went over- found them standing in the living room, staring at the tv. They were barely moving, looked like they hadnt eaten in days, one was mumbling something over and over again. Hospitalized for three days each. Neither had any memory of what happened or why they were just standing there. Chucked all the tapes though.
So do at your own risk. Im not going to!

Upfronts 2018 (ABC): Nuevas series, renovaciones y cancelaciones
Tumblr media
Solo cuatro de las once series nuevas que encargó ABC el año pasado han conseguido una renovación. Incluso sus tres series estrenadas en verano, que se encargaron hace dos años, no pasaron el filtro. La cadena sigue dando palos de ciego mandando a la basura trece pilotos y esperando un milagro como el del regreso de Roseanne. Entre sus novedades destacan el fichaje de Lauren Cohan, que aparecerá en seis episodios más de The Walking Dead y tiene permiso para firmar nuevos acuerdos con AMC, y la fecha de estreno de Take Two, que se encargó en noviembre y comienza a emitirse el próximo mes de junio.
A Million Little Things
Tumblr media
El drama se centra en un grupo de amigos de Boston, con vidas totalmente distintas pero todas estancadas, que deciden empezar a vivir de verdad tras la inesperada muerte de uno de ellos. Protagonizada por David Giuntoli (Grimm), Ron Livingston (Loudermilk, Search Party), Romany Malco (Weeds, Blunt Talk), Allison Miller (Go On, 13 Reasons Why), Christina Moses (The Originals, Condor), Christina Ochoa (Valor, Animal Kingdom), James Roday (Psych), Stephanie Szostak (Satisfaction, Iron Man 3) y Lizzy Greene (Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn). Escrito y producido por DJ Nash (Growing Up Fisher, Truth Be Told) y dirigido por James Griffiths (The Mayor, Episodes).
A favor: No tendría nada de malo que encontrásemos otro drama lacrimógeno.
En contra: También se quiere aprovechar del éxito de This Is Us.
Whiskey Cavalier (MIDSEASON)
Tumblr media
Will Chase (Scott Foley; Scandal, Grey's Anatomy) es un agente del FBI con nombre en clave 'Whiskey Cavalier' que, tras una ruptura sentimental, comienza a trabajar con la agente de la CIA Francesca 'Frankie' Trowbridge (Lauren Cohan; The Walking Dead, The Vampire Diaries), con nombre en clave 'Fiery Tribune'. Juntos lideran un equipo de espías heroicos, divertidos e imperfectos que salvan el mundo cada semana mientras testan sus amistades, amoríos y relaciones laborales. Completan el reparto Ana Ortiz (Ugly Betty, Devious Maids), Tyler James Williams (Everybody Hates Chris, Dear White People) y Vir Das. Escrita por Dave Hemingson (Just Shot Me!, Pepper Ann) y producida por Foley. 
A favor: Ya era hora de que Lauren Cohan buscase otro camino.
En contra: No estamos seguros de que este camino sea el correcto, aunque por probar...
Grand Hotel (MIDSEASON)
Tumblr media
Adaptación de la española Gran Hotel que nos enseña el último hotel de Miami Beach dirigido por una familia. El carismático Santiago Mendoza (Demián Bichir, The Bridge, Weeds) es el dueño, y su segunda esposa (Roselyn Sanchez; Devious Maids, Without a Trace) y sus hijos adultos se aprovechan de su éxito aportando escándalos, deudas y secretos a este hotel de fachada lujosa. Completan el cast Denyse Tontz (The Fosters, Incorporated), Bryan Craig (Valor, General Hospital), Wendy Raquel Robinson (The Game, The Steve Harvey Show), Shalim Ortiz (Señora Acero, Heroes), Anne Winters (Tyrant, 13 Reasons Why), Chris Warren (High School Musical, The Fosters), Feliz Ramirez y Justina Adorno (Seven Seconds). Escrita por Brian Tanen (Devious Maids, Desperate Housewives) y producida por Eva Longoria.
A favor: Es una visión contemporánea, se espera más fresca.
En contra: Vaya protagonistas.
The Fix (MIDSEASON)
Tumblr media
Thriller legal escrito y producido por la fiscal Marcia Clark, a la que conocemos gracias al juicio de O.J. Simpson. En él, Maya Travis (Robin Tunney; The Mentalist, Prison Break), fiscal del distrito de Los Ángeles, sufre una gran derrota en el juicio al famoso actor Sevvy Johnson (Adewale Akinnouye-Agbaje; Lost, Oz) por doble asesinato y, tras perder el control de su carrera, viaja a Washington a disfrutar una vida más tranquila. Ocho años después, Johnson es sospechoso de otro asesinato y Maya vuelve a Los Ángeles buscando una segunda oportunidad de hacer justicia. Completan el reparto Adam Rayner (Tyrant, Notorious), Merrin Dungey (Big Little Lies, The Resident), Breckin Meyer (Franklin & Bash, Garfield), Marc Blucas (Underground, Necessary Roughness), Mouzam Makkar (Champions, The Exorcist), Alex Saxon (The Fosters, Finding Carter) y Scott Cohen (Necessary Roughness, Gilmore Girls).
A favor: Ya nos convence mínimamente si tiene un pedacito del alma de Marcia.
En contra: Puede ser un despropósito. Depende de la historia, de los guiones.
Single Parents
Tumblr media
Comedia monocámara sobre un grupo de padres solteros que conocen a Will (Taran Killam; Saturday Night Live, How I Met Your Mother), un hombre que se ha centrado tanto en criar a su hija que ya no tiene citas, y le ayudan a ver que ser padre no tiene por qué significar perder tu identidad y no te impide disfrutar de la vida. Estos padres son Leighton Meester (Gossip Girl), Kimrie Lewis (Scandal), Jake Choi (Younger) y Brad Garrett (Everybody Loves Raymond, Fargo) y sus hijos son Marlow Barkley, Tyler Wladis (A Christmas Story Live!), Devin Trey Campbell y Grace y Sadie Hazelett. Creada por JJ Philbin y Liz Meriwether (New Girl).
A favor: Mostrar que ser padre no pone fin a tu vida social.
En contra: Todo lo demás.
The Kids Are Alright
Tumblr media
En los años setenta, en un barrio obrero a las afueras de Los Ángeles, Mike (Michael Cudlitz; The Walking Dead, Southland) y Peggy Cleary (Mary McCormack; The West Wing, Falling Water) crían a sus ocho hijos revoltosos. Son una familia irlandesa católica que vive los cambios de una de las décadas más turbulentas de la historia estadounidense, y su vida no volverá a ser la misma a partir del anuncio de su hijo mayor (Sam Straley). Completan el cast Caleb Martin Foote, Sawyer Barth (Public Morals), Christopher Paul Richards (Billions; Me, Myself & I), Jack Gore, Andy Walken (A Christmas Story Live!) y Santino Barnard. Inspirada en la niñez de Tim Doyle (Dinosarus, Last Man Standing), guionista y productor.
A favor: Si es inspirada en hechos reales, al menos tendrá más credibilidad que todo lo que acostumbramos a ver en esta cadena.
En contra: Cuánto niño.
Schooled (MIDSEASON)
Tumblr media
Ambientada en los años noventa, el spin-off de The Goldbergs sigue a Lainey (AJ Michalka), la novia de Barry, y a los profesores Glascott (Tim Meadows) y Mellor (Bryan Callen), que, a pesar de sus excentricidades y locas vidas personales, son héroes para sus alumnos. Trece episodios.
A favor: Explotar una marca se supone que trae buenos resultados.
En contra: Nia Long abandonó el proyecto por NCIS: LA y tuvieron que cambiar de personaje protagonista a última hora con dudoso resultado.
The Rookie
Tumblr media
Inspirada en una historia real y protagonizada y producida por Nathan Fillion (Castle, Firefly), trata sobre un hombre que decide mudarse a Los Ángeles para ser policía y comienza como un novato rodeado de gente veinte años más joven. Le acompañan Melissa O'Neil (Dark Matter), Afton Williamson (The Night Of, Banshee), Eric Winter (Witches of East End, Rosewood), Richard T. Jones (Narcos, Santa Clarita Diet), Titus Makin (The Path, Pretty Little Liars), Alyssa Diaz (Ray Donovan, Zoo) y Mercedes Mason (Fear The Walking Dead). Escrita por Alexi Hawley (Castle, The Following).
A favor: Algo se nos ocurrirá si nos dais unos meses.
En contra: Es deprimente. Y encima le buscan un amorío de veinte años menos.
Take Two
Ella (Rachel Bilson; The O.C., Hart of Dixie) es la antigua protagonista de una serie de policías que, tras una juerga de proporciones épicas, ha tenido que abandonar la rehabilitación. Desesperada por retomar su carrera, se convierte en la sombra de un detective privado (Eddie Cibrian; CSI: Miami, Rosewood) usándolo como investigación para la interpretación de algún futuro papel. Aunque él no está muy dispuesto a trabajar de niñero, la chica demuestra su valía gracias a doscientos episodios ejerciendo de detective, y la prensa se encarga de promocionar a la pareja como un dúo muy solvente. Es una procedimental de Andrew W. Marlowe, el creador de Castle, que cuenta también con Aliyah O'Brien (Beyond, Bates Motel), Alice Lee (Faking It, Switched at Birth) y Xavier de Guzman.
A favor: Es Castle con los géneros cambiados.
En contra: Es Castle con los géneros cambiados.
Por último, ¿qué pilotos no se han convertido en serie?
False Profits, con Bellamy Young y Vanessa Williams, queda bajo contención, se han encargado nuevos guiones y puede que reciba encargo para midseason. Por su parte, la comedia de Kenya Barris que la cadena encargó en diciembre volvió a fase de piloto cuando Alec Baldwin leyó el guion y rechazó protagonizarla, y salió del ciclo de pilotos por los problemas para encontrar un nuevo protagonista. Tal vez nunca llegue a realizarse.
For Love
Get Christie Love, con Kylie Bunbury
Salvage, con Catalina Sandino Moreno
Staties
The Finest, con Eric Balfour
The Mission
Crazy Wonderful, con Brooke Elliott
How May We Hate You, con Kat Dennings y Angela Kinsey
Man of the House, con Alyson Hannigan
Most Likely To, con Yvette Nicole Brown
Southern Hospitality, con John Larroquette
Steps, con Ginnifer Goodwin

Renovaciones
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. nos hizo sufrir hasta el último momento y volverá con una sexta temporada de trece episodios. For the People y Splitting Up Together también han sido renovadas porque había que renovar algo, pero apostamos a que no pasarán de la segunda temporada.

Agenda semanal
La ficción desaparece de los domingos de ABC, que emitirá nada más y nada menos que diez comedias de media hora a la semana. Los jueves seguirán siendo propiedad de Shonda. Fresh Off the Boat y Speechless, ambas producidas por FOX, se marchan al viernes, quizás para intentar competir con Last Man Standing. Siguen confiando en The Good Doctor para llenar el hueco de Castle, así que Nathan Fillion tendrá que probar suerte el martes. The Kids Are Alright queda emparejada con Roseanne, que volverá en otoño. Take Two se estrena el próximo mes de junio. En cambio, For the People y Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. tendrán que esperar a la midseason junto con el resto de novedades.
