In August 1982, a small group of visionaries at the WLIR radio station knew they couldn’t compete with the mega-stations in NYC. The crew and biggest artists of the era tell the story of how they battled the FCC and the record labels in New Wave: Dare to be Different, which premieres March 30. U2, Talking Heads, Depeche Mode, Blondie, Duran Duran, Tears for Fears, The Clash, The Cure – over half a billion records sold, but you might have never heard of them if not for a small suburban radio station on Long Island, NY called WLIR 92.7. NEW WAVE: DARE TO BE DIFFERENT, premiering on SHOWTIME on Friday, March 30 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on-air, on demand and over the internet, is a nostalgic look back at the rogue radio station on the cutting edge of music throughout the 1980s.

The Walking Dead – “The Lost and the Plunderers” Review. What the Hell is Going On?
Am I alone in my confusion? I can’t be the only person to find something amiss with The Walking Dead. Watching “The Lost and the Plunderers” put me further into a confused state of mind as I tried to figure out where the hell the writers are going this season. The cryptic, pseudo-future scenes that have been peppered throughout the season are nothing more than the imagined alternate reality Carl (Chandler Riggs) dreamed up in his head. It’s not going to happen. No matter how much the various groups try, that delusional utopian vision will not come to fruition. The kumbaya combined colonization of AKH (Alexandria, Kingdom, Hilltop groups), The Saviors, Oceanside, hell, even the Scavengers, aka the “garbage people,” won’t happen. If it does, that will be the end of The Walking Dead; everyone getting along, picking veggies from the garden, with only walkers to contend with sounds boring.
